2006 HOTFLASH PICKS

Here are HotShotStocks PicksPerformance for 2006. There were some decliners, for sure, there were a few that remained unchange. Then there are the big (and we mean BIG!) advancers as you will see! Conversely, we chose not to mark the issues that only advanced under 10% and we did not mark the decliners.

These percentages are not potential gains, they are actual gains from the day we picked the stock, to the last trading day of the year.

Take a moment to look at the closing amounts from 2005-2006. Most of our picks did very well in a 52 week span, even if they were decliners from the date of our pick! If you want to check out the potential gain, then take the closing amount from 2005 and compare it to the closing amount of 2006.
