We discuss it every day here at Fool HQ. And from your emails, article comments, board posts, and CAPS blogs, we know you do, too.

Whether the market's up or down, we are all water-cooler speculating about the biggest market opportunity. This week, a bunch of Fools analyzed whether your favorites are big opportunities or big sucker bets.

We've created a Foolish version of those lame book-recommendation lists to help you prioritize your reading:

If you like UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH  ) and/or indecision, you'll love: Biggest Market Opportunity: Health-Care Stalemate?

If you like Gold Shares (NYSE: GLD  ) ETF, or, to spoil the surprise ending, Silver Wheaton (NYSE: SLW  ) , you'll love: Biggest Market Opportunity: Gold?

If you like Procter & Gamble's (NYSE: PG  ) Tide detergent or Clorox's (NYSE: CLX  ) bleach, you'll love: Biggest Market Opportunity: Consumer Staples?

If you like collecting miniportraits of Ben Franklin or just like reading investing quotes from Berkshire Hathaway's (NYSE: BRK-A  ) Warren Buffett or Baupost Group's Seth Klarman, you'll love: Biggest Market Opportunity: Cash? (No, I'm Not Insane)

If you like, well, Sirius XM Radio (Nasdaq: SIRI  ) , you'll love: Biggest Market Opportunity: Sirius XM?

If you like investments with the potential to reach the stratosphere (get it?), you'll love: Biggest Market Opportunity: Cloud Computing?

These are only six of your favorites. We know we've missed a lot of them, so use the comments box below to let us know what you think the biggest market opportunity is.

The Steve Jobs Betrayal
You may already know that in the final year of his life, Jobs revealed a stunning betrayal — and told his biographer, "I will spend my last dying breath... and every penny of Apple's $40 billion in the bank to right this wrong." What was it that made Jobs so irate — and why could it make a few in-the-know investors some major profits over the coming months and years?

Enter your email address below to find out what made Jobs so enraged!

    If you're as fed up as I am about Jim cramer, Mad Money and thestreet.com slandering sirius and their attempted market manipulation tactics, call them directly at 1-561-354-4400 and ask for the man responsible. Glenn Hall editor in chief of thestreet.com. Guess what else I did. I called LUNDY LAW offices (1-866-281-8612) in Philadelphia to sue cnbc and mad money, jim cramer, and glenn hall for the pain and suffering i've been going thru since they decided to illegally slander this company. NOONE WILL STAND UP FOR YOU! THIS IS ILLEGAL! YOU CAN DO SOMETHING BECAUSE THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION IS OBVIOUSLY LETTING THIS HAPPEN! MAYBE I WON'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE, BUT AT LEAST I'M TRYING! Siri will skyrocket tomorrow when the third quarter earnings come out and the motleyfool, street.com, glenn hall and jim kramer will all eventually pay for their slander and market manipulation tactics. Good luck with your stocks, I'm still happy with mine.
