Stock Trade Ideas For Thursday June 21

Posted: 20 Jun 2012 02:43 PM PDT

( click to enlarge )

Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARNA) remains one of the hottest stocks on Wall Street right now making all time highs almost every day. The stock is trading back over all three major moving averages. I like the stock as long as it can continue to close at or over $8. Pullbacks to the 10-day moving average should be a great buying opportunity for a trade. However, I would like to point out that the technical indicators are extremely overbought here, with RSI at 89 and … [visit site to read more] or compare Credit Card Rewards and Best Credit Cards

Small Cap Dividends – Can Small Be Beautiful?

Posted: 20 Jun 2012 06:57 AM PDT

In the search for strong, reliable dividends, investors usually turn to the robust yields and comforting track records of the market's largest companies – but an increasing number are beginning to look further afield for income. 
With around seven blue chip stocks accounting for around 50 percent of dividend payouts (and the top 15 payers representing more than 80 percent of dividends), it would be fair to say that small cap stocks are not a familiar hunting ground for income seekers. … [visit site to read more] or compare Credit Card Rewards and Best Credit Cards
