Research, read news and go to their website. Learn about the company before you invest. Much like with any company you plan on investing in.

Day traders are people who trade several times a day.

I use credential direct for my real time and level 2 quotes. I don't see any point in having real time quotes unless you are holding penny stocks and/or you are a day trader.

I don't think GCC will be going up for a while. Finacially they are dead broke from expansion.

Personally look into Gateway Casino stock, i think they will overide GCC in the future.

everyone should be looking to get into hurricane relief companies, the season is acting up and we have a hurricane on the way if anything goes like last years or even a fraction of last years hurricanes we will be doing very well. It wont be hard to see at least a 200% gain within the next few weeks.

Ahahaha...who bought CYTX yesterday? It went up 16% before closing at 10.4% up ($4.24 to 4.68).

Buying alternative energy and alternative fuel stock is a good move right now with the Democrats taking the house. Stem cell and genetics are down but should go up in the next little while. Also, watch TTEK and ADM. ADM was up 5.5% today and TTEK up 2%. Good alternative fuel companies.

If you have 5 000 - 10 000 to invest, What would you put it on now or very soon?

It could also be less 1000 - 2000

Oil, but it's recovered after being down a few months ago. It'll be a strong bet during the summer of 07 to hold during peak driving season. I made some decent gains on HSE (Husky).

If you want Tech AAPL is strong but again its high right now. If it drops into the low 70's i'll probably pick it up again. I bought it when it was in the 60's and sold it when it hit the low 80's.

Dupont keeps rising. It's up 4 points today (almost 2 bucks a share). If you need a blue chip stock, this is it.

Lucent Technologies seems like a good buy right now as well.

i have a question for ppl that are pretty experience dealing with stocks and the market

i have some money saved up in GICs right now earning around 3% interest

i know some stocks that have dividend yields of 4% to 4.5%. If the stock is a relatively "safe" company such as a bank, wouldnt putting my GIC money into that stock earn me more interest and better yet, in the long term if the stock price goes up, i make some money from selling the stock?

i'm aware that i get taxed on the dividend payment but still, wouldnt i better off with the stock rather than GICs?
