Long Term Stocks ( Internet/Travel Stocks ) - TravelZoo (TZOO)
( $27 ) - I recently bought TravelZoo in my long term stock portfolio and plan on adding more stock if the price stays below $30. Why do I think TZOO is
a good stock? Local Deals! TravelZoo started a new brand over the past year called local deals in which they team
up with restaurants, spas, hotels, gold courses, ect and offers high quality deals. ( http://www.travelzoo.com/local-deals/ ) Local Deals are becoming the core business at TravelZoo and
the website is now ranked #3 in the deal website space. TravelZoo is expected to earn $1.75 in 2012 which
is up from the $1.38 expected in 2011. At $1.75 and with a stock price of $27, TZOO is trading at a 15 P/E
ratio for 2012. This is great if the company can sustain or beat earnings estimates. Based on the current
stock price, Wall St is saying TravelZoo cannot hit $1.72 in 2012. I currently own TravelZoo (TZOO)
stock at an average price of $29.97 and plan to hold it until at least the end of 2012
Solid Long Term Stocks - ( Technology Stocks ) - Apple Inc. (AAPL) - ( $382 ) - Apple Inc. (AAPL) is another stock worth purchasing for the
long term going into 2012. The iPhone and iPad continue to be a dominate force in the technology world and there are
no signs of this changing. Back in 2009, I made a stock recommendation on AAPL stock at $131. While I don't think the stock will go up 210% in the next year, we could still see Apple hit $500
in 2012. Apple is a large company but growing at a high rate. There is a lot of upside for AAPL assuming the company
keeps beating estimates at a high pace.
Top Long Term Stocks ( Coffee Stocks ) - Green
Mountain Coffee (GMCR) - It's True, Green Mountain Coffee is still one of the best long term growth story
stocks we have right now. GMCR has gone up 450% since I wrote about it in December 2009. I alerted members around $60 but then the stock rallied and did a 3:1 stock split which turns the
original buy price into $20 per share. GMCR recently hit a high of $112 before pulling back to $40. K-Cups and
the Keurig Coffee brewing machine are seeing record sales. If you get the chance to buy GMCR below $50, I'd do so for
the long term.
