    Help me build a solid stock portfolio!

    Hey guys, so let's say you had some money to invest in a stock portfolio

    10 companies, moderate risk, with promising future... what would you pick?


    Here are a few I am currently considering:
    - GOOG (Google)
    - C (CitiGroup)
    - WMT (Walmart)
    - UBI (Ubisoft)

    What do you guys think?

    - BP (British Petroleum) as well! Stock can't dive any lower than what it is now!

      WWE

      You have two options:

      1) Buy it and hold on to it and simply collect the dividend, which is a very steady 36 cents per quarter. Even when times got tough, they kept paying it. It averages about a 9-10% Return annually.

      2) WWE stock is very cyclical and somewhat easy to predict. Right now, buy it anywhere from $13-15 and then wait a month or two and it will go up a few bucks, sell, repeat. Generally, some good times to find it lower-priced is before major PPVs, so like if you buy in Feb and sell after April (Wrestlemania), you'll make a few bucks a share, or buy now in early July and sell after August (Summerslam).

        I would pick a company that has been steadily increasing in size (for a long time), instead of a company that has been decreasing in size.

                  or how about an index fund? It's not as fun, but realistically if you pick 10 stocks, few years from now, half of them will turn out to be winners, other half will be losers... and your return will be about the same as if you would have purchased an index fund with 10x less volatility...

                            You can get some good gold mining stocks right now as the gold price has dropped off quite a lot in the last few days and mining stocks typically benefit from the higher gold price in multiple so when the price comes back youre in the money. You should have at least one in your portfolio if you want to profit from higher gold prices.

                            You might wanna take a look at:

                              buy BP....price is low and their assets are worth more than their stock is selling for. Clearly they are cheap because they are in a large crisis but go ahead and research the Exon valdez spill and how much the shareholders who held onto the stock profited.

                                I'm not an investor nor have money to invest but you could look at some of the European poker networks like iPoker. They are already big with rising stock but if poker ever gets legalised in the USA they will get much bigger and fast..

                                But I don't know anything about trading so ignore me.

                                  Do you think BP could hit $20/share ?

                                  I thought so before but now it looks like all the news is turning to potential takeover, asset purchases, and possible resolution of the leak within weeks..... so it looks like it may be ready to uptrend. Last 3 days its moving up.

                                    Doesnt this company mostly sell its product to the USA?

                                    Id think it a bit risky in the long term because theres no way to hedge against a weak dollar. If you have a chinese co or commodities stocks, you can get some extra bang if the dollar goes weak.

                                      Actually it's worldwide, and while the U.S. took a hit it's grown by putting on more and more shows in global markets...
