10 Best Forestry Stocks To Buy Right Now

With just a quick glance at the chart, Bona Film Group Ltd (NASDAQ:BONA) doesn't look like anything other than an erratic mess. When you take a step back and take a look at the longer-term chart of BONA, however, you can see the last several weeks have ushered in a major bullish change of direction for the stock... meaning now's a great time to start wading into a position.

For those not familiar with the company (which is likely to be most of you), BONA is diversified Chinese film company. Bona Film Group Ltd does everything from filming movies to distributing them to supplying the talent that stars in films. As you might imagine for a small movie-media outfit, revenue and earnings are uneven for this company. But, it's at least producing revenue, and is profitable more often than not. That alone makes it unique among companies of its size and ilk.
