Ya you migh be to young for the stock market but there a good simulation website called http://stocksquest.coe.uga.edu/C001759/
Plus right now for an apple stock it costs about 200 dollars if you really interested talk to an adult about it.

I would talk it over with your parents first. Im 14, and I wouldn't buy Apple shares, they are MONDO expensive. Start with something smaller, in which you can buy more shares of. I dont know how much money you have, but i work and have like 5 grand......i invested in uranium and solar energy companies and made like 3 grand haha i was happy. So start smaller, and Apple right now is at a bad point. Its released its new ipods, and iphone, so the stock will go down. Wait for news of new ipods, then if you still want to invest in it, buy a few shares
Hope it helps!


whatthe!!!
You'll have to buy stock with a legal guardian. Talk to your parents about it. I wouldn't recommend buying apple right now though its roughly 200 a share for apple. I think you should start with some cheap investments so you can get your feet on the ground.

The easiest way to buy stock is with a online account, but you are too young to open one. Talk to your parents.

to buy or sell stocks/shares you must be 16 or over, sorry!

You're looking to probably drop a lot of money, pay a fair amount of commission, and take a lot of risk with your money. A savings account or CD would probably be a lot safer, until you have a regular income. If you really have a chunk of money, you might want to look into class C mutual funds, which have no charge up front (they build it into the fund itself).

Try looking up their stock price (Yahoo search AAPL), and remember, most places charge $9.95 (USD) per transactions.

Well, you have to open a brokerage account with scottrade or similar. You can't do so until you are 18.

Investing in any single stock is a bad idea. How would anyone know what it will do? How can you diversify and insulate yourself from risk?

Instead, invest in quality mutual funds with long-term proven track record. To get the best results, invest a set amount regularly and take advantage of dollar-cost-averaging.

your a lil young dont you think


Will the brain
u may want to get a good broker and talk to people u trust, if stocks go down and u invested in stocks that u didnt have any faith in U CAN LOSE A LOT OF MONEY

First, you need a brokerage account (which a parent or guardian will have to co-sign with you)

See below:
Opening a Brokerage Account
Whether you deal with your own broker, contact a discount broker, or purchase stock through one of the new online services, you will need to set up an account with your teen. The process is much like opening a bank account.

Until your teen is 18 or 21 (depending on your state of residence), any brokerage account you set up must be a custodial one. Though you'll conduct all transactions, you can set up the account using her social security number for tax purposes. (Remember, too, that legally she'll have access to this money the moment she turns legal age, so don't use the account to stash anything you don't want her to have when she's 18 or 21.)

When you make your stock purchase, ask the broker for how the company is listed and on which exchange (if you haven't already picked up that information in your research).

And if the commissions (the amount charged by the firm that buys or sells the stock for you) seem high compared to the size of the investment, chalk it up to “education.” If you're fortunate, the money will grow and the commissions will seem smaller as the account grows bigger.

i dun think you can :[ (haha, not tt sure, sorry)

LIKE WITH ALL THINGS LEGAL.. YOU HAVE TO BE 18...

ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS CALL A LOCAL BROKER AND ASK THEM ABOUT THE AGE...

BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER... ANYTHING LEGAL THAT YOU HAVE TO SIGN YOU HAVE TO BE OF AGE WHICH IS 18...
