Anyone have a good list of large, medium, and small cap healthcare stocks. More on the service side of things and less focus on single channeled revenue type companies.

Market got carried away with itself last week with the 20% rally in financials of which Wach was a big part.
Reality is back
1) Fed says it will hike before the housing problems are solved.
2) Housing is still a problem especially in the West and South East which means credit is a problem which mean...

AAPL is headed to under $100 by years end. The tech selloff has begun and it's only going to get worse. Why? Because that's the way a cyclical BEAR market works. It's the anti-bull market. The Bear goes around to each sector and rips them apart one at a time. Yeah, you get bounces (DEAD CAT) but...

Fast casual dining has been on the way up with companies like Chipotle-- Spicy Pickle also of Denver ilk is a company to consider.
What are your thoughts about Fast Casual? Is it a concept that is recession proof i.e. people flow to it because their is a contraction in the economy, won't pay for ...

The portfolio is commodity heavy and to top it all it is short stocks.Hence the volatility is gut wrenching.The utilities,consumer staples and Costco "hedges" are not working-I guess they are too "safe haven" stocks to rise when sentiment is positive.What stocks/sectors would serve the purpose of ac...

I cannot believe (In a good way of course) Bank of America hasn't followed everyone else in the banking sector and cut its dividend. Is there anyway for BAC to hold the line after assuming CFC and its debt? It would be nice, but I would not be surpised if by the end of August Lewis announces a 50% ...

ICO - I like this small cap coal play into earnings next week. If the market doesn't get in its way it could see $12.50 or higher before earnings. Like with most small caps, I would not hold it over earnings, just into them. We'll see, but a tight stop gives you a nice risk/reward here on this one...

GS - I still say and will continue to say that as much as people love GS, it's vastly overpriced and on the next wave down here SHORTLY it sees below $125 a share. I think its one of the best shorts out there. The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Best of breed falls hardest, but trust me, ha...

Jim Jubak in a recent article argued that the best method to reform health care was to hand it to Walmart.They would cut down on salaries,medicine costs by using generics and eliminate insurance costs because most people will be paying with cash.
This is almost similar to what we have in India.My qu...

AAPL continues to display amazing relative strength compared to the rest of the market. Having said that, my experience is that stocks like AAPL will fail as well in the end. It's inevitable. Yes, people will still buy I Pods and I Phones and such, but that doesn't mean they will buy AAPL stock! A...

GOOG has a one way ticket to $250 next stop, and then, I believe, $150 as a final destination. Their earnings showed what reality is, the poor economy is infecting every type of business. None are immune. Big tech is going down in a big way. As a trader we play them both ways, up and down, but I ...

I still say LEH is the next to go UNDER, like BSC. All the talk of LEH going private is rubbish, they are basically worthless with all the bad debt, you don't go private if you aren't worth anything! You go bankrupt or merge with someone who is nice to you, ala CFC. LEH is not a stock you want to ow...

GU - I like this little one, GU, into earnings that come next week. This is the type, like ICO,that often gets a run into earnings. $12.50 looks like key resistence, if it can break there it can see $15. If not, then stopping out and risk is minimal. I would not hold it over earnings, no way, but...

I was very bullish on oil sands but I came across an article explaining its environmental implications
it releases 3-5 times as much C02 to make a barrel of synthetic crude as it does to extract a barrel of crude oil
enough fresh water to supply 2 million homes consumed per year

I recommend putting GETG on your Green investment watch list. I would hold off on buying at current levels (see my recommendation) but I would consider adding on any significant pull backs.
