These are picks I either own or plan on owning for 6-18 month timeframe. I write about these stocks on my blog The Proficient Investor

symbol name last price % change open
  • +
  • BFLY
    Bluefly Inc
  • $3.834
  • +0.89%
  • $3.84

Bluefly is a strictly high end online retailer that is profitable and has an extremely low operating margin. They recently had a million dollar day and their fundamentals are strong. Easily a buyout target for the right bidder.

  • RMKR
    Rainmaker Systems
  • $2.89
  • -1.37%
  • $2.86

Update: I'm looking at a possible buy here after a huge sell-off has hammered the stock. Upside potential here short term is $8-9. Rainmaker is a small cap stock that trades on NASDAQ. They are profitable this year after recent downtrends in their market. I think the stock has legs to get to $10. Update: I just sold my entire position at $10.50. Waiting for a pullback now.

  • ZQK
    Quiksilver Cp
  • $9.24
  • -2.63%
  • $9.59

Quicksilver is on a comeback with 23% growth predicted for 2007 and only trading at a P/E of 21. With spring and summer on the horizon, sales are likely to breakout since most of the clothing they make is geared toward surf/skate. This stock is now trading at 19 times earnings and 24% growth. They also just announced a partnership with Plantronics to create bluetooth enabled sports apparel.

  • AMTD
    Td Ameritrade Hld
  • $17.88
  • -1.00%
  • $18.11

I bought this stock in 2005, well ahead of the news of their announcement of the special dividend. I think brokerages are going to do well this year and AMTD is going to recover nicely over the long run from giving out the dividend they did in 2006.

  • MSFT
    Microsoft Cp
  • $25.98
  • +0.39%
  • $25.94

Microsoft has a new OS coming out that has much needed security upgrades as well as a much friendlier user interface. I also believe the flaws aren't as bad as the news media is making them out to be.

People owning MSFT also tend to own: AAPLAMDCSCODELLGOOGIBMINTC

TheStreet.com Rating: B What is this?

  • +
  • AAPL
    Apple Inc
  • $170.12
  • +1.15%
  • $169.59

Apple was completely flat last year but will likely surge due to Macworld as well as their product cycle for this year's holiday season. Pick this up at $75.

  • TSCM
    Thestreet.com
  • $6.18
  • -0.96%
  • $6.27

The Street.com is a great source of financial insight and stock news. I read it every day.

  • CNXT
    Cnxt

Conexant is a spec play in the chip sector that I think will make a strong appearance in 2007.
