Long Term Investment: Pets

Almost any item that will have a demand in Cataclysm can net you amazing profit if you stockpile it now. Pets are a great example, namely the pets from the Oracles' Cracked Egg Sholazar Basin. This Egg requires you to be revered with the Oracles, and requires you to wait three days until it hatches into something.


The only people who will be in Northrend in Cataclysm are ambitious players or levelers. Without the portals it will actually take effort to go to Northrend and back. The average player will not go to this effort to obtain the pets rewarded from this Egg and would much rather head to the Auction House to find their favorite pets there.

The pets that you should be stockpiling now are:
Cobra Hatchling
Tickbird Hatchling
White Tickbird Hatchling
Proto-Drake Whelp


 The first three hatchlings listed all have a 20% drop rate, but the Proto-Drake Whelp has a much lower drop-rate. It will sell for far more than the others because the demand is the same but the supply will be far less than that of the other pets.

You should be thinking about selling these pets slowly any time after the release of Cataclysm, and there's really no reason you shouldn't be doing this on your main character! Hope this tip helps you!
