thereof, what site would give me the most accurate information? When I get that information what things are the most important to look at? What news sites or information sites telegraph the most useful news about stocks that are getting ready to gain?

You can get financial statements on finance.yahoo.com as well as smartmoney.com and many other financial websites. You can get quarterly and annual reports and other filings on sec.gov. You want to look for a company that is cheap given there Forward P/E ratio (20 or under is good), good growth opportunities, solid products or services that sell, a diversification of products and/or services. You also want a low debt/equity ratio, and a high current ratio. Besides that look for a good management team, preferrably management that has stake in the company, also a company that is spread out globally is good. Look on investopedia.com if you do not understand terms that I have given you.

If you want financial statements of a publically traded company, go to their website and download it, or phone them and get them to mail you a copy.
As for sites with info about stocks ready to go up...What have you been smoking. If these sites knew, they would buy all the shares, But it is a possibility they are hyping the shares so they can sell theirs while a bunch of dumb people run to the market to buy the hype.

Yahoo has an excellent finance section.
Otherwise go to your library and look at Value Line and Standard and Poors. They will tell you how they evaluate stocks.
No one can tell you when a stock is ready to gain. Sorry.
