My advice is to get a professional financial advisor, unless you do a ton of research and like to gamble (which is essentially what flipping stocks is).
The mutual fund + investment portfolio my brother set up for me is up 10.5% since I liquidated all of my blue chips stocks and dumped the funds into it. It has already paid back the cap gains in the 5-6 months since I made the change. He also took a look at my company Roth 401k funds and made recommendations on the %'s I should invest in each fund...that is also now up 10+%
