Greg Guenthner says penny stock investors should follow Warren Buffett’s advice. It’s time to be greedy. Greg says there are plenty of undervalued companies that will surge when the economy recovers. He recommends Neenah Paper (NYSE:NP), Buckeye Technologies (NYSE:BKI), Silicom (NASDAQ:SILC).
Investors are human. They make mistakes. That is why hedging is so important, says Alexander Green. He says there are plenty of stock bargains out there right now, but most people are too scared to enter the market. Alex recommends using trailing stops to limit downside risk on these 13 cash-rich companies.
Investors need a solid defense right now, says Martin Denholm. This means holding high-dividend stocks. Consumer staples and telecoms industries are the best places to cherry pick strong companies. For a lower-risk alternative, try these two high-dividend ETFs (AMEX:SDY, PEY).
The garbage industry is about as recession-proof as you can find, says David Fessler. People won’t stop taking out the trash in a downturn. David says the Market Vectors Environmental Services ETF (AMEX: EVX) is a great way of investing in the sector, and is a bargain right now. For a specific company pick, he recommends Clean Harbors (NASDAQ: CLHB), which treats hazardous waste.
The stock markets opened sharply lower again today. Steve McDonald says bonds are a much safer and more profitable alternative right now. Investors should stick to short-term bonds to maintain a flexible portfolio and limit market risk.
Big Media headlines today are full of Great Depression comparisons. But Martin Hutchinson thinks that might be exaggerating the current downturn. He expects a ‘double-dip’ recession similar to that of the early 80s. Still, Martin says we’re looking at five years before we dig ourselves out of this economic hole.
Billionaire investor Kirk Kerkorian is selling his 6.5% stake in Ford (NYSE:F) for a big loss. Andrew Snyder says it would be crazy for the average investor to follow Kerkorian. He says Ford is dirt cheap right now, and could be in line for a 50% up-move.
Should we follow Warren Buffett back into the stock market? Eric Fry thinks so. But the market is still volatile. More short-term losses are on the cards. Eric recommends six beaten-down companies that offer high yields and the potential for a strong recovery.
There are great wealth-creating opportunities in today’s miserable markets, says Andrew Snyder. Take oil, for example. The black goo is on a slippery slope towards $50 a barrel, and no OPEC production cuts are going to stop this in the short term. Andrew says the UltraShort Oil and Gas ProShares ETF (AMEX:DUG) is the best way to profit from the oil industry’s downturn.
Warren Buffet says its time to be greedy. But not all stocks are worth buying, says Horacio Marquez. He recommends PepsiCo Inc. (NYSE:PEP) for today’s bargain hunters. The company has over 100-years of history, and it has consistently emerged from financial crises stronger than ever.
