Fund picks and pans stocks

Posts Tagged ‘stocks’

I want to get into the stock market. I know about it but I know its a competitive field thats why I want to know as much as I can about it. I’m not trying to be a millionaire. I’m sure if it was possible, everyone would. I just want to know how I could make some extra bunks. How much could a person make on a stock? How much do stocks usually cost? Do you have to go through a stock broker? How much does the broker take off? Thanks in advance!

Hi i’m new to the stock market and I don’t know much about it other than the basics. I’ve done a lot of research and i’m ready to begin investing.

I want to start out slow by only using around -0. Is it reasonable to think I can double or triple my money in a month if I invest smartly? Are there any sites that give tips on certain stocks that may rise because of new products they are putting out? Thank you very much for any help you can give me.

After Washington Mutual has been closed for over a year, its stocks (WAMUQ) can still be traded in the stock market and its price has been shooting up to more than 3 times higher over the past 2 months. Why can a dead company’s stocks be alive? Why is it so active in the market now? And, should I hold them a bit longer for another price jump?

Okay, I keep reading that the best, safest way to invest is to buy Index funds. I have looked into these and most of these have minimums at least 2500, 10k, or even 100k. If I have 20k to invest and I want to have a diversified portfolio, how should I invest this 20k into the index funds?

I currently have an extra 1500 that i invest in individual stocks.

What is the difference between a mutual fund vs index fund?

Any input will be greatly thankful. Thanks and have a great day!

Hey, certainly not the right place to ask important financial questions but did need some quick clarification…

Listening to NPR today and one of the top performing investor’s overall recommendation was that basically, a basic index fund will, on average, out perform any Mutual fund. And, because Index funds have less fees associated with them, the investor really will make out far better in the long run. His advice was, of course, not to pull your money out of your investment account but to perhaps transfer it to an Index Fund.

Since this was really limited information, my question was really about how the mutual fund works. I’ve lost, say, 30k in the 3 different mutual funds I have now. Shouldn’t I just leave the money in (since it’s already a loss) and hope the value goes up in the next 10 years? Or, within the mutual fund are the stocks constantly trading so the stock my mutual fund holds now, will not be the same stock in it 10 years from now. If the later is the case, I can see why moving it to an index fund makes sense. But if investors usually keep the same core stocks, then isn’t transferring my money to an Index fund the same as pulling out of the market? Does this make sense?

Index funds cannot go to zero ? Am I right ? e.g. take the S&P 500 ETF index for SPY.

There are 500 stocks in SPY. Should one stock declares bankruptcy or gets de-listed, it is removed from the index fund SPY and a new stock will be added.

So I think even in a bearish market, the price value of SPY or any index funds including Dow Jones, Hengseng, Nekki, etc will never have a price value of zero.

Should any stock(s) in anyone of these index funds goes belly up, the stock(s) just gets removed or de-listed from the index and a new stock will be added.

Am I right ? Or am I missing anything ?

Even if we have the worst case scenario similar or more devastating than the 1929 market crash, the price of any Index Funds cannot go
to zero value.

Please comment and give me your insight.

Thanks in advance
