This all depends on your investment goals. Is the investment for retirement? Education? A home downpayment?
Are you making this contribution in pre-tax or post-tax dollars?
If you are looking to make the maximum return, I would invest in real estate or banking. Both are down right now, but over the next several years will make an extraordinary comeback with excellent returns.
Check out Bank of America or Wells Fargo. Check out Visa International for any price under $75/share.
Investigate SFI, a REIT that is down with a phenomenal dividend rate of return. Additionally take a look at CODI, a diversified investment holding company.
Just some thoughts to give you direction.... |

Congratulations on opening a ShareBuilder account. It offers an excellent way to invest at a small cost. It is a rare investor who can beat the indices, say the S&P 500. Even most mutual funds do not beat their relative indices. Investing, if done properly, is hard work. Commit yourself to it and you will have success.
Try to change your thinking about stocks. Instead of saying I will buy stocks, think: I am buying a company. That in essence, is what you are actually doing. Look around for companies in your town. Who is growing? I remember when Home Depot first started. I visited the early stores and was impressed. It was a total shift for homeowner, big box stores. My invest in Home Depot paid off nicely over the years.
The best way to invest in indices is thru Exchange Traded Funds or ETF. They act like mutual funds but trade like stocks and their expenses are extremely low. Consider putting half of your money each month into the S&P500. The leader in ETF's is IShares. Also, put 10-15% into an international ETF. The remaining 35-40% could be invested in stocks but again, do your homework. If you are young, meaning under 35 or so, ignore bonds, CD's, etc and invest only in stocks whether directly or thru ETF's.
You may want to try Yahoo's stock screener in the Investing section. Look for stocks which have share prices between $10 and $50 or so, have good, regular earnings, relatively low PE ratios and lower risk ratings. After you identify, say twenty stocks, go and read everything about the company you can. Evaluate what management says about the company's future. Think deeply about the company's products and future.
After you have invested this way for a year, evaluate your performance. Do you beat the returns of the S&P500? If not , sharpen your skills or decide to let an index do the work for you.
Best of luck. Just committing to an investment plan is a huge start! |

Hello,
I also had a similair problem as you have.
I had a good amount of money, and wanted it to grow.
So I looked around on the internet to find something that is:
1) giving me great returns towards a relatively small risk
2) Professional people who know what they where doing with my money.
I'm glad to say I finally found a moneymanager who is capable of giving me good returns and give me a great support.
On this blog you can follow up all the results that he is making:
http://my-robottrader.blogspot.com/
My money is working for me, in three months time I already have a ROI of 84%.
So you don't hear me complaining!
Annyway if you would like to get in touch with my moneymanager to have some more information feel free to contact me you can send an email to me at derrekmay at gmail.com.
Then I'll give you the email adress of my moneymanager
Hope this has helped you! |

Invest the money in yourself first, go for investment education and equip yourself with investing knowledge first. Why not ? You are going to lose it anyway. |

Your first option, should be to open a retirement account. This is always a good investment, regardless
of who you are.
If you have fully funded your retirement account and would like other options, you should consider a DRIP Plan.
They are seldom recommended by brokers due to the low rate of commissions received. However, these
reinvestment plans can be very powerful long-term investments. Studies have shown that DRIP's are one of
the best strategies on Wall Street.
They are inexpensive and easy to start. New investors to the stock market should definitely consider a DRIP Plan.
Companies like Toyota, Royal Canadian Bank, Sony, Bank of America, General Electric and many other Blue Chip
Stocks can be purchased through your DRIP Plan, with as little as 1 share in most cases.
These long-term plans are great for beginners as well as veterans. Check them out.
Best of Luck |
