Five Internet Stocks To Buy And One To Avoid

Hello traders everywhere, today will be looking at Internet stocks and what's hot and what's not. The six stocks we will be looking at today are Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN), Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX), Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB), Yelp Inc. (NYSE:YELP) and finally Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO).

There is no question about it we live in the Internet age or as Intel likes to say "The Internet of everything."

When trading Internet stocks momentum seems to be the rule of the day, and when an internet stock is in favor and going up you want to be long and when they're going down you want to be out. Sounds pretty straightforward doesn't it? But sometimes investors drink the Kool-Aid and stay with bad trades too long or in this case Internet stocks that go south and never return. In today's video will show you how to avoid that syndrome.

As you can see from the symbol choices, these are all well-established, liquid companies in terms of trading, you are not buying speculating in some start-up that makes no money.

So let's get started and go to the videotape and see what's cooking with these six stocks.

Every Success,

5 Internet Stocks For 2014

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and co-creator of MarketClub, with your video update for Friday, the 9th of May.

A few weeks ago, I introduced MarketClub's new Internet portfolio. This portfolio consists of five major stocks that are heavily involved with the Internet. Today I thought I would revisit this portfolio and share with you the current positions and money management stops.

Last year this portfolio produced a positive 65% return on invested capital. No one has a crystal ball that can say exactly what is going to happen to the markets in 2014. However, I do feel that the odds of these five Internet stocks moving either to the upside or the downside is very high.

As traders, we need to have movement in order to make money. We cannot make money in stocks that are stagnant and moving sideways. That's why it's important to have diversification in any portfolio.

Your thoughts on FaceBook buying WhatsApp?

The big news today, at least in the internet/financial world, is FaceBook’s purchase of WhatsApp, an instant messaging service. WhatsApp has 55 employees, 450 million users and was started a little over 4 years ago. It also makes very little money. The price tag for WhatsApp is rumored to be $19 billion dollars, $4 billion in cash and the balance in FaceBook stock.

In essence, FaceBook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB) is buying 450 million eyeballs to make a major move into the mobile space. Do you think it was a mistake to buy WhatsApp and what effect do you think this acquisition will have on the stock of FaceBook?

Do you think FaceBook's stock will go up or down from here?
