I have 50,000 and I want to invest the entire amount in stock. Which will give me the highest return?
1. 25,000 in common stock & 25,000 in preferred stock.
2. 50,000 in convertable bonds.
3. 50,000 in common stock
4. 50,000 in preferred stock.

Ron G. - I'm 30, and I'm looking for both growth and income.
You said stock, but you didn't specify whether it would be common or preferred - would there be a difference in return?

If you're going to do that, diversify heavily. Don't put more than 5,000 in any one stock. And don't put more into any sum of stocks than you can afford to lose. The only difference between the stock market and the dog track is how quickly you lose the money if you're unsuccessful.

Invest it in property instead. The economy is way too unstable right now!


The Chosen One
listen to ron g...also,I recommend an online brokerage firm that has good beginner qualitys {like tutorials or an easy to understand set up}, i use zecco, better then schwab, etrade, etc. they are the only ones with free stock trades, no minumums..all the others will charge you fees for trading, but compare and see for yourself. Good luck and happy investing!

How old are you and what is your ultimate objective? If this is a test then stocks 'could' give the higher return but class 'A' bonds will guarantee the return. The ultimate test is what you are investing for. Growth or income.

Common stock and preferred stock are both good or bad, depending on how the company does. If you're looking for growth then I recommend the energy sector, if you're looking for income then I recommend dividend-yielding bank stocks.
