Alert HQ for the week ending March 14, 2008

This post is to announce that the latest list of stock alerts is up and available at Alert HQ.

It was an eventful week on Wall Street with major averages finishing more or less where they started despite significant volatility. The financial sector fell again but the rest of market managed to at least tread water. Tuesday's huge rally was undone by Friday's decline after news of the Bear Stearns bailout. Still, there were a few signs of hope as the market has still not broken below the January lows.

We had less negativity in the overall market this week so thankfully we didn't have a repeat of last week when we had no BUY signals at all.

As a result, this week we have an alert list of four BUY signals and one SELL signal.

Later this weekend I will be writing another post to describe my analysis of the market statistics the Alert HQ software has generated and to discuss the performance of some of the picks from past weeks.

Pick 'o the Month - a two'fer

Usually I focus on a single smaller, more obscure stock. In this case, I would like to submit two stocks, a large-cap, Cisco Systems ( CSCO ), and a small-cap, Big Band Networks ( BBND ). These two stocks embody a resurgence in the network infrastructure space. That theme is what ties these two picks together. With the rising tide of video, music and movies downloaded over the Internet and cable companies offering bundled TV, phone and Internet, we have finally absorbed the glut of network capacity created during the Internet bubble. This deluge of multimedia is changing service providers’ business models, and the ways they manage and develop networks. The focus now is on how to move, manage and monetize content that is richer and more complex than ever before. In response, as telecommunications companies ramp up newer, faster networks to handle all this traffic, Cisco Systems is a prime beneficiary. As the dominant player in network infrastructure, it has already seen profits begin to...
