    I’m investing in 1 long shot for gain only, not long term hold.
    It’s a pink sheet stock. (Risky)
    Symbol: CCTC $23.25 per share at the close today.
    I purchased on 12-20-07 at $18.50 per share.
    Up $4.75 per share in less than 1 month.
    It’s a company that can make coal 85% clean burning.
    It’s been awarded a large contract in China recently.
    Nothing in the US for the company though.
    Peabody Coal Compnay in the US is working on this technology but so far I believe they make coal only 45% clean burning.
    I figure that any company that has a process to reduce coal emmissions in the air by 85% is worth a shot. Many people do not realize how much coal is used to provide energy for us.
    It’s a gamble I’m comfortable in taking.

    To start off I would like to say that the first answer was dumb.

    Secondly, I believe patience is key in the stock market.

    Thirdly, the stock market is very bearish of late so Shorting stocks is a possibility.

    Lastly, I would look at all and I mean ALL solar stocks right now and keep track of them. They are all coming down so if you want to short them go for it. If not wait for them to bounce back and pounce on them (i.e. bounce and pounce strategy)

    Stocks are more predictable than you think and if you keep track of them daily you can get a good idea of where they are headed.

    Just remember that no one ever bet enough money on the winning horse so don’t get greedy.

    Also, Bulls make money, bears make money, but hogs get slaughtered as the saying goes.

    Well, if you outlook is only to May, I would go with a basket of the most beaten stocks of late. Basically the financials… Bear Sterns, Citi, BofA, Merrill, Wamu, etc.

    If you buy now, you will more than likely be buying at or near a bottom and by May should see significant appreciation.

    If I have a decision quickly to invest, I would invest in solid companies, Johnson & Johnson as an example. Because in times like these where everybody is talking about a ressecion,. You don’t know which companies will suffer the most, other smaller companyies might go bankrupt. So stick with the blue ships.

    This doesn’t mean that the price of these stock will not drop, it might will, but there is not fundamental reason for them to drop dramatically.

    My advice is to wait, just wait, until you have a clear vision to the future at least one or two years. because now no one knows what will happen..

    Good Luck

    I like the second guys answer, But i would also look at gold and mining companies. many pepole are predicting the market to continue its downward trends, when this happens the dollar will go down. Gold and silver go up. proof is in the current price of gold. It has gone from 300-400 an ounce to almost 900 an ounce in the last few years

  6. Barney Says:

    Short sell the financials, retail and housing. In my opinion the banks are the major cause of this debacle. Ya might as well make some dough shorting them on their way down.
