2018 Stock Prediction

[dmclone]

I think this will be a tough year. Every stock seems over priced but it did last year as well.

Stock, ETF, Mutual Fund, Currency, etc.

What is your pick?

I'll go with PRIM $27.57

Previous winners. Thanks ArgentCy

2016

Well I've gone and tallied the final totals. I almost missed one because of a stock split, (SH split in the wrong direction 1 for 2). If I missed any others let me know. That change also switched the average from over +11% to 9.0% and under performing the S & P 500. Oh well, there goes are soon to be Hedge Fund.

Pretty miserable year and we did not have as many picks. I took the winner in the worst speculation category. I used Yahoo data and only went back to picks early in the year.

A couple low priced stocks I've been watching that could have big years:
HUSA - $.32
FCEL - $1.71

I think we are going to have another good year but more volatility. For this contest I'm going to go more conservative and pick an ETF that I recently added to my IRA. LEAD which buys dividend stocks that are basically in strong financial position to raise the dividends. And I think I'll add another flyer this year that has suffered lately but good cash flow should improve with the lower taxes and has a big short position against it, Gamestop. Along with the newer consoles they have a chance at a good year.

LEAD - 31.96
GME - 18.17

I bought something similar to that for a roth IRA. It's called SDOG.

BIR is a Canadian natural gas company that I think is somewhat under valued. I bought some about a month ago and it is up close to 10% since.

So this is just based on price appreciation & doesn't include dividends?

I'm interested in seeing what CSX stock does. CEO died last week. I had heard about them possibly being bought by Union Pacific.

Correct, to hard to track and in just one year won't make much difference anyway.

 

[SoapyCy]

My XXII is up 14.5% and INO 12.3% today alone. I've been them long enough to know a huge drop is coming (it always does) yet i never sell them.

Depends. AMZA pays a 20% dividend.
