For the US Stock market..... according to an article I read on Fool.co.uk the other week, the latest stocks that legendary investor WARREN BUFFET has invested in are:
Anheuser-Busch (BUD)
+
WALMART (WMT)
If he's invested in them, they're usually a pretty solid long term bet.
Others I have on my own personal watch list (for when my g/f over in SC starts her new job and opens an account with Sharebuilder.com) are:
Toyota (TM) - +22.96% since added on December 16th
Union Pacific (UNP) - +24% since December 16th
and
Canandian Pacific (CP) - +36.14% since December 16th |

In all honesty, I'd recommend investing in mutual funds rather than any 1 particular stock. Investing in a stock is really gambling - nobody knows for sure which one will go up and which will go down (if they did, they'd already be valued differently!). However, mutual fund investing helps limit your risk to a larger set of investments and most will go up over time.
I personally like to invest in index funds (funds linked to the market indices like the S&P 500). They have the lowest cost, which means more of your money grows over time.
Good luck. |

something that has potential, if u wanna make a buck, invest in oil, or a common source that's is slowly depleting, the supply and demand for the item changes and hence the market gos up and down, so if u wanna invest into something LONG term invest in steel or some kind of electronics. learn some economics before going into the market it will help. ALSO try mutual funds, they have a lower risk of a bad deal, but i am a gambling man so i take my chances with market..IF U WANNA BE SAFE DO mutual funding, start a savings account, expand and explore the economy. +) |

Never invest in just 1 stock. The more diversified your stocks the less risk you take of suddenly getting wiped out by any one bad event. If you've got the cash the rule of thumb is 20+ stocks.
An earlier posted suggested mutual funds as an alternative, and I'd give that the ding as best answer if I were you. If you're new enough to investing to ask the question you may be better off with a mutual fund.
Because the question you should be asking is:
"What stock should I invest in and at what point should I sell it?"
If you're not going to monitor it and determine on a regular basis if its time to sell or not you're better off with a fund.
As for funds.. theres a boat load of them out there.. I like Dodge and Cox. |
