I just want to make a suggestion. People should try and put the reasons why they like a particular stock, and what kind of time frame are they looking to sell (or buy if people dare to recommend shorts). Reasons could be from they have a great product coming out, they are undervalued comparing their earnings to price (and I'm not talking P/E here), is a technical reason (stochastics point to a buy opportunity), etc.

Obviously, people WILL do their own research, but a small blip of a reason would be helpful also. Just a suggestion.

Good luck everybody.

ERIK

LVWD does not have very high volume. If I bought a lot of it, and wanted to sell it when the price jumps, is there a chance that there wont be enough buyers to take it off my hands right away?

TGEN has been very good to me. Got in early and holding. I feel they, as with any BioTech, have some good products in the pipeline. If one or two hit the stock will take off.
I also like IGT. They control about 70% of the slot machine business and there appear to be some very large orders looming on the horizon. Go financial and P/E

I have been in Airtran for quite some time. It has done very well. I am only 18, but bought 100 shares a couple years ago for 4.75 and I am thinking about selling now just to have some fun in some day trading type stuff, but still may keep it. Anyways, they are doing very well right now and it is currently at $16.59.

I know I should probably keep it, but it is tempting to cash out because i have probably made most of my money, seeing as I almost quadrupled my investment. I am still undecided on selling it, but am very pleased with what it has done, and I think will continue to slowly grow.

What are your thoughts on holding/getting out of XMSR? It has hit a new 52 week high today at $15.74. This latest rally came from an announcement that Honda would add XM as a standard feature on some trim levels of the 2004 Accord and as dealer installed option on all 2004 S2000

Yeah there is a good chance. The way I've done it is I've bought like 200-300 dollars worth of shares so I could find enough buyers for the stock. Right now its at 3.5 cents and I GUARANTEE you it will be at 20 cents this week.
