  1. From the Archives — Four “Black Market” Stocks You Need to Own September 30, 2009

    In 1975, legendary speculator and billionaire George Soros told a Wall Street Journal reporter, “We start with the assumption that the stock market is always wrong.” I always take the stock market’s reaction with a grain of salt. This is why I see such promise in a certain tech company’s recent fall from grace — that could show you big gains by following Soros’ lead. After all, Soros recently snapped up 2.8 million shares of the company I’m about to describe.

  2. From the Archives — Black Market Stock Dealers Guide September 30, 2009

    Making money in “Black Market” stocks is about more than just buying and selling at the best prices. Yes, that’s the biggest part — but there’s another side to making money that most people overlook. Say you buy 500 shares of a $1 stock. Then six months later, it jumps to $2, so you decide to sell. That’s a quick double, right? Not really. In fact, your total gains could be anywhere between 88–98%. The difference depends on how much commission you had to pay to make each trade. Commission is the money you pay to your broker to execute a trade. That means you owe him money every time you buy or sell a stock. Yep, he gets you coming and going. But not all brokers charge the same commissions. And shopping for the best deal can have a big impact on your bottom line. For small-cap stock investors, a good broker is an absolute must. Choosing wisely can be the difference between making 30% a year and barely breaking even. Luckily, there have never been more options for investors. This is both a blessing and a curse: Prices are lower and investor services are more personalized, but there is much more information to digest before making a decision. Read this before investing your hard-earned money, and do some of your own research. You can’t afford to take chances on the “wrong” broker. We’ve designed this report to give you a head start — comparing commissions, fee structures and balance requirements, including phone numbers, Web addresses and notes on the specific services they offer. Please remember, this guide is for information purposes only — and it’s just your first step to choosing a broker. We do not favor one broker over another, and it’s up to you to decide which one meets your needs. Don’t simply choose the one with the lowest price — also consider how frequently you plan on trading…how much independent research you’d like access to…and even how much trading assistance you think you’ll need. You might discover it’s worth paying a little more. Finally, while every effort has been made to keep the information as up-to-date as possible, prices and other data are subject to change. So make sure to check before you sign up with any broker.

  7. Our Latest Pharmaceutical Play Makes for Exciting Investing September 4, 2009

    Shares of our latest pharma stock are up nearly 11% today after OptionMONSTER.com co-founder and CNBC regular John Najarian went on Squawk Box this morning to talk about the company’s potential. Najarian, who owns call options on our pick, said that fears about H1N1 could provide a lot of profit potential for the company’s shareholders. “When you talk about swine flu -- or H1N1, as we call it now -- if they recalibrate [their affected products] and bring [them] back out, I still think there’s a lot of upside in that stock. We’ve seen a lot of institutional buying in there,” he said. We agree with Najarian’s outlook. This stock has pushed up several times since our recommendation, and it’s making the short sellers nervous. The next big push could easily squeeze the shorts, forcing them to buy shares to cover their positions and pushing this company’s share price higher.
