    AGEN has alot of movement because of possible buyout and insiders are buying and not selling-- This company is way undervalued--

    Amylin(AMLN) great new once weekly drug, Bydureon, for type II diabetics, that is well-tolerated and can help you lose weight(possibly) as well as likely good blood sugar levels with only one injection per week!

    AsiaInfo is rising for two reasons
    1. It is very undervalued and strongly profitable with great balance sheet.
    2. CEO just bought $1 million worth of AsiaInfo stock.

    what do you guys thinking about this trucking company YRCW...I am very tempted to buy some share to make quick paper money...it might have a good quick short run for quick money.....its very interesting / weird stock if you look at its chart....and I only saw a high volume trades recently and not in previous years..any fedback will be appreciated. So far i have these stocks in my protfolio for a long term GE 400 @ $16.22, Intel 155 @ $20.69, Pfizer 202 @ $15.45, AMD 380 @ $6.49, AA 500 @ $8.55

      @Raman GIll Thanks pal for your honest opinion,,,,,why I ask because some stocks like this one BVSN went from $8 to $44 in matter of 3 weeks. I know a guy who took a big risk bought 1000 shares....he bought it for $9.75 and sold it $35.00...Not bad at all.....funny thing is it was pure risk/luck combination... now he is a happy camper.....he told me we should do it for a short term...he did it and i never too that risk,,,,=(...But I did buy today 250 shares of MU for $7.55..also long term...but I am looking for quick try to see my luck =)
