well it would help if you say which 4 weeks you are gearing up for. Most are paying divedends and capital gains on the 15th so you want high fliers there. One I am seriously looking at is an ETF Powershares High yield (PEY) a 4% dividend and it will pay on the 15th. However if you start AFTER the 15th then look at QQQQ (Nasdaq 100 ETF) Microsoft will be clicking in janunary and will boost intel and others as Vista users will be upgrading their systems to handle the new software.
four weeks to is too short though and if you start before the 15th load up on dividend paying stocks (at least 4% or better) |

PDRT, ENCY, NHWK, POZN...... All have potential of making someone a lot of money over te next 4 weeks. Remember that since you only have such a short time you have to look at stocks that are volitile and involve risk. The more risk the more potential for money over the short term. Good luck! |

Forget dividend stocks. You only have four weeks, and a 4% dividend OVER AN ENTIRE YEAR will get you nowhere.
One poster is right that currently, oil and bank stocks are rising.
The best answer is that, if you're looking only at the next month, you should completely ignore the company. Only look at the stock. The stocks most likely to move up the fastest in the next four weeks are the ones that are already at, or very close to, their yearly highs. Look at stocks like ICE, GROW, FFIV. You can also find free screening programs on the Internet you can use to find stocks. Then pick the ones that are at their highest prices, preferably the ones that have moved up at least 50% since early August (the most recent bottom of the market).
You should NOT invest this way with real money. Real investing is much riskier and difficult than people imagine. It's great that you're learning about investing right now, in school. |

Lately, I have been buying ENER - they make batteries for hybrid cars. For a quick gain, try MIND or TGC.

Include Citigroup in your choices, there is a rumor that very soon there will be a formal announcement that they'll be split apart and the stock price will increase even more. Some of the heaviest volume in years traded last week on the stock:

Also try to include many small-cap stocks with rumors of great business deals being made within the next 4 weeks. |
