I wanted to get this review out before it is no longer the weekend :). Las week I reviewed stocks from the week of January 30, 2006 . Let's take a look at the following week and see how stocks 'picked' during the week of February 6, 2006 worked out!

<> As I like to point out, this review assumes a 'buy and hold' strategy to investing with equal dollar amounts purchased in each of the stocks reviewed during the particular week and the overall performance calculated as an average of the individual performances. In practice, I employ a very different disciplined portfoli...

Web 2.0 phenomena is going to drive the need for better management of the network resource.  The stock has come down from its highs.

Could be attractive entry point.  I like the stock for the second half of 07.

Trade Update - Akamai Graphic_rating_buy AKAM

One of my recent trades, Akamai Tech (AKAM), has started to have a nice move in the last several days.
I am not ready to get out yet, but I think I may hedge a little of my long expsoure as the stock nears some resistance.
The stock is approaching its overhead 200-day average, which could act as resistance the first time it is tested. Also, a look at the stochastics on the chart shows that the stock is also well into overbought territory as it approaches said resistance level.

Stock of the Day Graphic_rating_buy AKAM
 My Stock of the Day is Akamai (AKAM).

AKAM is a great growth company, that often trades at a premium multiple. The stock suffered a tumble after reporting earnings in April. It wasn't that the earnings were bad, but that investors had lofty expectations, and punished the stock unfairly when they didn't raise guidance more.

The stock has been undergoing a correction for the last couple of months, but the recent action leads me to believe that the correction is almost over, and the stock is ready to resume its uptrend.

Akamai is about as low as it will get. You might be able to buy a coupld dollars lower over the next couple weeks if you get lucky, but this one is about as low as I think it will go.

We have insider buying going on, more video based websites in the top 100 websites list and those sites are all getting more popular every day.

Limelight is being aggressive in their sales efforts, but Akamai is best IMHO.

Worst case scenario, I think the head back to the mid fifties when people start rolling back into tech later this year.
