Other stocks I wanted to get your opinions on.

Here are a few of the stocks I am interested in - I jsut want to get your opinions:

SIX (http://quote.barchart.com/chart.asp?sym=six&code=BCMM)- I think I missed the boat on Six Flags. I wanted to but it at $6 but I missed it and now it is up to like 6.20. I guess I could still get it but I fear that it does not have a whole lot of room to gro. I am guessing $7 would be good for it. Do you think it is worth a buy still?

WMT (http://quote.barchart.com/chart.asp?sym=WMT&code=BCMM) - Walmart. I see the busness they do first hand. Their stock is pretty stable and they are makign headway with new stores i nother countries. I have also heard talk about them opening smaller stores in the US markets to compete in areas where a mega-walmart does nto exist or jsut will not fit. Cramer thinks they are going to $50 and I was hoping for even more. What do you guys think?

ETIM (http://quote.barchart.com/chart.asp?sym=ETIM%20&code=BCMM) - It is a penny stock but I have heard a lot of good things about. I am in for 200,000 shares and I see it as a long term hold. I have been htinking abotu maybe gettign up to 500,000 shares but I am not sure if I want to have that much money in a long term risky stock....

ICE (http://quote.barchart.com/chart.asp?sym=ice&code=BCMM)- This stock is a crazy one. It is up and down about 2-4 dollars each day. I am thinking if it gets to the $120 range I should buy as much as possiable and sell when it gets to the high 130 or low 140 range. I jsut don't think I have enough cash to make the buy-sell work. Do you think it would be a good idea to sell this stock short when it gets to the $140 range and buy it back when in the low 130s and then sell it again when it gets to the 140 range?




My 3 biggest errors yet -

1) I had the chance to buy CROX (http://quote.barchart.com/chart.asp?sym=crox&code=BCMM) a few months ago at 44 dollars a share. I jsut said how can a sandle company get much higher. Today they sit at $71+ I should have purchased it........

2) DSTI (http://quote.barchart.com/chart.asp?sym=DSTI&code=BCMM) - I hate this stock but can't let go yet cause it am so far in the hole with it. I woudl be happy to break even at this point I jsut don't want to see it head in the negative anymore.

3) I had purchased AMTD (http://quote.barchart.com/chart.asp?sym=AMTD&code=BCMM) at line $15 something and sold it when it hit $17. Not it is in the 18s and I wish I still had it... Darn

ICE--This stock has been a great stock to trade for me. Even though I have missed some big runs. I think you are smart to buy in the 120's if it gets back down there, but I would be careful trying to short it. Unless you were doing it just for a day. The problem is that there is speculation on consolidation in the exchange sector. ICE could get a bid and your short would be killed. Or a rumor could send the stock up huge in a day. I think that is why it moves so much now. Anyway just be careful on the shorts and don't hold them over night or especially over a weekend.

I'd pass on WMT. I thought about buying them several years ago, but passed on the idea. The stock hasn't done much in the past 5 years. And their dividend isn't that large.

With their large market cap, I don't see them growing much more. They failed with their expansion into Germany and South Korea. They also failed trying to compete with Netflix in the DVD rental business. And I believe they have given up trying to get into the banking business.

My advice is to shop at Walmart and Sam's Club and use the money you save to buy other stocks. Good luck.

Well Walmart is the one I had purchased but so fat it has done doen a dollar since I got it. I am thinkign about droppign it as it's charts don't look good but on the otehr hand maybe I will jsut hold it for long term and sell when it goes back up. It may not be a huge gainer but I think it will eventually go back up to the 49-50 level.
