When the stock goes up from 3.80 to 3.90, that's the market value increasing. Your stock is worth more than when you bought it, but the company does not send you that 10 cents. Keep in mind that the market value can also decrease. The idea is to buy the stock at a lower price..say, the 3.80, and sell it when the price is significantly higher - like 7.50 (or whatever). It would be a good idea to call or go in and talk to your financial advisor that you purchased the stock from (or if you don't have someone like that, ask at your bank- they should have an investment department). Ask them all the questions you want- that's why they are there. And don't feel silly asking them- I work in the industry and a lot of people don't understand how it all works. |

dividends you get from the company when they are paid.
The other part is stock appreciation (up) or depreciation (down)
you make or lose money depending on the stock price compared to when you bought it when you sell (minus commision of course) |

As long as you don't close out your position, you have a paper gain or loss.
When you close out your position (e.g. selling shares your bought earlier), then you will have made a real profit or loss.
Let's make money!
Good luck

When you buy stock in a company you are essentially betting on the future of the company with your money. You buy a share of "Company A" and then you wait to see if the value of the share rises. Sometimes there is no steady rise or fall-- the value could stay stagnant, and sometimes it will skyrocket one week and plummet the next. If you can buy a share "Company A" for a good deal (usually at a pretty reasonable price) and that share gains value steadily over time, then you have probably invested wisely. If this is the case, you may choose to keep your share and wait to see if it will gain value or you may choose to sell your share and "collect". If your share of "Company A's" value declines, then it would be wise to just cut your losses. This is how you make money off stocks. |

It depends on what kind of return % you want and how quickly you want that return. Day Traders buy low and sell high and don't care about dividends. If you prefer a dividend company, then after you receive your $$$ from the dividend, you can buy more of that company. When you company dips down in price and you want to keep it, buy more and add to your "position".
