I don't think so. Ask any investment advisor and he will say that it is not a good idea to obsess with your stock choices every day. Y ou have to have built-in a degree of comnfort that that is not necessary. Your time is better spent researching sectors and exchanges for the best 5 or 10 stocks in a defined target search. That takes a few hours and it is well spent. A portfolio can easily get to 6 figures with a good income this way (dividends).
In Canada that takes a few hours. And, we have better pickings right now. The US is a much bigger space. We have also gained on the exchange rate over the last 5 years.
The other most valuable tool is reading the paper every day and using common sense. 2 good examples; Carnaval and Ford. When that ship ran aground it tooka glance at that stock to realize that it was simply bad PR that would have no impact on the company. And I th ink ti was recalls that impacted Ford last summer. Great stock.
And it depends what you mean by "interest". This is just conversation. I don't/ can't discuss this with my friends because there is too much risk of being wrong. It is tough to know when to get out of something, and I am not going to put my friendships on the line.
I own maybe 3 or 4 stocks that are on the OTC and have boards on ihub. Very small quantities. Frankly, those boards are dull and boring. But, I intend to keep them. SO, my investing has nothing to do with SMBs.
So a broad-based search based on the numbers and your own intuition and experience is the best approach, not knowing every detail of an OTC stock, half of which is probably message board crap anyway. That, and reading the paper every day. Worst thing possible is to spend your time on a stock message board thinking you are accomplishing something.
JBI is not accountable btw that their cost is $10/barrel. I bet they have stated it nowhere. It is message board crap.
