I love it, Forbes puts out just a strange concept article of showing some at home pictures of “Top Armchair Gurus” with their 2007 stock picks and Allen Hill picked Microvision (MVIS). Check out the picture of Robert Candelaria wearing the stylish sunglasses on his head (thinks he wears them at night?) or Gary Tucker in what looks to be his high school prom photo. You may recall we just did an article on MVIS and we speculated that once they find a buyer for their PicoP technology it is game on and off to the races. Not to mention the potential market overseas for PicoP and all of its splendor. BusinessWeekOnline just put out a story and Peter Conley, managing director at MDB Capital Group said Microvision’s “mini projectors have created tremendous buzz… The market for the laser-based displays in micro form is huge, as the cell-phone market is still basically untapped.” Joel Achramowicz, an analyst at MDB Capital, rates the stock a buy and expects Microvision to partner with a handset maker by summer. He sees the stock, now trading at $3.16, doubling in a year. Today shares are trading up 6%, don’t get me wrong Masters, this is still a risky play, so use that gambling money.

We know you’ve heard enough about Google (GOOG) but as Noteable Calls points out today Citigroup reiterated their Buy rating and $600 price target on GOOG for seven good reasons. We’ve provided this link before but the more we all use Google it’s hard not to think that Robert Cringely could be correct about Google’s eye on world domination. Most of us keep waiting for Google’s shares to split, but everyone including GOOG says that’s not in the cards. Want to buy 100 shares? Well that just comes to $46,900 at today’s price. No problem, let me just get out my debit card, or do you take checks?
