Genetic engineering companies. Oh, sure....everybody says "No, no, we shouldn't do things like that." But the rich will fund that research and it WILL grow as an industry.

Personally I like beef stock. :) There are alot of tv shows on CNBC that discuss the hot picks and give reasons. I have no preference and would rather have the security of averages with a mutual fund than individual stock. I believe in "don't put all your eggs in one basket."

I agree with Ryan. Energy Conversion Devices, symbol ENER, is the next great stock. I own it. I might buy more. They make solar panels, batteries for hybrids, and a new type of computer memory. Here is a summary of their business:

There is no single great stock to invest in. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. If you ask 100 people what stock to invest with, likely you will get 100 different answers. If you want someone to make or give investment advice, based it on their personal experience and the return given by that experience. I don't make my own decisions on individual stocks, because I don't have enough time, resources, or knowledge to make educated choices. Money managers of mutual funds do. And they are paid based on the performance of their fund, unlike stock brokers which are paid for transactions, so they have an interest in doing a great job. I don't choose stocks, I choose money managers, I look for two things when choosing a manager: 1) someone who has experience (10 yrs or more), 2)and that persons fund has performed well.

If your looking to invest right now, I'd highly recommend, as a fellow investor, any stock that is related to Bio-Techonology or Vaccine Production.

Bio-Technology is a hot sector right now, in the sense that some seriously heavy investing is taking place. This is mainly because of the intense debate on whether or not diseases such as Avian Bird Flu, SARS and Ebola will spawn or worsen in teh upcoming year of 2007. The ripe time for bird flu news is shortly after January, when the reports are generally released to the public. Take it this way:

Last Year, I was considering purchasing 1500.00 worth of GNBT stock(TICKER SYMBOL), but decided against it, because of lack of strong growth(or so I thought). When news of the Bird Flu Pandemic coming(Ha, Ha, Ha), investors flocked by the thousands to this one company, of which, ironically, was devolping medicines to help combat this flu. The share price went from 1.10 a share(HA,HA,HA, what was I thinking), to a 4 year high of over 5.25 a share. Ridiculious. I went nuts. I missed out on over 6,000 profit. Not missing it this year....

The other hot sector this year/upcomign year, is the vaccines for these disease(vaccines and treatments are different.) Right now, I would strongly advise watching a stock named VXGN. Look it up for the next two weeks. VXGN stands for Vax Gen. Vax Gen Corporation is currently devolping an incredible anthrax vaccine for the united states goverment. It was awarded the option of an 877.1 million dollar deal. Now, something went wrong with the vaccine though. They have until the 18th of december to prove it will still work, or else the deal leaves. Now don't buy in until they prove it still works. But if the company announces it works, expect a huge soar in share price. Advisors are recommending a top price of close to 28.00 a share by next January if it works. Now take into consideration it's trading at 1.45 a share now, and do the math. If they say the vaccine works, and it does, you can invest 10,000.00, get 6896 shares, resell at maybe 22.00 a share(honestly, don't hold on until 28. Most investors will sell way lower than that. It would probably never stay that high). You would have a total gross income of 193,088.00 and a net income(after expense and tax) of about 159,917.00(taxed at 12%).

Please though, don't ever take my word, or the word of someone elses when choosing what to trade. Alway, ALWAYS, check & evaluate the company yourself. And NEVER, NEVER, NEVER invest in just one stock. At most, one stock should only equal 25% of your portfolio, assuming you have just 1500.00 in the market. If you have 15000, then it should be even less, maybe just 10%, if not just 5%.

ENER or ESLR

Please don't ask for stock recommendation, how do you know the motivation of people who answer the question? My advice is that before you dive into the murky waters of stock investing try to educate yourself, there' s a lot investing web sites and a lot of good books that will teach you the basics including risk assessment. Take it from someone who's been there, lost money and then started self education. The results of education are paying off! There's much more to investing then buying stock on a tip. As one of my teachers, Jim Cramer of Mad Money (CNBC) and Real Money (his excellent book) says "Tips are for waiters". You just need to do your homework.
