What are the pros and cons of of investing in stock?

all the pros & cons has been stated. but remember, nothing comes with no risk. rather than comparing them, it is better for you to invest in what you know the best (mutual funds, real estate, or building own business) and continuously looks for ways to reduce risk. to me, that matter most.

Pros: Good "common stocks" purchased at good prices tend to appreciate in value over time.
Cons: Risk.

Investing balances these pros and cons such that the pros hopefully outweigh the cons and you make money.

pro - gains
con - losses

One big con is that you really have to watch them so you know when to buy and sell. So if youre a watcher go for it.


danl747
Pro: Potential high rate of return on your money.
Con: Higher risk than many other investments. You could lose all of your money.


skahhh
pros reward
cons risk

In order to invest wisely, you need to do your homework. You need to learn how to judge the market, and even then you could be wrong.

It is a little more informed than buying a megabucks ticket unless you do your homework!

If you don't like to study or communicate, keep your money in a bank account.

Pros, make money when a stock appreciates, ability to liquidate your position quickly in an efficient market, more visiblle reporting requirements, government rules to stop manipulation, owning a part of a business, limited losses (the amount you put in), holdings are SIPC insured, etc, etc.

Cons, volatility, need to monitor investments, transaction costs.

Overall, stocks (or at least mutual funds that invest in stocks) should be a part of your savings plan.


Mr. Prefect
The pro side is making lots of money, as opposed to the con, losing lots of money.
