Help with my stock market project!!!!!?

Question by corby_edouard: Help with my stock market project!!!!!?
Ok, so for my Economics class, we have do do this huge stock market project in which we have to pick three companies to “invest” in. Since we’re going to be using actual stock information for our projects, we should pick three companies that have been doing well, and should continue to do well. So what three companies should I choose and why? Please, I’m totally lost on this project and I need all the help I can get! Thank you so much!

Stock Market Opinion?

Question by Dusty: Stock Market Opinion?
As a class assignment, each student of our class is going to have the oppurtinity to “invest” in the stock market. (We are not actually purhasing shares for money) We will have a choice of investing $ 10,000 into (2-3) Mutual Funds and (3-5) Stocks. We will be holding on to these stocks and in two months, the student who has yielded the highest gain will recieve a $ 50 savings bond.

I believe I have what it takes to win, but I am seeking outside advice to help me in deciding which stocks and mutual funds to buy.

If you have any suggestions of stocks and mutual funds that will grow rapidly in 2 months, please tell me.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, Dusty

At this point in time, AMD is way below the 52 week low, so that would be a good option.

Sprint has also started to go up, and it should keep going up for a while.

Whatever you do, don’t invest in Google or something, because it varies alot, and you don’t want to go down right when this project is due. It is more for Long-Term. (2 months is not long term)

BTW, Check out the finance section of Yahoo, and read some of the articles pertaining to the companies you will be investing in.
