Wi-Fi was so yesterday. There’s a new network on the horizon and it’s called WiMax. Wi-Fi currently works in certain areas and speeds can be limited. WiMax will change everything.
Forget about your local Starbucks or bookstore being a hotspot, how about having your entire city being a hotspot? WiMax will allow you to use your laptop, phone, whatever anywhere at anytime. And the speeds will destroy DSL and 3G.
I’ve got a basket of stocks that you need to think about.

Ford (Symbol: F) has been a declining company for some time. Over the past few years, it’s become even more evident as sales of their bread and butter vehicle, the F-series truck, have fallen—and show no signs of improvement. The stock closed at $8.86 on June 20.
With gas prices showing no signs of a pull back, many consumers are looking for vehicles with good to great MPG numbers. Many are moving away from trucks and S.U.V.’s.

Recently, United American Healthcare (Symbol: UAHC) was touted on TV as a stock to own. Through the magic of TV promotion, the stock has risen roughly 10% since then. But, is this really a stock to own or is the increase just typical temporary fluff?
UAHC has rebounded from its 52-week low of $2.77 and is now being traded at $4.74—as of close on Tuesday, June 19. It’s currently at an astounding P/E ratio of 59.3.

On June 29, Apple’s iPhone will finally be unleashed on the public. While it’s a potential homerun for Apple, is there a play to be made on AT&T (Symbol: T) or will the stock experience a pullback?
Recently, I’ve heard many stock traders touting AT&T. According to them, the stock is a “can’t miss” play. For those in the dark about why I’m talking about an Apple product and AT&T, let me explain.
AT&T, which bought Cingular, has a contract with Apple to be the exclusive service carrier of the iPhone. The actual time frame isn’t known, but most experts believe it’s a five-year deal.

Last night I was watching “On the Money” on CNBC and they had a piece about GPS Industries (Symbol: GPSN.OB), who makes a golf GPS system called the “InforemerHD.” The system looked polished, and I think it’s something that will continue to grow.
If you’re looking for a low-capital highly speculative play that might pay off, this just might be it. After doing some research into golf GPS systems, I learned that GPS Industries is 3rd in golf GPS system installations worldwide. They have their system installed at approximately 100 golf courses worldwide. GPSN.OB was trading at $0.11 per share on June 15.

Yesterday, I was venturing through various online stock communities and a few people were touting Revlon. They were saying that Revlon (Symbol: REV) could double. I decided to look into the stock.
As of today, Revlon is trading at $1.36, which is attractive for investors with very limited capital. However, this stock is going nowhere fast. Revlon’s 52-week high is $1.41 and that’s about where you’ll see it a year from now, because the company has no growth.

We’re now in the “money” season for Six Flags (Symbol: SIX) and all the indicators point to a possible stock price increase.
As of Wednesday, Six Flags was trading at $6.30 and it’s been in the $6 range for the better part of a year. Management for Six Flags instituted a 3-4 year “fix up” plan for the company and the results are already coming in.
On June 6th, 2007 I listened to the mid-quarter conference call update and CEO Mark Shapiro and CFO Jeff Speed shared some interesting insights.
