Monsanto is going to be a big, big winner IF the biotech stuff pans out...I was also thinking Calgene looks pretty cheap since Monsanto took that big stake. If Monsanto's biotech division doesn't pan out at least as well as Roundup, look out below! But, still, I'm thinking of buying a few shares. My favorite blues...that's a hard one, but I bought Westinghouse a couple of years ago at 9 and thinks it still has a good run from 19, maybe to 30 or so. I also like Seagram...I bought that one last year at 26 and I think it has a long way to go in the long-term. For a mid-cap, my favorite is USSurgical...bought that one at 15 two years ago...lots of things brewing...very, very bright and innovative company, it's now around 33 but I'm keeping it. My favorite small cap is STAC...I paid 3 for that one, it's been trading between 11 and 16, but I like that company so well, I don't want to part with it in case it starts going up and stays up...I don't think it's a stock I need to worry about because they have no debt, have plenty of cash, have a wonderful R&D lab, and make plenty of acquisitions for all cash. Only four analysts follow STAC and all rate it a strong buy. |
