Stock Market Game?
For one of my classes we were given a stock market game we get "$100,000" and we invest it in some stocks and at the end of the year whoever has the most money wins. Does anyone know of any good stocks to invest in right now?

- Oil, natural gas, precious metals (gold, platinum, silver, etc). You can't go wrong with oil. It's expected to be around $150 or $200/barrel by the end of 2008. Thank GWB for that.
- BUCY CCC CF CPHD DE ESLT ESRX MON MOS PTNR SSL TEVA VMSI
- Right now take about 60% and put it into three different refiners..FTO, TSO, WNR...( they should do very well into APRIL) Then split another 30% into some agricultural chemical companies...MOS , MON, TRA, AGU, POT ( the whole world is trying to squeeze more crops out of farmland!) With the 10% you have left ...move around week to week...look at some stocks that really jump when they start to move...MELI ( Argentinian E-Bay)...or TBSI ( shipping company)... solar companies: CSIQ ( Canadian) YGE ( Chinese) AKNS ( American) ...or take a " long-shot" and hope that the financial situation gets straightened out...and buy ETFC ( E*trade) right now...if things go right it might triple by the time school gets out.
- The answer about refiners and ag products, etc is good but when it comes to the long-shot financial ( which is a great idea - for a " game") you have a much better chance of tripling your money with NLY..( Annaly Mortgage)...they have very, very little sub-prime exposure..so when things straighten out...they will be one of the biggest beneficiaries.
