TSC Power Stocks Rankings: April 29

04/29/08 - 08:16 AM EDT

Patrick Schultz

During the week of April 21, TheStreet.com readers searched for 10 stocks more than any others.

Research associate Patrick Schultz makes the Buy, Sell or Hold call on them below, in the order of their popularity.

1. AppleAAPL: In its earnings report last week, Steve Jobs and company issued their standard conservative guidance, which sent AAPL shares down briefly. Don't people see this pattern of underpromise, and then beautifully overdeliver later? A lot of things are going right for the company, and its products are flying off the shelf. Be a buyer. -- BUY

2. PotashPOT: I will never get bored of making money, and that is why I refuse to get off the ag train. Many bears are screaming bloody bubble and saying that the ag stocks are just like the Internet stocks of 2000. I politely disagree for one simple reason. Potash and the rest of the ag complex are minting money. They are raking in mind-blowing profits while the Internet stock era only promised distant dreams of revenue and profits. The outstanding earnings report from Potash last week just confirms the thesis. -- BUY

3. First SolarFSLR: I still love the company but am not enamored of the share price. This is a classic investing conundrum; what does an investor do when the fundamentals of the company are great, but its equity shares are priced for perfection? For me, I sit and wait. I think a pullback below $270 would be a much better entry point. First Solar has so many positive things going for it, but that is no reason to blindly pay any price at any time. -- HOLD
