Jon Ekoniak, senior technology analyst at U.S. Piper Jaffray, has a buy rating on Ariba (ARBA: Research, Estimates). He said Ariba is a strong company with a great market share. "We're confident that although we may see some bumps in the near-term and some risk in product transition as they bring new products on board, we're confident that longer term, management can maintain a solid rate of growth," Ekoniak said.

KMI
MO

Barry Hyman, chief investment strategist at Weatherly Securities, said he likes energy company Kinder Morgan (KMI: Research, Estimates) and Philip Morris (MO: Research, Estimates). One reason he cited for liking Kinder is that it is acquiring and it has also performed well. Hyman said Philip Morris looked positive because it will be spinning off Kraft soon. "I think you can look forward again another one to a 20-to-25 percent return on that particular stock," he said.
