I have some extra money and i’m looking to put it in the stock market to see what happens. I’m wondering what some good stocks might be to buy? I’m looking at some of the bank stocks and they are at bargain prices!! If they are good buys which banks do you think will get back on track? Any tips would be great, i’m new to this by the way.

Yes well I have an etrade account, and I would like to invest about 200-400 bucks in penny stocks, or stocks that are quickly on the rise. Anyone know some great websites or a stock I should/can get started with? Thanks for the help.
