Take a look at this graph!! Sandisk (SNDK)

this is just a graph of SNDK.  Go Green called the stock at $35..so that has been a nice return

Financials Lead Again...Also in 2011

I like the financials in 2011 and like I said in my last post about the financials they will hit the same area and SKYROCKET immediately.  Big day across the board for financials and GO GREEN stock Bank of America (BAC) was one of the leaders up almost 3%.  I see continued success for the financial industry in 2011.  SPF added yesterday and up 2%...DRYS up 2% could be approaching skyrocket area and a quick 10% return by the end of 2010..that's what the graph tells me

Standard Pacific Corp (SPF)

I just saw this stock on jim cramer's twitter and I agree that this stock is one of the better stocks to invest in. After technical analysis I think SPF is a stock to be in right now.


BUY SPF at $4.22!!

Visa takes a tumble!!

Visa has taken quite the tumble the past two days.  When the market gives you a gift like this you need to CAPITALIZE on it!!  Usually I am spot on calling BUY points on stocks but my compass was way off on this one.  However, one man's junk (buying V @ $80) is another man's treasure (buying V @ $67).  I can only think of one reason for Visa to fall but Go Green hasn't released our idea (patent pending) that will take Visa out of business so Visa has no reason to be in danger yet.  So Visa is a play all day at $67!!

Buying Stocks is Only Half the Battle!!

In my post last Friday, I advised everyone to SELL APP and it has dropped over 10% since my call to sell.  I consider that stock a "dog with fleas" but stocks like that you can make big money on because of human error and people get stuck buying when they should be selling.  Another stock like that is Borders (BGP).  These two stocks are some of my favorites because you can make so much money off of them.  Borders for example, we would like to see that pullback a little bit more before we decide to re-invest in it.  I will let you know when to re-invest but in the meantime.  Go Green!!  Have a nice day and it is closing in on 4PM ET...do you know where your money is??!?? I hope it isn't in stocks that are 'dogs with fleas'

Long-Term Positions on ETF's?

I have very little experience with ETF's and actually the two that caught my eye the most were Palladium and Platinum...both of which are up today.

My Top 5 ETF's

1) GLD...gold (safest)   $136
2) PALL...palladium  $75
3) PPLT....platinum $169
4) XES/XOP...oil equipment/oil exploration  $36.50/$51
5) SPY...s&p 500   $124



...analysts expect Silver (SLV) to take a drop due to the recent gains..however, it is up today $29

Love Visa (V)!! Perfect around the holiday season!

Pretty standard stock play around Christmas time.  The stock is currently trading at $80 and this stock will be well over $90 in a few months.  Add Visa to your portfolio!!



-Visa (V)  $80.20

APP (American Apparel)

Up to $1.75 from our call at $1.10 in November.  We also called it at $.75 on Aug 31 but advised people to sell three days later when it was up 20%.  I would advise anyone to SELL APP and collect your 60% return in a short 5 weeks time.  Have a nice weekend! Updated stock list will be on the site before the weekend is over.


Also, this blog will be put on our website that is currently under construction.  The new website will be www.gogreenggi.com and this blog will be one of the pages to access.  This blog will never shut down and keep checking this blog and get the page views up.  If you also share a love for football like most men feel free to check out our football blog at the link below.

FST Scouting Agency

Dryships (DRYS)

An old friend and future colleague of mine told me about this stock yesterday and although I can't take credit for the  6% gain today I will tell you Go Green has added the stock to our stock list.  The stock list is essentially a large mutual fund of around 50 stocks and is considered the safest investment we can offer. It is in an older post but I will re-post the current stock list sometime this weekend after I re-evaluate them. Some of our stocks might have to be removed because of the gains they have received in the past three months.

The beauty about this stock is it is trading at $6.35 (up .34 today) so this stock is not too late to invest in.  I'll continue to conduct more research on this stock but until then you can read this on Dryships.

The Greatest Game Ever Played

...just found this when I was browsing word documents.  This is the e-mail I sent to Mark Cuban last year and since we both share the same hometown, college, and love for business I thought I would get a response. I did not.  That's fine we don't need Cuban to start Go Green.  He must think he can afford to not Go Green...that's fine.  So the title of the e-mail (Feb 2010) was The Greatest Game Ever Played...because it REALLY is

The Greatest Game Ever Played

Welcome to the greatest game ever played.  The first rule is that anyone can play.  The second rule is that you cannot play if it’s your first time.

When you play the game you don’t have to do anything but continue with your life. 

Your money will return at least 20% in three months.

There will be a small commission for the game of 7% of gain on investment.  Whether you think that is a small or a large percentage please note that a portion of the commission is going to an environmental cause.

The third rule is that you can invest as much money as you want.

The first game ever played recorded a 40% return in 10 days.  (this was borders BGP)

The second game begins with Under Armour (UA) at a price of $25.07

The result…TBD

(UA currently trading @ $60, I would call that a double bagger but it is actually better than a double...closing in on triple range)

It’s hard to sell certainty in an uncertain world.  I need to give you some reason to believe me and why I am better than some other schmuck trying to get you to believe in what they say.  And then it hits me.  My picks always do the talking.  I used to read your blog this past summer and I believe you once said, “that if people were really good at investing in the stock market they would be writing you from the beach and not wasting their time on you”.  Well as a 20 year old junior at Indiana University and a student of the Kelley School of Business I am telling you that I am the person writing you from the beach.  However, right now it doesn’t look like it when it is 20 degrees and snowing outside in Bloomington, IN.

You obviously receive hundreds of these e-mails from people and I am telling you that I am the one out of 100 that you want to listen to.  As a smart, successful businessman maybe you can understand my struggle.  I am extremely good at the stock market and this is a gift I have.  Every stock I pick is a winner but no one will listen to what I have to say.  I just want someone to go hey all right big shot now prove it.  Just give me the chance and I will deliver.  Every pick I have given my dad has gone up and he has followed my picks five or six times in the past nine months.  My first pick was Citigroup and the first day he had it the stock went up 10%.  Two weeks ago, I personally invested at Borders (BGP) at $.95 and then it fell to $.85 and begged my dad to invest it and he refused.  The stock hit $1.40 ten days later and I sold it at 1.365.  I wouldn’t bullshit you and say I have a skill that I don’t.  I have been doing this for the past nine months and have won stock competitions in the past.  My dad says I need credibility and that I need to graduate from the Kelley school and then start building clients because no one is going to believe someone who has no track record.  I say I am going to be the same person next year why should everyone lose out on potential profits out there with my stock selections.  That is why I will offer the one thing that none of the other people can or will. 

I GUARANTEE your money on this investment.  I have $1,000 of Under Armour stock and if you invest $1,000 in Under Armour or any of the stocks I have listed below and it doesn’t return anything or loses value, I will pay you $1,000.  Sometimes fate sticks it hand out there and you just have to trust it.  I always like to leave on a quote because someone already said it better. “It doesn’t matter how many times you fail.  No one is going to know or care about your failures, and neither should you.  All you have to do is learn from them and those around you because…all that matters in business is that you get it right once.  Then everyone can tell you how lucky you are.”  -You (Mark Cuban quote)

The other four stocks that I love:

BIDU $487.50 (please note this stock is currently at $107...so we were way off...wait the stock had a 10:1 stock split at $700 so we are that GOOD)

GOOG $534.25 

AAPL  $200.55

C  $3.19

Bank of America/Financial Industry

The best thing about the Financial industry is it is very easy to predict.  Certain stocks establish prices where they sit at EVERY SINGLE TIME before they take off.  For example, Citigroup's price is at $4 and Bank of America is $11-12.  Now, when you look at BAC today you will see it is up 4% to $12.  Every time BAC is around $11-$12 you should BUY okay? Now, Citigroup is the same way.  I have followed this stock for around 3 years religiously meaning I know when this stock is moving up or down.  However, the problem with Citigroup is they are having problems establish growth and that is why investors jump ship around $5 every time because Citigroup is just a pump and dump stock, until they can prove to me as well as any other investor that they are a good long-term play.

A high-up Chicago businessman tried to tell a friend of mine that Citigroup would go to $7 last year.  I told him this was impossible and to sell at $5 and take your 30% return.  Nevertheless, he didn't listen and that brings me to my next point the two rules of Go Green Investing.

Go Green Rules
1) Never let a winner become a loser
2) Don't 'chase' stocks


-that's all folks

WBD

Tweeted about it last night being the play today and was GoGreen right or what. UP 27% right now and I thought they said there was no such thing as market timing?!?!  Jimmy Cramer was spot on on Krispy Kreme (KKD) as well as they are up 18% today.  Philly + Pitt = TV Show??

-on days like this I would watch the stock (WBD) for the rest of the day and if it looks like it has nothing left in the tank today dump it at 15:59 and smoke your cigar as Mario Bartiromo tries to tell you where your money is?...but you go I went #GoGreen and made 27% today, what did you do Maria??

---WBD currently trading @ 31.25 (UP $6.75 today)

Taking a Look at Toyota!!

My esteemed colleague (Patrick Johnson)and I were discussing Toyota and we both believe this stock is going past $95 in the upcoming months.  The whole car market is slowly turning around and Toyota will be trading well above the current price of $79...add TM to your portfolio..added it to the GoGreen stock list

...TM is a BUY @ $79!!

Apple Price Target $400

Set the new price target of Apple (AAPL) at $400/share.  Go Green loves it up until that point and then we will re-evaluate when the IPhone comes to Verizon or Apple throws another wrinkle to their company to exceed everyone's expectations (IProjectors?).  Have always loved Apple (past three years) and love it moving forward.  Safe and smart-Apple right now (317) and all the way down to $300.  You NEED AAPL in your portfolio!!! and if you want one of the safest investments out there it has to be Apple! Hit me up in a couple months when it is over $400!! I want to say it will be $350 by Christmas but I don't know if I am that bold to guarantee you that but I will say you can't afford to not GoGreen around the holiday season!!



AAPL
BIDU
RIMM
GOOG
...the fab 4 (SNDK) closing in?....nah but still great..now @$46

..UA? still working wonders can't believe it is @ $57 right now!!

-IPad 2nd gen will be the one that puts AAPL over the top and pushing the $500 range!

Another day, Another dollar....(Market Went Down Today!)

APWR up 9%
BGP up 7%
IO up 9%
BAC up 1.71%


Me and @jimcramer like DECK ($73) and CRM ($143) as well moving forward!






..follow us @gogreenGGI for real-time twitter picks...haha stock picks yeah i'll leave it

Found the ORO Stock Picks Old Blog!!

This is kind of funny but the great thing about GoGreen is when you look at old top 5 stocks the prices are just way higher..so in this example if you GoGreen for 18 months you have every stock higher by a substantial margin...average return is 10% a year. GoGreen crushes that!


Top 5 Stocks to Buy
1) MGM @ $7.67
2) C @3.48
3) ODP @3.25
4) AIG @1.72
5) GM @ $1.09

Thursday November 18th

Only four stocks out of our 55 stocks went down today (APWR, CMG, F, INTC)...however i love these four stocks moving forward so no worries..

General Motors (GM)

To be honest I don't even really like this stock all that much. I expect it to be sitting in the 30 range pretty soon and to definitely pullback tomorrow. However, I hope I am wrong and they prove me wrong and are sitting at my projection of $45/share a year from now.

Go Green Investments Stock List 11/18/2010

IPO Day!! GM!! $$$

Enough said. Expect big day tomorrow in general up and down the board.  added GM back to the stock watch and we're liking it tomorrow up to 36-37..I expect it one year from now to be at least in the $45 range. Expect Ford (F) to have a huge day and watch as it will climb over $17/share and I also see APP, APWR, AAPL, CAT. BGP, RIMM, ODP, SNDK, LVS, MGM, BIDU, GOOG, INTC, ORCL, and pretty much every stock on the Go Green Stock Watch going UP!


-Go Hoosiers!

Office Depot

Hey guys Go Green likes Office Depot (ODP) @ its current price of $4.48.  The stock won't fall below $4..


BUY Office Depot (ODP) @ $4.48

Twitter AND FORD

You need to follow our twitter as well we updated that we like some stocks: APP @ $1.10, BGP @ $1.18, F @ $16.63, and now we are also adding Barclays @ $18.86 to the list.  All really good plays right now.  APP and BGP very risky but if you want ONE STOCK it is FORD (F). Invest heavy in Ford right now.  It is like BIDU of the past..that much of a lock :)


BUY FORD @ $16.63

Valley Calling

We called the valley of Sequenom @ $6.36 from our post on Monday.  The stock is up 7% from our call on Monday and is looking good to crack $7 in the near future.



..i might expect a whole market pullback tomorrow but nevertheless stick with this stock until $7.20-$7.40 and when it gets around there I will tell you when to sell..


http://www.google.com/finance?q=sqnm

Most Heavily Watched Stocks November 1st

1) APP  $.97
2) BGP $1.22
3) SQNM  $6.36
4) BAC  $11.45
5) APWR  $7.14
6) ODP $4.49
7) IO  $4.89
8) NEM  $60.86


..These are the stocks that I am watching the closest because I think most of these are approaching a "valley" of the stock and some are just an attractive price right now.  The stocks that are underlined I consider attractive and the safest investments moving forward.  The other stocks such as SQNM and APWR I would consider as good investment spots right now, medium risk, and ones that will provide 20-30% in the future.  The riskiest investments and my most favorite are APP, BGP, ODP, and IO.  They are the riskiest and most rewarding stocks from the list.  I would consider both BGP and APP nice investments under $1 but I wouldn't take a risk on either one yet...I want to review their performance over the next few weeks...@GoGreenGGI we don't chase stock

NEM

Newmont Mining is currently trading at $60.86 and Newmont Mining in the $60 range is wise because this stock will be at $66 very shortly.  Add NEM to your portfolio!!


Go Green likes NEM @ $60/share!

BAC

And yes the mentioning of BAC @ $11 as a great historical value to BUY BAC in the last post means I am bullish on BAC right now.  This stock is currently trading at $11.45 and at a nice price to invest in BAC.  I would purchase BAC anywhere from where it is right now @ $11.45 up to $12/share.  I consider the fair value of BAC @ $15/share or around a 25% ROI of where it is now.  So, tomorrow or next week as long as BAC is in the $11 range I want that stock in my portfolio.


Go Green likes BAC @ $11.45...BUY BAC $11-12/share....Add BAC to portfolio!!

SQNM

I have been following SQNM fall as I thought it would and it is now trading at $6.36.  I would consider that a nice price to purchase the stock because I can't see the stock falling below $5.80.  The stock could flutter the next few weeks and if it would fall the ultimate price to buy the stock or possible "valley" of the stock is $5.80.  So BUY SQNM if it is ever at $5.80!!  It is a historical cost value I place on the company and I put in in the same range as RIMM @50, DELL @12, BAC @11, etc.

In conclusion, I like the stock and would buy @ $6.36 because even a 10% loss of investment is where I consider the stock to boom back up to $7 or a 20% increase. And I would actually hope the stock would fall because I would re-invest more money and watch as my money returns the 10% monthly return.  If my portfolio was 100,000 and cash available was 50,000, I would invest $5,000 or 10% of my cash available in SQNM @ $6.36..




On a side note, have you been watching Las Vegas Sands (LVS)..I'm not sure if that stock will be cooling off any time soon..........get it

BIDU

I am only going to say this one more time BIDU is one of the best stocks I have ever seen.  I have referred to this stock as "the stock that never goes down" and just a workhorse for any portfolio.  If stocks were fantasy football players I would consider BIDU Adrian Peterson who is good for 20 points a week (equivalent to 20% in two months in stock returns).  BIDU continually destroys earnings every quarter and although I doubt the company sustains the explosive growth they are still beating earnings so the stock will continue to grow.  This stock is at $110 right now and that is a steal because with this growth this stock could double that price in a year..overall BIDU excellent stock and a MUST for every portfolio

RIMM

 When I typed RIMM in the title box the first thing that came up was a previously stated title of "RIMM...STRONG BUY @$50.25".  That was a post we used via our twitter in August.  In any market, my price for RIMM's value is $50/share.  The stock fell after I posted that and fell to $42/share which is an absolute steal for RIMM in my opinion.  Our twitter shows our exact calls on the movement of RIMM in those weeks such as the call of the "valley" (low point of stock $42/share) on Aug 15 and now the stock has slowly climbed to $51.72 after today.  I would "hold" at $51.72 because I expect the stock to return to $60 possibly by the end of 2010 (December 31, 2010) and I will let the day traders collect the gains in the meantime, and we will cash in our 40% return at the end of the year.   Ironically, that might turn out to be a 10% return/month which is what GoGreen states as it's average return per month..


Follow us @gogreenGGI

BP

BP was a filet mignon at $25 a few months back and it still looks like a pretty good investment right now at $41.49..love BP moving forward.  I expect a price in the 60's by the end of summer 2011.  Short-term gains of 10-15% can be had on the stock in the upcoming 1-2 months

MONDAY OCT 18

DNDN is at a nice spot right now, 37.83..we tweeted we also like C (below $4), MSFT ($25) and INTC (below $19).

To Any New Followers

Our past number one stock was BIDU, ironically around the time it ran from 80-100, (well loved it pre-stock split, pre-$180 [stock ran to 780 and had a 10:1 stock split]) and our new number one stock for right now "LIVE" we have [had] SNDK at $35.85 (Sept 24), now at $39.21. SNDK great stock, set price target at $45 and that is attainable within three months at the minimum and a 6-month price target of $52.50 for a 40% gain.

Please check out our twitter @gogreenGGI to see past performance. Thanks and lets Go Green!

Can You Stop AAPL and GOOG

These are two of my top three "safe" stocks with BIDU being the the third.  GOOG reported earnings today and trounced expectations.  The stock is currently up $58 just today and much higher than it was when the stock was priced nicely at around $450/share a few months ago.  These are two of the best stocks to be in in this market and I would advise everyone to invest in GOOG, AAPL, and BIDU

AstraZeneca

Usually I don't fall for pharmaceuticals but AstraZeneca (AZN) is also on Go Green Investments stock watch.  They got approval for an arthritis drug and report earnings in two weeks which I see them surpassing estimates so Go Green recommends AstraZeneca (AZN) at $52.89..coming from a person who is anti-pharmaceuticals industry that is saying something.  Pfizer is the other pharmaceutical stock I follow and PFE is in general just okay in my mind..would be the first stock I'd drop from the stock watch
