Calling all stock experts...should I buy these stocks now?

[jwblue]

I am thinking about jumping in the market now. Would this be a good time to buy any of these stocks?

> Starwood (HOT)

> MGM Mirage (MGM)

> United Airlines (UAUA)

I know the obvious answer is that these are all travel stocks and in this down market this is likely not the best time to buy. But I wanted to find out if any stock gurus think this might be a good time to buy these.

I wouldn't buy any gaming stocks right now. Casinos have falling revenues and they aren't going to recover until the economy does. IMO

There are TONS of stocks at low prices right now. Apple was at $90 at one point during this idiocy today. Closed at $98. It hasn't been at $90 in almost 2 years.

just a general idea with investing Inspades, dont invest in airlines.

Have a few broker friends that all agreed on one thing for right now: buy the biggest and best companies in each sector if you are investing now. JPM, GE, CHK, MCD are a few they all liked when I mentioned them. When this thing comes correct, the industry leaders will lead the rally.

I agree. Garbage, top to bottom. Or side to side since they're all pretty much in the same shitty position in the same shitty industry.
