matadorjr | My stimulus check will only be $300. Where should I put it? |
Although $300 isn't much in the stock market, but since the economy is down, some stocks are pretty cheap. I'm thinking of opening an account with Sharebuilder since there is no minimum balance and only $4 per trade. I'm also a newbee when it comes to investing in stocks. I've been reading to educate myself but there's too much information and I'm not sure who to go with. NHPR stock is at .50 and its target is $3.00. Should I put it there?

And don't say "Buy Gas" buying gas won't go to the US economy, it will go Venezuela or Middle Eastern ******* |

Check out other options. If you have a job I would consider putting it in a Roth IRA. That way it will be tax free when you take it out at retirement. You are also able to take out the amount you put in (but not the interest) without penalty. Paying for a house, education, or if you become disabled are other ways to take out some or all of the money penalty free.
Look into other stock and mutual fund brokers like fidelity and vanguard and many others. Request info from their website. That will help you decide where to put your money. Sharebuilder is only $4 to buy stock, but it is almost $10 to sell it. This is for each stock each time you buy or sell.
Consider investing in a DRIP program. This is where you buy company stock directly through the company or through their holding company. There are different companies available with different minimum buys and fees.
A place to look at for a DRIP is computershare.com. This is one of my first investments, and it has been great. I reccomend finding stocks that have no buying fee because then you could buy more stock without paying a fee. So you could little bits of stock without paying extra. You will most likely have a fee for selling the stock. Be sure to read the prospectus.
Dividend reinvestment, without a fee, is a great idea. Instead of the dividends (extra money) being paid to you, it is reinvested to buy more stock. This helps your account grow even faster.
Some companies with no purchase fee available at computershare are Lockheed Martin (what I have- minimum $250 investment), Xerox (min $10), Exxon (min $250- I also have this stock), or you could get Wal-Mart (min $250), but Wal-Mart has a lot of fees so it would usually be better to buy from sharebuilder or another company.
Good luck! |

Just make sure that you understand that with stocks there is some risk. That's how they can give you a higher return on investment. There is no guarantee that it will hit its target.
As long as you realize that, "BEST OF LUCK." |

Instead of individual stocks, find a mutual fund. And consider it "on sale" because when market is down it's a good time to buy. Research the different funds available and pick one you like based on all the companies in it and how it has performed previously. Historically, over a 20 year period,stocks earn about 12%. And that's factoring in the ups and downs. |

If you are new to the stock market, stay away, you will get eaten alive. I'm not saying stay away completely, but make sure you do your research before hand and fully understand the market mechanisms.
In reality, its pretty tough to lose your entire investment in the stock market, but its very easy to 10% in one go. To avoid this, invest long term.
If you can't find the sucker in a deal, then your probably the sucker, simple as that.
Best of luck! |

Save it or spend it. No cheap stock is worth the downside risk of losing it all. |
