3 Stocks on Our Radar

By Chris Hill | More Articles
August 21, 2009 | Comments (3)

In the latest installment of our Motley Fool Money podcast, advisors Seth Jayson, Charly Travers, and Shannon Zimmerman discuss some of the big questions of the week. 

  • How threatened should Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN  ) feel about Google’s (Nasdaq: GOOG  ) plan to display portions of books online?
  • Why did Steve Jobs’ hiring practices at Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL  ) make headlines this week? 
  • Will Starbucks’ (Nasdaq: SBUX  ) decision to both raise and lower prices on certain drinks pay off for investors?
  • And since Google went public five years ago this week, can our panel name the only six stocks in the S&P 500 that have outperformed the search giant? (Don’t bet on it.)

All that, plus hear why Volcom (Nasdaq: VLCM  ) , Zimmer Holdings (NYSE: ZMH  ) , and Pacific Sunwear (Nasdaq: PSUN  ) are the three stocks our panel is eyeing this week.

    AMZN = YAHOO = overpriced & overvalued

    AAPL = ok but somewhat fairly priced

    SBUX = garbage

    On my radar? No way jose!
