if you dont mind me asking, how much do you guys invest in this TOP 10 list? I am assuming when they say invest in top 10, they are asking us to invest minimum 500. as the avg stock broker fee is 12 ish.

I have been following the 50 top stocks for 2 1/2 years now.  When I started the advice posted was to buy the top ten and hold for 6 months.  Which was good - because for every time I have purchased the top 10 - I would have lost money at the end of the first month.  The return has been decent when held for at least 6 months.

And - I have asked the questions before - why did the "advice" change?  I have it printed out - it was "hold for 6 months" , not hold for only one month.
