Mutual funds and other big investors rarely look at stocks priced under $10 that are thinly traded. Institutional investors generally prefer liquid names so they can buy and sell easily. The best time to buy stocks is when the major stock indexes are in an uptrend. Target your buys to firms showing strong earnings and sales growth in recent quarters thanks to an innovative new product or service. Stocks like this will generally be trading closer to new high ground. In the early stages of a new rally, stocks staging technical breakouts in heavy volume from sound bases have a good chance of becoming market leaders. Sometimes, a market rally will come under pressure when there are increasing signs of institutional selling in the market. Institutional selling is seen by a rising number of distribution days, or heavier-volume declines, by the major stock indexes. Selling like this can stop a market rally in its tracks. When the outlook turns to market rally under pressure, it's time to assess stocks in your portfolio and consider locking in partial or full profits. And if you have a small loss in a stock, consider selling to minimize losses. Cash is a good place to be when the major stock indexes are in a correction. Market corrections occur due to heavy institutional selling in the market. Distribution days, or heavier-volume declines, in the indexes are generally a sign of institutional selling. When the market tide is flowing negative, it's a risky environment for new buys. http://www.investors.com/StockResearch/StockNews/...oration-EMAN.aspx
