Right now, i have 65 shares in William Lyon Homes(WLS), and 75 or so in Apple(AALP). What are some good upcoming stocks to make fast money in couple months? Our teacher wants us to be diverse and invest in many types of things. He wants us to invest in a blue chip, a risky one, a mutual fund. so any ideas? please TRY to keep it simple if u can. Thanks -Max"

Iwould say as the oil prices are going up the oil companies are going to have a bad profit therefore there prices are going to drop according to my understanding of the market i could expect the prices to fall a slightly and allowing a short term rally of oil stocks. however im not aware of any so there you would have to make some research on that part.
