I am 27 years old and am looking for some risk. My main objective is for my portfolio to be well balanced.

There's really no such things as 'the top
You need to look at what your investing goals are? Growth? Dividends (Income)? Tax shelter? Safety? etc.
Your top 5 will be different from the next guys becuase people have different levels of risk tolerance, goals, and time horizon...

OK. I have 2 things. First, do not invest in PBLS like that other person said or in any penny stock because i have experience in them. Many of them are scams, which looks like that one is. I had a stock that i bought at 2.97 symbol UDSG. Lol what a joke. It went down to .70, split and then went to .20 and thats where i took my loss. Since then it is down and hovering at a penny. Thats right 0.01. For the top stocks and if you are wanting risk, i will tell you to put money into Apple(aapl). If you want big bux next week put money into Apple 85 calls for febuary as i am expecting over %100 gain there. And for all saying that I am some one who does not know what they are doing, I made $1,000 into $5,000 last year. So ffor my top 5 stocks i will say Apple - aapl, Devon Energy - dvn( a takeover prospect) Hansens Natural -hans, NYX, and Toyota - tm. Good luck!!

I think balance is the key to your pursuit in the market for the next 12 months. Every serious investor is going to need it. If you do a little studying, you will find that small and mid-size companies are in good momentum right now. An allocation of 50% (min.) of total assets should be quite rewarding over the next 12 months.
Good, meaning best growth, would include companies like Xcel Energy (NYSE: XEL), Millennium Pharmaceuticals (NMS: MLNM) and Elan Plc (NYSE: ELN). Rounding out the lot of gainers would be: Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) and XM Satellite Radio (NMS: XMSR). I won't argue that, across the board, the responses you get in this forum are not always appropriate. But, there is at least one good one in every crowd. Get an advisor's input before you invest. Good luck!

Not a lot of risk in these, but they all should have good years
AAPL....high priced,going higher
TM........they seem to do everything right!
ANST... little known, all the "phone- makers" use their design programs
After those, look at China ETF's...XFI, ILF modernizing, industializing," coming-of age"...gov helping all facets of business to impress the world with the Olympics...
... then look to energy again...big hits lately...underpriced...those oil prices will kick up again soon...
.... much more risk?....CHCI...LVLT
....oh! and this one has been " creeping up" and could ( I said could) take off: EXP....42 something now ,last spring was 70, if it gets halfway there you're golden.
Sorry I couldn't stop at 5.

Put this stock in your portfolio they are positioned for "HUGE" Growth.
I keep telling everybody that PBLS is an AMEX stock in a penny stocks clothing.
But all the rocket scientist investors here seem to think its a pump and dump. Since I told everyone to research the snotts
out of it 3 days ago - it has risen 54.1%
PBLS it is a real company with real assets and businesses.
Watch it again for the next few weeks it will double again.
I would suggest that you spend the entire weekend researching PBLS. I have over 3000 hours of research time in this issue.
Just do the research and you will see !
This is one of my posts when it was at .012 it hit a high of .019 today and settled at the close of .0185 this stock will double many more times just do yourself a favor and spend the time on it before you buy.
Original post when I told people about it:
Research junkies and DD specialists
Put a couple of hours into PBLS @ .012 has more than most AMEX
stocks. Why is it @ a penny because they have not filed in 8 years.
In the last shareholders update they said they would file 1st Q 2007.
Read it all and verify it all: 206 million Revs 21 million profits
No debt 21 Million\815 mil OS = .0257 EPS for 2006
update link: http://www.pbls.biz/pressrelease_content...
8 hours minimum DD required on this Issue "PBLS"
P.S. They have puchased land and condo units in NewOrleans for $11.5 million dollars it has not been PR"ed" yet but it will.
They have taken over the development of this land.
As you can see from goog erth its being built upon.
That will give all the non believers on these theads a shock
That will show what getting off your lazy azz and doing research ( instead of paying for services )will do. Watch for the PR in the next few weeks.
Put these coordinates in Google Earth: Its the property they Purchased 3 weeks ago its called Tchefuncte Harbour Townhomes
30°24'16.27"N 90° 9'10.05"W
Madison Realty Capital financed 45% of this deal
and PBLS, LLC. paid for the balance.
I remind even the Large cap investors to put this stock on their platforms watchlist, Again - get off your lazay booty;s and do some research
The SEC info on the company from yahoo is incorrect
When they file in the next several weeks then all doubters will see that this was an AMEX stock in pennystocks clothing.
WATCH!

Start to watch Fox Network on Saturdays from 9:00 to 11:00 central time. They have good info on stocks. I believe that ethanol stocks are about to surge since the Dems have taken congress. Check out Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) and Pacific ethanol (PEIX).

If you want a good portfolio... well balanced & built for you... Why are you asking stranges (many of whom know very little or are doing something for their own profit) a question like this on Yahoo answers. Would you take suggestions from idiots? how do you know what peoples qualifcations are? even if they want to help... They don't know how your portfolio is balanced today!
Do a little work. Do this on your own. Don't seek advice from strangers......
