If you want easiest way to invest look for Drips. Dividend investment programs.

They let you buy stock in companies like Exxon mobil for $250 to start then $50 anytime you want. They hold stock for you so you can not loose the stock. You reinvest all dividends so they compound and grow faster.

Next thing if you just want mutal funds Try Franklin Templeton. I have had good luck with them and they are cheap to start up account. You can even start up with $200 and have them take money monthly from checking account. This way you do not need alot of cash to start with.

Fidelity would be my choice for online broker they have tools to track what stocks did for years so you can see if any patterns.

 

I whant to buy actions ..... but i need to learn the roaps

Thanks

 

Just set up an account with a brokerage company like Scottrade.com, and put money into the account. Its simple.

 

Well, in my experience, there is really no hard and fast rule to investing. There is no sure way method as most of the time the stock market rides on sentiments and emotions rather than financial data or charts.

For long term investment, you will need to study the company that you want to invest in, look at all the public accounting records, track the income statement and balance sheet. Look at any prospects in the future which would grow or hurt the company.

Some people believe in charts as in when prices goes up too much, it may go into a correction and thus come down.

Some just trade based on emotions and current market sentiments.

It is best to invest small to get the feel of the market and invest a small select portfolio, like anything between 2 to 10 companies. This way it would be easier for you to track. If possible, buy into companies which do different things from each other, like maybe one bank, one property, one technology and so on.. Then track to see which stock works best for you.

Make sure that you only invest what you can afford to lose because if prices falls but the company has good fundamentals, you may want to hold on long term. Paper loss is not real loss and can be recovered if the market picks up.

Something like http://beginnersinvest.about.com/cs/newinvestors/l/blarticles.htm?terms=investment may be helpful to get you grounded.

As for brokers, I do not know any from Romania but shop around see who can give you the lowest fees and if they have online trading, it will definitely be great.

 

With the collapse of the YEN CARRY TRADE (borrow yen at extremely low rates and buy foreign stocks or deposit into higher yielding currencies), I wouldn't suggest you do that. Stocks are tanking right now cuz of overleverage and a host of other regional problems. Even gold is tanking. Park into bonds for the next 2 months and find out where you stand at that time.

 

Go to www.einvesting.com and create an account there... Personally I love this forum because you can trade/learn the markets with fake money and You can ask good questions and get good answers.

But I wouldn't invest until the market starts to level... Its been going down for a week and a half and the Years Earnings are down the drain! But that could also mean the bulls are about to come and drive it back up! IMO wait a while!

** I don't own that site.

 

This is actually the best time to invest. Invest when markets are weaker and prices are down. Buy low, sell high.

That being said, to the original poster. I would suggest you start off by investing in a mutual fund. It is much safer and managed by an expert in the industry. That is where I started and haven't looked back. Later on in my investment days I got into the stock market after years of investing in mutual funds.

If you don't wanna do that and want to jump right into the stock market, then look at companies you know. For instance, are you a fan of Nike shoes? Or are you a computer guru looking to invest in a computer company? Or what about jeans? Either way, start small and you'll learn as time goes on.

 

Also there are online websites which allow you to trade as if you're trading for real money. Just google and you get lots of good sites.

This way you can learn without losing real money. Most of those sites provide data with a 15 min delay usually but that doesn't matter for learning.

read ups some books too like Benjamin Graham's The Intelligent Investor

if you have a local library read some magazine, weekly reports, and daily buisness section in news papers.

sign up w/ brokerage and use their screening tools to weed out waht you like.

 

My opinion is that markets will go lower from here, not much but still will go lower. Check the year to year chart analysis and u will see that the correction is logical especially after "January effect". Always the market need a correction before going higher I personally invest in index futures (in DJ,Nasdaq100+gold from time to time) i will re-enter when the spot price of Nasdaq100 will reach 1630-1640. Of course this is a personal opinion/investing strategy

 

i think u firstly search from internet

 

Just stay away from Day trading, the risk is high here!

 

There is a saying in stock markets, the best time to buy is when everybody is selling and the best time to sell is when everyone is buying. Buy low and sell high, simple and straight logic for stock markets.

 

If you honestly want to be an investor, and not just a trader, read this book:

Buffettology.

 

and buy security analysis, intelligent investor and the understanding of financial statements by graham.

have fun reading them, i didn't enjoy much but it helped.

 

The buffett way is a pretty good book too.

Notice a trend

 

Hmm i must go to a library

And yes i think buying when evrybody is selling is good that's why i came up with the ideea watching the news of the fall

 

Is that when they had a zero discount rate policy?
