I want to invest $1000 tonight in one stock that will rise enough by tommorrow to make me money? Which stock?
Question:
Answer:
If you put money in your brokerage tonight, you probably won't be credited with it until the market opens tomorrow, so your question is a non-starter.
Let's say you do, by some magic, have it immediately available...your brokerage would have to allow trading in the after-hours market.
Let's say it does.you should be looking for a stock with a pretty high beta and a pretty low price to either gain or lose money within just a few hours, and you're speculating, not investing. :)
My advice is to get a few books on "momentum" investing (since this seems to be your interest) and consider learning something about the field. Everybody in it is there to take as much of your money as possible as fast as possible. Don't help them.
I'd invest in Verizon or Oil. I had stock dividends in Verizon a few years ago and was making quite a bit. But that was during mergers it was involved in.
Oil, of course...well...you know the story about gas prices !
My Doral financial stock has done well the last two days (NYSE: DRL)
1) Disney has merged with ESPN so it's been doing well.
2) Crude Oil
3) Google
My favorite stock right now that hasn't already made great moves up is ORCL, Oracle Corp., but keep in mind, if you take my(or anyones) tips, you may not know when we sell. You really do need to do your own homework and know why you are getting into a stock and know when and why you will exit. That is, if you are interested in making money...
If any of us knew how to answer that question, without risk, we'd be busy buying the stock, not wasting time on AnswersRoom.com.
No one has a crystal ball.
One should NEVER invest all in one stock. You should always find several good ones so you are diversified and don't lose it all.
Motley Fool has the best advice I have found. Find them here:

Your "broker" fees will eat most, if not all profit, AND the stock market sucks since 9-11, but, with time, and patience, and research, folks should make about 5%-8% over a 5-10 year period. Also, you might consider dumping a broker, and using sharebuilder.com! It's more fun to invest in a company YOU know about, and have researched, than to have a sock puppet tell you what he/she wants you to hear. Plus, you will save money :)
