I will say you should try to broading your horizion if you wih to invest in stock to make a good profit.Looking for a stock or recommending stocks to circle in and out in 2 to 3 week might be risky at this bearish perod.So also the price you gave didnt help matters for me those are low valued stocks with weak fundamentals and you may probably not achieve your aim and you end up lossing your money.Any way may be you look towards insurance sector may be you may be lucky.

Don't be offended, but I would advice that you put your money under your pillow or you put it in a savings account if you only want to invest for 2-3 weeks. The stock market can be fickle, especially in the time frame you are looking at; you may make 50% or you may lose 50%. If you need your money in 2-3 weeks, please keep it with you.

Tell me you are joking!

In/Out in 2-3 weeks looks more like participating in "kalukalu".

The downside to this approach is enormous, but it also depends on how old you are. The younger you are the more time you have to bounce back if you make some serious mistakes. Ability to bounce back also depends on whether you have a dependable source of income, to replenish.

Granted there are some stocks that might appreciate greatly within this time-frame but one is normally ALREADYin it (for sometime) to benefit from this price rally.

Good luck.
