'Fast Money' Portfolios of the Week

Updated from 7:59 a.m. EDT

The traders of CNBC's "Fast Money" are constantly searching for the next big idea or trend in the markets that has the potential to make their viewers some meaningful profits.

The crew doesn't care if the idea is to go long or to short a stock, and they don't care what industry the opportunity comes out of. The traders have no bias, other than to make their fans the most money possible and keep the show entertaining and educational.

The gang recently highlighted trading ideas that play off of bullish action in the biotech sector, such as Celgene(CELG Quote - Cramer on CELG - Stock Picks); coal and steel stocks, including U.S. Steel(X Quote - Cramer on X - Stock Picks); and bank stocks, such as Barclays(BCS Quote - Cramer on BCS - Stock Picks). Here are some highlights from over the past week as aggregated from the show.

A note from James Altucher:

Every weekend I send an email to Jim Cramer and several hedge fund managers about the most interesting portfolios posted on Stockpickr that week. Usually those portfolios not only list stocks according to a theme but also offer significant analysis as to why the stocks are cheap.

Here are some examples:

• Stocks related to drilling the Marcellus Shale
• MLPS with yields above 7%
• Microcaps trading for less than tangible book
• Stocks that do well after Hurricanes

Here's the challenge: Build a portfolio at Stockpickr.com with great analysis, and send me the link. Each great portfolio (with analysis) will get posted on TheStreet.com with your byline (as a "Stockpickr Guest Columnist") and will be included in my email I send to Jim and the other hedge fund managers on my list.
