Watch list Stocks
On this site you will see two pages with listings of various stocks. The 20 Stock Portfolio is a group of stocks that I have researched and believe have strong prospects to make investors money. I track the returns on these stocks, comment on related news, and update results on at least a quarterly basis. My personal holdings come from the components of the 20 Stock Portfolio. The Watch List consists of stocks I run across and something about them interest me. I add them to the page so I can do further review, or just to keep an eye on them. The Yahoo Finance code I use allows you to click on the symbol to get a chart, click the chart and go to the company’s summary on Yahoo.
I will scan through the Watch List stock every few days looking for new news. Now that the 20 Stock Portfolio is at full strength, (The 20th, (HDNG: 12.45 -0.31 -2.43%), was added 2/5/08) I am looking for companies that may be better performers that the current members. Also, some of these companies just interest me.
Power Air Corp PWAC is a micro-cap working on some intriguing fuel cell technology. The stock is going nowhere but down, and trading for pennies. I am waiting to see if they can bring a product to market and sell it profitably. I should not be hard to catch the stock at a few bucks a share on the way up, if it happens.
Several companies are home building, construction or home improvement related: (AVTR: 28.39 +1.28 +4.72%), (BLDR: 4.84 -0.09 -1.83%), (HWCC: 19.09 -0.29 -1.50%), (SSD: 22.65 -0.47 -2.03%). These appear to be well run companies that should out perform when the market starts to anticipate a housing rebound. No sense rushing in now! Though, writing this makes me want to take another look at HWCC.
Recent additions: (EEFT: 16.29 -0.20 -1.21%), (PGF: 18.60 +0.18 +0.98%), (STAN: 18.30 +0.19 +1.05%)
Finally, I am always looking for companies in South America that may stand out. I spend a lot of time deep south, and see healthy economic activity. Here are some companies listed: AKO-A, (BLX: 15.43 -0.49 -3.08%), (IRS: 10.55 -0.22 -2.04%), (MELI: 29.52 -3.43 -10.41%). There are some interesting stories here, but a lot of digging is required to see if valuations make sense. MELI could be huge and IRS would be in the 20 Stock Portfolio if it wasn’t in Argentina.
I hope this post encourages some of you readers to take deeper looks at these stocks or the others listed. Get back to me with your thoughts.
