They did recall it, costing a shit laod, plus all the lawsuits will be comming in...
You could go the other way and buy Pfizer stock as they will be profitting from this... People with Vioxx need a alternative most probbly Celebrex!

My advice is to try the imaginary trading. I know it's hard to keep track of something daily or weekly that's not real, but it'll pay off. Right now $200 is not really enough to start out with so keep saving, and by the time you have some more money your knowledge will be better. I like to stick with large stable corporations. EX: Home Depot, Coke, Walmart, Merck, Pfizer to name a few. Theres not a lot of opportunity to make a lot in the short term with these stocks, but after a few yrs I know what their low points are. Making a couple hundred dollars a month with these is good enough for me. The more money you can invest the more you can make (or lose). I prefer to pick a stable company, and sell after a 2 point increase. Each time I can get a few more shares.
