What are the best five stocks to invest in right now?
I want to invest in a stock that is stable but is definitely gonna go up, any ideas?

I regret that I do not know the 5 best for right now. I will be glad to share what I do know with you however. For stable stocks choose bank stocks. The reason being that they tend to have earnings that do not fluctuate greatly but do tend to increase steadily. In fact Standard and Poors gives their very best rating A+ to more bank stocks than any orther type of industry.

Another thing bank stocks have going for them is that many tend to increase their dividends annually an average of about 10%.
Banks that fall into this category include BBT, BAC, USB, C. There are many others.

In fact there are a total of 12 banks that pay better than a 3% dividend and are rated A+ by S&P. Only 3 non-banks.

However, even given these parameters that does not mean that bank stocks may not fall in price. They can and do fall in price frequently just like other stocks.

Also it would be a mistake to invest more than say 20% of your investments in bank stocks. It is much better to be well diversified. Diversity in itself adds stability and also enhances the probablity that your investments will increase in value.

no stock will definitely go up! best you look at the blue chip stocks and research their history - Yahoo has a finance site that may help you or look up Schwab- remember to diversify between stocks and bonds

AKAM, MSFT, AAPL, LNOP & GG

Don't go for specific stocks---the risk may not be worth it. Instead, invest in an overall portfolio with a mixture of equities, mutual funds, & bonds. There are companies that have preset plans, each with their own degree of risk involved...but your chances of TOO MUCH RISK are greatly lowered through these investments. I have mine through LPL--and I'm very pleased.

ENER (solar panels), MIND (seismic equipment for oil companies), BIDU (chinese search engine), CHK (natural gas), TWRT.ob (wind towers).

That is a pretty balanced mix. I own 4 of the 5. I don't own BIDU - it is expensive but I like their prospects.

Maybe put these on your radar.

EGY, Vaalco Energy. 98 percent sales growth last 3 yrs, 297 percent profit growth last 3 yr average, 35 percent return on invested capital, and 37 percent return on equity.

HANS, Hansen Natural. 56 percent sales growth last 3 yrs, 187 percent profit growth last 3 yr average, 31 percent return on invested capital, and 50 percent return on equity.

PMTI, Palomar Medical Technologies. 44 percent sales growth last 3 yrs, 600 percent profit growth last 3 yr average, 31 percent return on invested capital, and 33 percent return on equity.

Recent prices are, respectively, $7.98, $33.20, and $51.69. Interested?

Oh, yeah, 5, then add ETFs NY and PXN to the list. They are the top 100 (market capitalization) of the NYSE and the Powershares Nanotech index--some amazing things coming from that.
