I get paid advice from Louis Navallier's newsletters. Some of the stocks are wonderful but not all....diversification is always the best bet.

Giving out advice is so dangerous. A couple years ago I realized I didn't know anything about stocks and joined a newsletter of someone with a great track record.............my motto is, " You can't play another man's game".

I can't hardly know as much about the market as someone who has studied it all their life. So, I put my ego to bed and listened to the pros.

I am up about 10 bucks a share right now.

GES is another one that had some good news but the stock went down. They announced a 2 for 1 split on top of a dividend.
