Mike's Recommendations for Your Portfolio
Scientific-Atlanta (SFA) -I used to work at SA and still hear the horror stories. SA is a first rate manufacturer, but treats engineering as an adopted step-child. My recommendation is to watch for start-ups by engineers who leave SA and invest in these new companies instead.
ANTEC (ANTC)-Since I work for this company, I know exactly what the stock is going to do, but unfortunately (for you) I cannot disclose it. However, if you are an electrical engineer, email me a resume.
HAYES-This company was always private and went bankrupt in 1999. However you can still invest in its stock by sending me all of your cash in small un-marked bills.
Stockpoint
www.stockpoint.com
Stockpoint is one step ahead of the rest. The investing tools are
cutting edge and easy to use. For example, the customized
personal ticker allows you to track both stocks and indexes, and
you can change the direction and speed of the tickers. The
personal portfolio feature allows you to input the date when you
bought the stock, so you can see how much you have gained, or
lost, over time. And it takes brokerage commissions into account.
Stockpoint’s Interactive charts are fun to play with, too.
The only downside to Stockpoint is its lack of original news
content.
Bloomberg
www.bloomberg.com
Bloomberg is known for its 'round the clock news. But it also has
a top-of-the-line investing tool, Market Monitor, offered in two
versions -- slim and enhanced. The slim version will stay open on
your desktop throughout the day in a separate window and keep
track of up to 10 stocks or mutual funds. The enhanced version
also includes charts that track the performance of each of those
stocks over the past 15 trading sessions; and up-to-the-munite
detailed quotes and news items. And, if youhave time to spare,
sit back and watch Bloomberg TV. You'll need a fast connection
and a few plug-ins to get it all to work.
Wall Street City
www.wallstreetcity.com
Wall Street City provides free unlimited real-time quotes and
in-depth commentary and analysis. The customizable stock ticker
is simple to use. Like spinning a roulette wheel, you just point
and push to change direction and speed. Input a stock symbol and
pick from 30 different options: quotes, graphs, or reports. The
personal portfolio feature is basic.
SmartMoney
www.smartmoney.com
Slick interactive charts allow you to track and compare key
factors such as sales, earnings, analyst recommendations,
technical indicators and news. Just point to the line on the
chart and the date and stock price pops up; add indexes and other
stocks to compare. Keep in mind the data only goes back to 1995.
The Watchlist is a personalized ticker that is resizable and
detachable, allowing you to keep it open while working on other
applications or viewing other Web pages. Also unique is the
detachable news ticker that scrolls news instead of stock prices.
Bureau of the Public Debt
www.publicdebt.treas.gov
Uncle Sam put together this web site for one-stop shopping and
tracking of Treasury bonds and bills. The Savings Bond Wizard not
only keeps an inventory of your bonds, but calculates their
redemption value as well. If you're not familiar with bonds, a
good source of information is Investing In Bonds.com at
www.investinginbonds.com
Raging Bull
www.ragingbull.com
This site offers a nice combination of original articles and
message boards. A quick look at the "Most Active Message
Boards" section will give you an idea on what stocks are in
the limelight. A recent partnership with 10K Wizard,
www.tenkwizard.com, enables Raging Bull users to have full access
to SEC documents.
ReeseGroup
www.reesegroup.com
Innovative use of technology, this web-site allows you to crunch
numbers like a pro, without having to think like one. For
example, plug in the name of a stock and the Research Wizzards
tool analyzes it based on investment criteria by Peter Lynch and
other investment gurus. Also, plug in the name of a stock and see
summaries of articles from a handful of top financial
publications.
Market Guide
www.marketguide.com
Market Guide stands out from the rest with its research and stock
screening tools for more than 12,000 publicly traded companies.
Now part of the Multex.com group, Market Guide incorporates
full-text broker research in its stock quote
"snapshots." Some are free. Others are pay as you go.
