Invest in learning about the stock market before you throw money in it blindly. It comes down to assessing risk. If someone gives you a hot stock tip and you know nothing about the company's financials, the balance sheet, cashflow statement, etc then don't invest in it! Okay, I will get off my soapbox.
Investing in the S&P 500 seems like a decent choice for a lot of people.
Berkshire Hathaway is a good bet too. Check the 3rd page of their annual report for a comparison of their stock growth with the S&P 500.

Investing blindly in the market is stupidity. I am talking about knowing what you are doing. For an expample taking stock related classes that teaches you on the technical issue and how to understand the fundementals of the company. Then after you will learn how to trade, trading is a very profitable business!
My first expirience in trading is: I started to trade blindly and lost 1000 dollard in less then a week. So after few of those kind of situations I decided to take classes about stock market and its technics and only after that my success in trading is good!
So is there any investors here? Does anyone else makes money online by active trading in the market? _________________ Place a free classified advertisement at: http://natser.net/classified/ |

i have invested my affiliate income in indian stock market and got appericiation of 30% in 7 months . investing is not much difficult these are rules to invest .
1. donot invest in one stock .. invest in well diversified portfolio of about 50 to 60 companies.
2. donot invest in penny stocks go for fundamentally strong stocks .
3. invest systematically that is invest 10% this month 10% next month ... invest at different time because you get average price when stocks are too high ..
4. never sell stocks and go for high dividend stocks ....

oh i live in india and trade in indian market called bombay stock exchange .... however rules i wrote are universal and applicable to worlwide ... Basically whole universe follow same uptreand or downtrend . means if england's FTSE goes up or indian BSE goes up dow jones will go up too ... and if dow jones falling FTSE or bse will fall too ..
Investing in emerging market like asians one may give better returns as P/E (20) (p/e =price to earning ration) of asian market is low compating to american one.( 40 i guess)..... but i would suggest you to invest in dowjones and nasdaq if you live in california because you need approvals of various autorities to invest in other country .. also its always risky to invest in other countries .... however you can invest in american mutual funds who r investing in emerging market's (Franklin is populor however all american banks are offering it ) ....
so if you have good understanding of movements of stocks then only invest otherwise invest via mutual funds ......
( but if you want to save money ,fund cost ,entry load etc . best way is buy shares of stocks which mutual fund hold in same ratio... check portfolio of some good mutual funds and invest only in those stocks where mutual funds and HNI's have invested ) .
hey stay away from Future and options i bet you will loose ..... go for delievery based demat holding and hold it for long term .... and always remember " you should invest only surplus (extra amound that you dont need) in stocks because stock market is very risky and you may have to wait years to reach your stock prices at same where you buy it .......
however here in india people's r just mad about construction and electric companies because of huge domestic demand see whose demand will be in future and bet on that ......
i am going to try day trading from 1st of june . i will let you know how much i earn ...
you need demat account ( where you hold shares) to invest in stock market .. call your bank for that ... also remember donot put over 25% of your earnings in stock market its really risky .. stock can multiply its price by hundred and may devide same ... it depends how effectively you study the stock ........ _________________ Tips to increase Affiliate earning |

Are you a regular trader or you trade once in a while? I currently invest in stock companies which are in Nasdaq, NYSE, and AMEX markets. It works pretty well and I don't have to wait for years untill the price returns to the price I bought.  _________________ Place a free classified advertisement at: http://natser.net/classified/ |

Cool I am an investor so fat too, but as soon as the US market will come to a stable up trend I will become an active trader. Also Forex is a nice for day trading! I have tried there and it works even better then the stock market in day trading! _________________ Place a free classified advertisement at: http://natser.net/classified/ |
