What do you think would be the best and the worse investment in the stock market for 2008?

Pure speculation, but think about stocks in alternative energy and Oil. Demand for these will be high.

Any type of financial institutions with large holdings in residential and commercial real estate and big mortgage arms. Also, real estate development companies and home furnishings will hurt too. It will continue to bottom out in 2008.

As always technology.. I'm trying to find stocks involving up and coming High Definition Media type companies. Especially streaming media, which in my opinion is going to be the future of Television and movies.

Best IMO is things people always will pay for even in this recession - energy, tobacco (Altria), JNJ

Worst is house construction, and the whole financial sector.

gold, crude oil, silver, dry goods,

Pharmecuticals and Alternative energy and large cap telecom. these things are going to fly.... also love MO , you should check out the model portfolios at www.thewallstreethunter.com they have a pretty good track record for picking stocks, also offer pretty good market updates everyday...

Year after year I think technology is the worst overall. A lot of that technology requires a lot of research and development expenses. Any company that has gains will have to compete with 100's of other companies trying to get in the market with similar technology and soon all the profits are gone. Who wants to go into business and mess with giants such as Walmart?

If I am just looking at this year, then I would say the worst investment of the first half is Banking and financials. second half the best investment will be......Banking and financials.

I am trying to buy up banking as much as possible right now.
