Time for another edition of Following The Fool’s “This Week’s 5 Smartest Stock Moves.” The list does not give recommendations, but it reviews highlights from the past week. I thought it would be interesting to see if any of the picks turned out to be good going forward.
Two weeks ago, Rick Munarriz listed six stocks and last week he listed four (he wrote about a possible Facebook IPO as his fifth choice). Below you will find how the picks panned out for the week of 9/18 – 9/25.

Intuit (INTU) – Price when reported by the Fool: $27.77. Closing price on 9/25: $27.65. One-week rate of return: -0.43 percent.
Google (GOOG) – Price when reported by the Fool: $491.46. Closing price on 9/25: $492.48. One-week rate of return: +0.208 percent.
Blockbuster (BBI) – Price when reported by the Fool: $1.36. Closing price on 9/25: $1.13. One-week rate of return: -16.9 percent.
Citigroup (C) – Price when reported by the Fool: $4.26. Closing price on 9/25: $4.38. One-week rate of return: +2.8 percent.
So, we’ve got a mixed bag here with two out of four in positive territory for the fourth week of September. Barring any unforeseen bad news, it looks like markets will buck the trend and close September on a higher note.
This week’s picks are Dell Computer (DELL), A123 (AONE), Yahoo! (YHOO), Netflix (NFLX), and Google (GOOG). For the complete article, visit thefool.com.
Next Saturday, we’ll check up on The Fool once more.
