Lets talk about some stocks

After breezing through some of my favorite stocks I have decided to provide all of you with 5 stocks that I believe can make you money in the next year. I think that it is very important for everyone to hold (at the very minimum) 5 diverse stocks in their portfolio at all times. Let us begin...



First off we have Visa (V). This stock is brand new this week and I strongly encourage people to invest in it. I do think that we will see it go up and down in the next month, but overall it is going to have you up at least 5 points.



Next on the line we have Apple (AAPL). Apple has been providing innovative ideas for quite some time now and I can promise you that there is so much more in store for the near future. Apple is just about to start its triumphant march back up to the highs we saw only 2 months ago, and I am very bullish on this company.



Third on my list I give you.......(Drum Roll).......JP Morgan! I know that it has been a rough week with the entire Bear Stearns dilemma, but the truth is that JP Morgan (JPM) is a very strong financial firm that will be seeing many gains in the upcoming year. I am a big believer in JP Morgan, even though the financial sector is horrible right now. I believe that in the next year JPM will be up above 50.



Another very hot stock to watch is Live Nation. I know that I recently talked about this company in a past post, but the truth is that it is a very good company with excellent potential to climb. Live Nation (LYV) is looking to acquire the Rolling Stones, which would only make their stock fly even higher. I predict that LYV will be up above 18-19 dollars a share in the next year, and if they do in fact get the Rolling Stones deal, then I am sure the stock will have incredible returns.



My final stock of the day is DuPont (DD). This is a very strong company with a hefty amount of growth in front of it. I have looked at this company a little bit less, but I am still confident that the returns will be somewhere between 5-6 points.



I hope that you will all look into these company's and do some homework on them, much as I have done myself. Remember that the most important thing to do is research and analyze.
