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

-
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.

-
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 - $0.00
- N/A
- $N/A
Conexant is a spec play in the chip sector that I think will make a strong appearance in 2007.
