Stock Recommendations

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

From time to time I will write a review of a company and in the end conclude whether or not it is a buy, sell or hold opportunity. I hope to do these reviews increasingly more and more so that they will make up the bulk of this site. I intend to give a brief overview of what the company does, review some of their financials, predict how the stock will fare over the short and long term, and finally make a recommendation for the stock. I plan on using a 1-5 scale to rate these stocks.

1: Strong Sell. Sell your holdings in this stock, or better yet short it.

2: Sell. This stock isn’t yet a disaster, but the future is not looking bright for it.

3: Hold. It is hard to say which direction the company is headed in. Be careful and watch for sudden changes in the stock price.

4: Accumulate. The company seems to be headed up, but not at full steam. Buy on dips in the price.

5: Strong Buy. Buy this stock before it is too late!

I will also try to revisit companies and edit my ratings of them accordingly. You can find my reviews in the Stock Recommendations category.
