Chicken stock.  :)  Because it makes the best mashed tators.

I like eTrade for their web site design. It's easy to navigate and see your account info in real-time. If you trade enough, trades are as low as $9.99. It's also nice to have it integraded with eTrade Bank. If I ever need to withdraw money from my brokerage, I just transfer it to my eTrade checking and write myself a check. (or pay $25 for a wire or $5 to have a check mailed). I have had no problems getting through to a live person and the support seems pretty good. They are a lot more friendly than Waterhouse's.\n\nI like Scottrade for their $7 trades\n\nWaterhouse is OK. I never liked their web design and not being able to see my account in real-time.

As opposed to what?\n\nI think you're asking the wrong question, and you give no indication of market knowledge or direction.\n\nIs this stock going to buck the downtrend in the stock market? Today, we are finally getting a bounce after a 900 pt decline. Are you calling the bottom here in the market? \n\nYour money is probably better off where it is, regardless of which stock you've heard to be recommended or the latest hot pick.

STX has too many insider-sales! NWS might be a good buy with their Myspace.com addition. NEM seems on the surface too expensive.

Chicken stock or vegie stock.

As of a week ago I would have said CMG, Chipotle Mexican Grill. Now I am saying you will have to wait until the stock splits and get it at the lower price. They still have huge growth possibilities, so any price is a good price but not all investors can pay $65 a share.

I believe in investing in the long run and actually prefer investing a diversified portfolio with funds allocated to each asset class by a specified percentage.\n\nBut I do set aside 10% of my portfolio as "play money" for me to invest in individual stocks.  If you want long-term growth that you won't loose sleep, I believe the solid companies to invest now are Barclays Bank ADR (BCS), Honda (HMC), Toyota (TM), Starbucks (SBUX) and Audible (ADBL).  These are arranged from the least risky to the most risky.

Try Morningstar (MORN) and Ruth Christie (RUTH). Also, Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and NYSE (I think it is NSE)

pennystocks are one of my hobbies and it is an exciting and risky one.  I use a variety of sites like allpennystocks.com and hotpennystocks.com to stockhouse.com.  I like to watch volume and cetain trends in the marketplace.  I also watch the OTC news bulletin for interesting articles and business ideas.

No this stock isn't going anywhere for at least 1 yr.  If you are looking long term it might be good, but there are way better bull markets out there for that kind of risk potential.  Check out SMSI and KAL for a couple of small companies with great potential.

I use Ameritrade and its pretty good. Check it out.

You need only ask yourself one question and you shall have your answer. \n\nIf you knew which stocks were going up and when, why would you want to tell anybody for any price?\n\nThere you have, enough said?

This is a great starting place.  http://www.pinksheets.com\n\nJust remember, low priced stocks are low priced for a reason!  Good luck!!

Motley Fool is a good source

I'm a fan of Jim Cramer's Action Alerts Plus. Cramer tells people "Don't just buy what I suggest. Do some research on your own." He explains (in everyday language) why he thinks certain stocks will do well or not.\n\nWatch "Mad Money" on CNBC. If you like Cramer, then try a free trial of the newsletter.\n\nI agree with previous answers, most newsletters are crap.
