Question

How can I invest in company thru stock mrket?

Answer 1

I recommend an online brokerage firm that has good beginner qualitys {like tutorials or an easy to understand set up}, i use zecco, better then schwab, etrade, etc. they are the only ones with free stock trades, no minumums..all the others will charge you fees for trading, but compare and see for yourself. Good luck and happy investing!

First of all, you will need to find out if the company you are interested in is listed on any of the stock exchanges.  You can lookup a company here: http://finance.yahoo.com/lookup/.  However, I highly recommend that you perform the appropriate research before selecting a stock to invest in.  You can learn a lot from books or online tutorials.  One of my favorite websites is Investopedia ( http://www.investopedia.com/ ).

In order to invest in a company through the stock market, you can either purchase the stock directly through the company or through a stock broker.  However, you may only buy directly from a company if they offer dividend reinvestment (DRIPs).  Not all companies have this so I would recommend investing through a stock broker.

There are two types of stock brokers: full-service and discount.  I prefer online discount brokers because they are a lot cheaper and I like to make my own decisions.  To get started with investing in the stock market, simply open an account at an online discount broker.  I currently use Firstrade ( http://www.firstrade.com ).  They are cheaper than big name brokers such as Etrade, Ameritrade, Scottrade, and Schwab.  Their easy to use website also makes them very beginner friendly.  I would definitely recommend that you check them out.  I would not recommend Zecco though because their website is very hard to use and not for beginners.  In addition, they require you to deposit $2,500 before you can receive 10 free trades per month.  On the other hand, for Firstrade, there is no account minimum, so you can start investing with as little as you want.  You don't have to worry about risking a lot of money.

Answer 3

That's how you do it. Obviously the company has to be listed on an exchange.

Answer 4

If the company is public you can buy stocks. Buying stocks is investing your money in the company hoping to make a profit.

Answer 5

First find out if the company is public, that is if it sell shares of itself thru the stock market. It could be on the NYSE, NASDAQ, or some other exchange, if it is public, open a brokerage account and buy as many shares as you want, if it isn't, than you can not buy any shares thru the stock market.
