Gold Stock and Flu Vaccination Stock

[tedtodd]

I've been buying and selling SLGLF.ob for a couple years now. It tends to hover around .16 but often fluctuates over .20 and as high as .90- its currently at .11 and with gold prices going up- and its normal fluctuation- this has quick profit potential.

Another one is- MEDI
they have a nasal flu shot that goes for about $300 a snort. theres a nationwide shortage of flu-shots, but MEDI has fully stocked shelves. i believe they have huge potential.

Keep an eye on both of these...

Unless someone is gouging, that stuff wholesales for $46/dose and shouldn't retail for more than about $65. There's also a $25 coupon for consumers. It's still expensive, but anyone selling it for $300 should be exposed to non-inactivated influenza strains as punishment for their greed.

I will definitely keep an eye on them. And please give us periodic updates. But I prefer to bet on something that I feel is going up long term, over the next 6 months to a year.

I think it is a bit riskier to try to time shorter-term trends like gold prices or availability of flu vaccines. Though if you get the timing right, I don't doubt you can make a killing.

If you had been quick enough to invest in those face recognition companies that make cameras for airport security and casino security, you would have made a mint.

But perhaps I should start placing small bets on things like these.

My style has been to place large bets on longer term trends. Like 6-9 months ago, betting $50,000 (or whatever) that say McDonalds will be higher in 2 years after they just hit their lowest price in 5 years.


My concern is that if gold tends to peak in times of economic uncertainty, then what does the long term future hold. I think our economy is improving, along with the economies of Europe and Asia.

If that is correct, maybe gold will drop and I should be looking into energy.


The problem with energy is that the prices are already pretty darn high. I would be a lot more comfortable if the prices were low.

But if I believe the world economy is starting to heat up, then energy should be a good long term play.
