What would be some fun stocks to own (watch)?

I have a weseed account and bought Dominos with there new pizza “make over” and Waste Management after seeing a show with the CEO doing some overhaul.

Starbucks would be a good one , I have solar/green energy companies and they have not faired well, First Solar and SunTech Power Holdings are two I have.

AT&T, Vodaphone, Sprint, Petsmart, pharmaceuticals.

Churchill Downs it’s Derby time.
Dick’s sporting goods people are starting to sport with this weather
Barnes and Nobles do people buy books from a store or do they
Amazon
WalMart the voice of America

or Lowes vs. Home Depot
Target vs. Walmart

The most obscure would be penny stocks, which is still an unregulated wild west for people who like getting screwed. Not all penny stocks are “bad”, but your risk as an investor is greater because you cannot sell your penny stock when you want to. The liquidity isn’t there, and if you urgently have to sell, you’ll just have to wait. But… they can be fun. For instance: PINK:MJNA (that means Pinksheet (Pennystock) with Ticker MJNA: Medical Marijuana, Inc., a medical marijuana services company

As for regular NYSE/NASDAQ stuff, then here’s some fun ones:

In my opinion, what the company actually does… does not matter. Not even the P/E ratio matters. All that matters is the stock chart pattern. (Fundamentalists will strongly disagree). Pay attention to the Sector first, individual stock, 2nd.

AUY (Yamana Gold) tends to go up when gold goes up, since it’s a mining operation.
or GLL (a pro-shares anti-gold fund on steroids… bet on GLL if you think gold is going down)
SLB (Schlumberger) is an oilfield production services company
MCD (McDonalds) not unusual but a good, easy stock to dive in and out of
SDOW (pro-shares fund that goes WAY up when the Dow goes down… stands for “short the dow”
