Online investing has never been easier in the history of the US stock market. Discount online brokerage firms like Scottrade are offering trades for less than 10 dollars. Ameritrade and E trade are two other discount online brokerages who offer trades at about this price. Competetion has brought the price of trades down dramatically over the last few years. If you happen to be a Wells Fargo customer, you can even place trades for much less depending on your net assets.

Of course, if the company continues to earn money, one can apply normal valuation techniques. By that measure, many of these stocks appear outrageously undervalued: an indication of great buys.

Recent market trends bring this story to mind. On this emotional roller coaster, it's hard to know whether to laugh or cry. For all practical purposes, the war is over. That's good.

Analyzing growth stocks is an important focus for any investor.

The problem is that many of these reevaluations are moving people away from their goals. As the market has dropped, rather than moving toward buying at the cheaper prices, we've seen people move away from stocks, a strategy which has little long term benefit.
