If you dabble in the stock market, do you have any choice picks of cheap stocks that look like they're on the rise?

Asked by FGS (1932points) May 11th, 2009

I just started playing with this and have been moderately successful, I’m looking for some good picks.

@YARNLADY I was looking for something a bit more on the small side. When I said I dabble, I really mean just dabble.

@FGS One share is only $18. We currently have a 5% trailing stop order.

@YARNLADY I may look at more closely later, but for now I think its best for me to think small and make a bit of a profit before I delve into something bigger….I have limited funds that I’m working with.

Could you be a little more specific? I don’t see how you can get much smaller. PM me if you want.

@YARNLADY I can buy 200 shares of $.20 cent stock that goes to $.65 and make a $130 profit or 11 shares of $18 stock that goes to $18.45 and make a $4.95 profit…does that clear it up?

Go to Las Vegas. Any stock $5 a share is a gamble, so have at it.

@YARNLADY All stocks are a gamble, but they pay off needs to be worth the risk.

@FGS Gamble? Maybe, but Hubby does a lot of research into the companies we invest in, he is one of the smartest investors in the country, and has been recognized in many ‘lay’ investor groups.
