How do I find stocks or funds that I can invest in and make an average of $20 a day?
I am new to buying stock. I want to find some stocks or funds so that my money will grow sort of fast. I don't have lots of money to play with. I'm starting with like $1000. I understand everything has a risk, but with $1000 is there some stocks or indexes you guys suggest I look at putting my money into? I don't really understand how indexes work. It looks like they invest your money into several different markets. Are there any indexes doing well that anyone can make me aware of? I saw one labeled "SPY" never heard of it before. I just want my money to start making money. It's not doing anything sitting in the bank.
                     
 




what?
unless you get a bunch of extra money, there is no way in heck that this is even close to reasonable.

a GOOD return would be 15% ($150) per year!
you're asking that a stock double AND THEN triple each year!


OK, if you want to earn a good return, consider buying a small or micro-cap ETF. This is just a fund that tracks an index and invests in small (or VERY small) companies. Historically, this will get you about a 13-15% return on average. These investments are risky, but offer a great return IN THE LONG RUN.

The best advice I can give you? Sit down with a financial planner or talk to an investment professional in person, and they'll help you match your goals with your risk appetite...and also help you become a bit more realistic about your expectations.

$20.00 a day on $1000 is over 400 a month and about $5000.00 a yesr. You are looking for 500% return on a stock??? get real, it almost impossible.

Try to get about 10% a year.

I would suggest learning a bit more about the stock market before you risk you $1000. I say risk, instead of invest, as your question shows your ignorance of the stock market and what a reasonable return is. Making $20 a day is unheard of.

Sorry, if this seems harsh, but it is better to research ahead of time than lose your money or invest it and only make a much smaller amount that you are not satisfied with.

20x365=7300

7300/1000*100=730% You are looking for a 730% return.

You're about 73 times higher than I shoot for.

With $1,000, $10 a month is a very very good return over time, not $20 a day.

You need to start your thinking about what you have and what you can earn, not only what you want.

SPY is a type of S&P 500 index. Sometimes called "Spiders" or "Spyders". The S&P 500 is an index of the 500 largest companies.

And has averaged 11% long term which is less than $10 a month for you.

And that means leaving the money in there for a long time and not spending it.

Sorry for the reality but it is what it is.

Good luck.

Well, for starters, you can forget about SPY, commonly called Spyders, it is a unit trust that you buy shares in like common stocks, but the trust owns blocks of the Standard & Poors 500 companies. This is one of the original exchange traded funds (DIA, commonly called Diamonds, that trust that owns blocks of Dow Jones Industrial Average companies is the other). These two are the cheap and easy equivalents of chocolate and vanilla ice cream.

Just for grins I did a search of companies with superlative earnings growth and that also have extraordinary profit margins. One company out of 120 fell through the double net of top numbers: HNR, Harvest Natural Resources.

If you tried to buy it May 1st at the low of the year (52-week running range) you might have snagged it at $8.88, if you dared. It had just fallen from $12.62 on April 16, so you might have felt crazy to do so. Still, it closed at $10.72 today, so it was a fair month's profit in anyone's book. Better still, if you had bought it on last June 15 at $9.80-90 something, you would have seen it shoot to $13.50 on June 18. Suppose last August 16 you bought this stock for some $10 a share, on November 8 it would have touched some $14 and a quarter. Would you have had the good sense to sell at the right moment to capture that peak spike?

I hope you see the problem. Past events may not be an exact indicator of future results, but you can bet that this company will be all over the map. So here is a company making bookoo bucks with a piddly Price/Earnings ratio of 6.5 to 7.3 depending on which way you choose to measure it, and there is so darned little certain about its stock price.

Good luck on your starry-eyed ambition. Yet, playing the peaks and valleys of an earnings winner like this might still give you some good action with minimal risk (making money, but when it stops making money, the risk to the stock price becomes super real).

Indices are too stable and unprofitable and $1000 is not enough cash to throw into a stock market.
