Question

What are some good investing ideas?

Answer 1

If you're trading stocks, then buy low, sell high. Look for value picks over short-term gains. Pick stocks that have stood the test of time and proven their mettle in volatile conditions.

Of course, invest regularly. Nothing beats the compounded value of a corpus that grows over time -- months and years.

Answer 2

1. Learn about 401k’s in general and why you should invest.

2. Learn about the importance of Compound Interest and how it can make you money.

3. Learn about diversification and the keys to being sucessful in all market conditions.

4. Learn about how to make a retirement plan for yourself and family, and how to determine what your risk tolerance is and what approach you will need to take in investing. Determine how much money you will need for retirement.

5. Learn the difference between retirement savings and benefit plans and the different investment types available to different types of workers (government, private companies, indiviuals not being offered a 401k by their employer, etc.)

6. Learn about the different types of investments you can buy (stocks, bonds, cash, real estate, etc.).

7. Your company doesn’t offer a 401k, no problem. Expanding on lesson 5, detail about plans available to those without a company sponsored 401k plan.

8. Getting down to the details. This lesson talk about how my 401k plan is setup and general rules that can be used to setup your plan (deciding your asset mix).

Answer 3

Value investing all the way.

Profits don't take much effort if you add a little every day.

Answer 4

Personally, if you have $5k to $15k or even more to play with,

I'd seriously look at trading Stock Options.

I know, everyone says it's risky and they are certainly right!!

However, if you stick to some basic stocks, like steel, apple, pot ash, and some others and learn the trend patterns that they take you can do pretty good i think..

I made $9k in 2 weeks trading options ---

However... when you try something different like i did with Mastercard just recently i'm sitting down about $4k as of today.. but i just hold on to the stock and wait for it to go backup in the next week and try and get out ahead, or small loss and move onto the next stock.

if you want to invest for the long hall and are not a risk taker then stick with what everyone else mentioned..

I myself see trading options will be a nice suplemental income source.

Answer 6

Nicely nebulous.

Here is a plain Jane approach that covers a lot of bases, especially since you used that specific term "investing", which implies money put to work for the long-term.

Divide your money among these: NY (the biggest 100 companies, by market capitalization) on the New York Stock Exchange, IOO (the biggest 100, note the difference between the letter O and zero, publicly traded international companies), and PXN (the biggest 'players' in nanotechnology). Consider also such as DIA (the 30 Dow Jones Industrial averages companies) and SPY (the 500 Standard & Poors 500 companies) or maybe DVY (the Dow Jones select dividend paying companies). These are all exchange traded funds that buy and sell like common stock. The fund has a simple formula, buys a batch of stock in companies that fits the investment formula, then sells shares in the unit trust that holds them. For a mutual fund, the management fees are dirt cheap, yet managed by very good management firms. This gives you diversification with a capital D, and ferrets out literal thousands of companies that have neither earnings nor substantial prospects of earnings. You can very easily do worse.

Answer 7

Answer 8

Diversify and buy mutual funds if you are new.

Answer 9

You should invest in a small biotechnology company, a lot of scientists are doing their own R&D and have the knowledge of revolutionary products the problem is they don't have the money to launch them. Investing in a company like that could make give you a lot of money in 3-5 years.
