Does anyone else ever save these and look at them 18 to 24 months out? It is amazing to see how many of these so-called picks were flat,tanked or went out of business.
If you are feeling smug about the last year or so of your portfolio growth, adjust the value of your portfolio versus the value of the dollar. Ok - now stop thinking you are a genius go have a slice of humble pie.
Real growth is indicated by real corporate profits.
Bull rushes are generated by speculative drivel.

Why isn't silver in the mix? It's up over 100% in the last year.

With evil, ultra rich man's George Soros's puppets still in the White House and the Senate, who thinks precious metals won't outperform the stock market in the next year? In 2 years, poverty, inflation, and interest rates will double. Any takers? You know in your gut I'm right. Jimmy Carter days. We are there.

So many of these companies are only recomended after they have had a run up in price. The predictions for 2011 are as stupid as the ones for 2010. These idiots have no more idea what the market is going to do than the average investor. They usually recommend the stock to get investors to buy and drive the price up, because the people doing the recommendation have already purchased the stock or options before making the recommendation.

Only a fool would invest in any of this stuff without a complete investigation by yourself or your broker and if they pay less than 2 % dividens don't touch it, it is just another sham with the big wheels sucking up all the loose cash that could be dividens.

I see lots of negativity in the comments here...hey, it's just their opinion, they may be right or wrong, no big deal. Once they suggest something, now it's your turn to do some homework. I have found that the finiancial advisors and guests on FOX Business News have made great recommendations, and I have bought several, and made really nice money. Saturday morning especially...Thanks Fox!

These respected advisors are all paid advocates who would have no job if the stock market went away. This is all a farce perpetrated by the frauds on Wallstreet.

I already have a couple of these that are recommended. Overall my picks (about 45) have done real well and on the last day of the year the total value was the high of the year also. I just hope the trend continues.

The word analyst holds the truth. ANAL : thats as close to they can be and their picks. Do NOT listen to a word any of them have to say and do your own homework and most importantly, go with your gut feelings on a particular stock. You are your best friend not them, they only have a say due to the fact they are getting paid to cover and promote certain companies. You lose, they win. ALWAYS!

Great collection of stocks to watch, thanks!
To those interested, I created a google finance portfolio, based on the assumption that I invested $1,000 into each one of these stocks today.
If you want, you can download the portfolio free here: http://www.leemcarthur.ca/2011/01/top-stocks-for-2011-bloggingstocks-com/
Once downloaded, you can import that into your own google finance portfolio, and save a ton of time adding stocks, setting up transactions, etc.
Thanks again for this!
