Some people pick names, some do fundamental analysis, some buy short term, some buy long term, some like volatility, some don't….how do you do it? What charachter do you look for in your stocks…..cause we all know stocks go up eventually…
Hypotheitcal. If someone gave you 100 G's, which stock would you put it in right now in the economy, and why?
I am new to this market and to trading. It appears that with instantaneous news I am at a major disadvantage with regards to upswings that occur for moments at time and are gone until the next time that I don't get the news fast enough to work with and most of the market declines on a daily basis as I see it. I think I am better and have better odds of picking losers than I do winners. So if I want to make money, it looks like I need to sell short which is actually buying it because I have to allocate money to sell it short because I borrow shares for a price from another investor, right …and then buy when the stock takes enough of a dip that I can make the money back on the way up. Is there a time limit on selling short that you have before you have to buy the shares back or is that indefinite? So for instance I think the shares will go lower than a certain dip, can I wait til I think the stock is at is lowest dip?
do you use any programs, tools, traders, etc?
I have to do a school project where I invest $25,000 of fake money into 5 companies. I've picked which ones I want to invest in, however I don't exactly know how to "buy" them..Or what am I buying, stocks or shares? Is it possible to invest $5000 into each company? Helllllp!
