Hey On-Ramp,
No surprise that folks are reluctant to offer investment advice: given the highly volatile nature of equity investments, my guess is that folks are afraid you'd get burned on something they recommended.
A broker will lose their Series 7 license for making a recommendation to an anonymous person over the internet, not knowing anything about them their tolerance for risk, growth objectives, etc.
Is your retail broker coming up with any good ideas? From time to time I sit down with mine, make them buy me lunch, and talk over strategy, portfolio allocation, risk-tolerance and macro factors like interest rates.
All the bulge-bracket shops (Merrill, JPMorganChase, etc.) have private client folks that can be helpful.
Hope that helps!
