So there's this "stock project" where we have to pick some stocks we would want to invest in and why, then we have to pick bad stocks we would not invest in and why. I can't think of any bad ones! I know, GM or Ford, but everyone in my class is doing that so I need something else...

How about DELL ? They are going to report finally and I think it's gonna take another hit.
Damn. Looks like I was wrong. You win some, you lose some.

I consider any restaurant stock to be bad. Merely my opinion.
Alot of insurance stocks suck too.

Two stocks I love to hate are Verasun (VSE) or Pacific Ethanol (PEIX).
Verasun is slightly profitable. Pacific Ethanol is losing money.
Ethanol cost more to produce than gasoline, and is very expensive to ship because it is too corrosive to send thru pipelines. It must be sent by rail or truck.
Costs for these companies will continue to rise because corn is at record high. World grain supplies are not high enough to reduce these prices.
Ethanol is highly subsidized by the government. It has been argued that these subsidies are popular, and likely to continue in the foreseeable future. I would say that a business that relies on government subsidies to exist is a poor business.
When oil was trading at over $70 a barrel, these stocks were much higher than they are now. Technical analysts call this sort of situation 'overhead supply'. That means many people bought these stocks at a higher price, and will be eager to sell if the price starts to move up again.

One to invest in.... (WNR) is purchasing (GI ) for 77.00 per share
WNR has 67 mill shares outstanding..GI has 14.5 mill..WNR will have more than doubled it's income and profits with this purchase... I highly recommend Yahoo Finance to check on stocks.. You can put in the symbol and then click on Key Statistics and print out all the shares, income, debt, and other important information.. You also have available charts, insider trading and other necessary performance characteristics of a company for the last four quarters..and back to it's inception
Here are some high risk stocks..PUDC..GMTI..GSHF..HQSM..IGPG..AID..ACPW.....
Another place for verifying stocks is "Barchart.com" click on opinion and they give you more stats... I take Barchart lightly as they only operate strictly by composite indicators .................Good luck Anthony

I would say any of the major airlines (United, American, Northwest, Delta). Between government regulation, fuel prices and labor costs, it is darn near impossible for them to make money.
