Readers Pick the Top 20 5-Year Horizon Stocks

I would consider adding POT, and SLW to the mix to be considered on the list. POT is an extremely well run and dominant company with excellent fundamentals, and low valuation, with superior ROE .

POT has an estimated forward 2010 PE of 12. It has shown 32% earnings growth the last 5 years, and is estimated to show 40% growth earnings going forward.

I like AAPL, but I don't like the valuation. An estimated 28-32 forward.
Earnings growth last five years 75%, next five an estimated 20%.

In five years, SLW is a potential 4 bagger, and it is still at an attractive valuation--forward 19 estimated.
Growth the last 5 years-79%, next five years --estimated 19%.

25 Ultimate Sustainable Energy Growth Stocks

The sustainable energy bridge fuel (between todays oil dependence and the distant futures greater reliance on renewables) is natural gas. And natural gas companies are profitable at these low prices. I dont see the need to put much too capital into risky strartups when companies that will be producing energy for the next 25-50 years are profitable today.
