I would open an account with sharebuilder, there are very cheap and you do not have to buy tons of stocks. They have good investment tools also. In my opinion, the most important thing is to be consistant and make sure you are putting something away every week or month. It becomes a good habit and the money starts to pile up.

It will significantly benefit you.  Stocks trading on the pinks have almost no legal obligations regarding disclosures.  There is material fraud in the pinks as a consequence people avoid them and so they are often mispriced.  If they are successful in their application, the price should eventually increase from greater market size and you will know more about the company.

Find out the tecnical intermediate  or short term range of the Market , then choose a particular company you want to invest in \n*find out its PE ratio( safe if below 8 in most cases)\n* its earning per share\n* its dependence on foreign markets (genrally if a company  uses indigineously produced goods and its main market is within its own nation it is more safe)\n*its book value in comparison to its market Quotation \n*and finally its networth and capital valuation

Your question is not clear any way I will try to tell you some thing.\n\nExample:\nIf you have purchased 200 share of face value of Rs.10/- paid @ Rs.596 per share on 1.1.2006 and if the share were splited to Rs.1/- paid on 1.6.2006, then your 200 shares will become 2000 shares on 1.6.2006 and the value of each share will become Rs.596/10= Rs.59.60 per share.  The date of purchase will remain same for all shares 1.1.2006 and not 1.6.2006. The date of actual purchase of 200 shares will apply for all 2000 shares.  O.K ????????

Okay, I don't know what all that was about...\nIf you mean buying shares of stocks, then you should open a "brokerage" account with someone like ScotTrade.\nEach share is a small piece of a company and the price is given in USD ($).\nYou buy pieces of the company and hope that the price will rise.  After some time, you can sell it into your account and keep the profit!  It is fun, too.

If not stocks and shares your other major opportunities are rentals and bonds.  I would discourage investing in bonds because they can not keep up with inflation.  So that leaves rental properties.  I know several people who have done very well with rentals, but it does require work and headaches.

Do you really want to buy shares of a stock, or do you want to invest in the stock market?\n\nDo you want to spend your time researching fundamentals of a company: earnings, balance sheets, products, competition, cash flows, etc., when this really doesn't tell you a lot about the direction of the stock price? \n\nDo you really want to take the advice of a broker, who is probably terribly biased, doesn't know any more than you do about the company, and doesn't have a clue where the stock price is going, but really just wants to earn a commission by making a sale, and whom is just a good salesman?\n\nOr maybe you want to investigate Technical Analysis to determine key turning points in stocks or the market. Get ready for a long learning curve. \n\nOr, you could try stock options, like me, and lose your whole IRA. And then come back and try Day Trading, and lose it all again. Then try Index Futures, and leverage it all away again. I finally got it right, but it took about eight years.\n\nMost people spend more time deciding the color of their new car than they do on deciding on a stock, a broker, a mutual fund, or other investment. If you don't put quite a bit of time into it, don't expect to make a decent return on your "investment."\n\nCheck out someone who rates mutual funds. There are a few good ones out there, and it's their job to know what's going on, what's moving and what isn't, and a whole team of people will be watching over your investment every day.\n\nCheck out Morningstar.com

property AND it's more relaible. (if something happens to it you're not at loss, you have insurance)\n\nstocks=== they can go down in value, or the corporation can fail: ie enron.\n\nmutual funds===as reliable as stocks, income is never certain, and the chance of loss is there.

Share prices means price at which a co's stock is quoting at..\n\nyes the media can influence share prices in the sense that it can break some news which is specific to that co or industry..as market players tend to notice that news they may accordingly buy or sell the co's stock..\n\nDemand and Supply beyond many other factors have a bearing on the share prices..other factors include..liquidity, sentiments, market rumors, etc..\n\nWhat happens when a share price falls is it gets cheaper to buy! ..also it loses its market-capitalization..\n\nthat was enough explanation..
