1) What Could Be The Biggest Earnings Season Story Stock? + Lee’s take on GS, AAPL, PALM, DELL, MSFT, HPQ, CAKE, RIMM, GOOG, NOK, MOT, SNE, ERIC, DPZ, SIRI, AXP, FDX, VZ, and EBAY

Lee Allen Contributor

Here we are again, knee deep in earnings season, and more than a few exciting story stocks have emerged. From Goldman Sachs’ (GS) little tangle with the good people at the SEC to Apple’s (AAPL) potentially brilliant public relations stunt related to their next iPhone release. Oh… You thought some guy actually forgot his prototype iPhone in a bar?

There is never a quiet day this time of year. The challenge for leading journalists like me is to identify which stories are most significant and deserve my reporting time the most. And your reading time. No matter what my editor says. My goal is to always find what isn’t being said and say it. To find the story behind the story. The facts, insights, and hidden agendas some writers might shy away from for the sake of journalistic integrity. Someone has to do the job, and that someone is me. So in this season of extreme news noise, this week there is one story stock worth looking at a little closer… Palm (PALM)… Click Here  for Lee’s insights into this earnings season’s biggest story stock...

Could this be the real next generation iPhone left in a bar?  We hear Apple has a few of these in a warehouse in South Dakota.

8) Exclusive Special Report! Can The Food Industry Cook Up Profits In 2010?

Be one of the first to read and reap from this options trade based report.

Summary: Over the past year, the market has gone from being one of the scariest markets ever to one of the most boring ever. After hitting multiyear lows then going on a historic ten-month rally, it looks like we could be headed for an extended period of market stagnation coupled with one of the weakest economic recoveries in American history. Where can investors turn for a safe investment with modest but reliable returns? We may have found an answer to that question in the utility industry. With a stable business model, steady dividend payments, and a promising future, this oft forgotten industry could be a new source of profits for savvy investors.

Stocks Covered: Xcel Energy (XEL), Dominion (D), Wisconsin Energy (WEC), FPL Group (FPL),Center Point (CNP), Duke Energy (DUK), and more…
Target Returns: Up to 12.4% or 43.8% Annualized*
