In addition most of the stocks on my list are high risk (which may be outside your comfort zone). Here's one that shouldn't be outside anyone's comfort zone.
BPSG: Fantastic boutique investment bank. They have the former head of global M&A for both Lehman Bros (80s) and Morgan Stanley, Eric Gleacher, in the CEO chair. He also happens to own 10% of the company, showing management and shareholder interests are aligned. Interesting thing about them is they posted a loss of -0.00 EPS in Q1. What it seems the market HASN'T taken into consideration is that the entire reason for that "loss" was a severance package for the former CEO. Without it they actually posted a pro-forma EPS of +0.11, a record quarter. They've consolidated their offices and streamlined operations. I expect a noteworthy Q2 from them.
My FAVORITE companies, however (ones that I deem low risk, yet still capable of pulling 50% or higher gains in 1 year's time) are:
WFC
PNC
GS (Yes, the same guys under fire from the SEC. I feel they are a fundamentally outstanding company whose stock is on fire-sale right now)
OTTR: What would a rounded portfolio be without at least one utilities company? In actuality, these guys are a conglomerated holding company with non-cyclical subsidiaries. With operations in all 50 states, a 6% dividend and a price per share that's held low for unknown reasons (To me, it looks like they've been posting fantastic quarters with reliable YoY revenue growth) I find it hard not to want this company. I think they'll produce fantastic returns, both through dividends and capital gains.
I should point out that I own all these companies (and yes, I do LOVE the financial sector), so my money is where my mouth is. I'm especially fond of BPSG and my post on the BPSG boards (despite the fact I may be the only one who goes there :P) underscores that.
