What are some good short-term stocks to invest in?
491431
Investing in stocks usually is not mend to be short-term, unless you want to day trade, what I wouldn't advise if you do not have lots of expertise in the business and, if you have to ask the question you asked, you probably haven't.

I like Dell stock, but I don't think I would buy it here.  It has come up from $19 only recently.  I think the easy money has been made.  That said, Dell is still a fantastic company.  I own 3 Dell computers.  \n\nIf you are looking for investment ideas, I think the first thing to do is see what the best traders are buying and selling.  this is the idea behind http://www.top10traders.com - this is a free site that lets you create a portfolio of stocks with $100,000 in "play" money.  Each day the site ranks the best performing portfolios, so you can see how your picks perform compared to other investors.  You can also read posts on investing from the best traders, as well as share your own investing ideas.\n\nHere are this month's best traders:\n\nhttp://www.top10traders.com/Top10Standings.aspx\n\nGood luck!

You can't buy options in that short a time frame, assuming that I understand your question correctly... and what strike price are you looking for?

Buy a one month subscription to stockcharts.com for twenty bucks.  Use their advanced scan engine to search for stocks with a large average true range (ATR).\n\nThe list will change over time as trading activity changes.

They could stay overbought for months or even years!\n\nHave you considered the "short sale" of companies that are flaky and poorly managed but have inflated stock values?

There aren't a lot of quality stocks under $5, but I'll see what I can find for you.  My advice, though, is to broaden your limits a little.  If you're willing to pay up to $8 or $9, you'll find a much larger universe of quality growing companies.  Most of what you find under $5 is garbage, with a few good possibilities in the mix.

Bonds and T-bills, Low risk, decent returns.

I agree. Suger is a great buy right now. The stocks I have been watching are up 10% a day.\n\n Its due to ethinal production. Ethinal from suger is much cheaper then from corn and more inviromentally friendly.

If you are not into a lot of risk I would recommend proven, blue chip stocks like McDonalds, Coca cola, and others that have a good record and also pay dividends.\n\nIf you don't have a lot of money to invest (less than $5,000) than maybe one of the cheaper investment portfolios like PHY. (around $3 a share)\n\nThe key to any investment is research, research and more research.  Make sure you understand the company and what they do or sell.\n\nI would also recommend one of the online traders since they only charge $7 a trade.  Most like Scottrade and Etrade are very reliable.\n\nOne further recommendation, Yahoo has some excellent tools in yahoo finance to help you including stock screeners and portfolio management.  Before you invest, pick out a few stocks you are thinking about putting your money in and set up a free sample portfolio.  You can set it up to show performance (gains and losses). Watch it for a month or 2 and see how much money you would have gained or lost.  That may give you an idea of profits/risk before you invest any real money.

I'm buying carefully chosen stocks that appear to be very undervalued with big moats.  \n\nI sold out a lot of positions just before the fall so have plenty of cash - planning on putting about half of it back in the market between now and mid July.

Here's the basic knowledge. Don't start investing in low price stocks. You can easily lose all your money overnight.\n\nInstead consider the following no load mutual funds.

You can open a share builder account. I can't tell you which stocks to buy, that would make me your broker.\n\nYou can also learn to trade options, which can also make you alot of money in a short amount of time.

Try http://www.etrade.com\n\nSimply put: you buy a part of the company looking to profit either in the long (investment) or short term (a short term trade).
