I'm a professional investor.  I highly recommend that you invest inside of a ROTH IRA.  Not only for the tax benefits, but as a young person, if you need the money for a house down payment, you can get money out of a Roth.  I would strongly consider avoiding stocks if you're a beginner.  You're competing with professionals who do this for a living and you may get lucky, but 99% of beginners *eventually* take themselves to the cleaners.  You probably don't have a ton of capital to begin with, so a diversified mutual fund makes the most long-term sense.\n\nI do recommend beginning to invest in college.  It's a great habit to form.  I did the same.  While my buddies were out buying much nicer cars and even boats with money they saved, I was socking money into a retirement account.  The difference an appreciating IRA makes in comparison with a depreciating vehicle is mind boggling.\n\nStart now.  Start simple and diversified with a mutual fund.  Invest inside of a Roth IRA.\n\nIf you really want to trade stocks, then be willing to lose 50% or more of what you're starting with.  Most people I know, do.\n\nGood luck, email me with any questions,\n\nJared

If you wish to invest in stocks, study FA (Fundamental Analysis) to determine the financial qualities of a company and TA (Technical Analysis) to determine investor sentiment about the company.  Investopedia.com has a wealth of information including a dictonary for terms and acronyms and tutorials to get started.  Do your own Due Diligence and invest only in companies you thoroughly understand.  Invest only money you can afford to lose, not rent and food money.  Never stop learning about the stock market and you may gain 10-20% monthly; or lose even more.  Good luck.  Bye the way, you can set up your stock portfolio and follow it under Yahoo Finance and even create a dummy portfolio to "paper trade" stocks without using real money until you learn the ropes.  But the best lessons will come from using real money.  Always analyze good and bad trades to learn even more.  Best of luck.

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

Let me look into my crystal ball. Nope, can't find it.\n\nThere are tons of questions you should be asking before this one. How can we help you if we don't know your background info, where you are in the investing process, and whether you've asked critical questions. This question is not critical.\n\nI don't wish to play the guessing game, so I'll skip "critical" to pertinent. "Should you be invested in 'any' stocks at this time?"\n\nWhat is the current market climate? Horrible. Unstable. Risky. Perched on the edge of a void. The markets are down for the year, and still below the peak set in Jan 2000. That is a huge Double Top formation, and we've only just peeled off 900 pts in the Dow. This is called a Downtrend. Unless you think this is a market Bottom, you don't buy stocks or hold stocks in Downtrends. \n\n"Buy and Hold" is a great strategy for brokers and fund managers, but it doesn't hold water if you have to consider when you buy. If you bought prior to the 2000 top, you would still be waiting for a profit after six years, and content to wait another six if you are truly a "Buy and Hold" investor. My idea of investing is earning money, not "waiting" to earn money for ten years or even 25 years if history is any guide. \n\nIf, and when you finally decide to buy, you really should try to diversify. The best way to do that is to buy the ETF's either on the Indexes like the Dow or S&P or Nasdaq (DIA, SPY, QQQQ), or the sector ETF's, like for the internet companies if you like Yahoo, and diversify across them all, or across the whole market.\n\nGood luck.

Whatever you can afford.  The best way to get started is to figure out how much extra money that you have at the end of the month.  Make sure that it is money that you plan on investing for the long term.  You don't have to invest a big lump sum.  \n\nThe best strategy for a beginner is to systematically, dollar cost average into a low cost mutual fund.  Find yourself a good no load, index or growth fund and set up an account to automatically take a fixed amount from your bank account every month.  When the market is low, you are buying more shares and when the market is high, you are buying less shares.  You will find that you won't miss the money and in a short period of time you will discover the power of dollar cost averaging combined with the compounding of money.  Good luck!!

If you have to ask that question in this public forum, I doubt that you are positioned to risk your money in any stock today. Stock market prices are driven by Public Perception and not necessarily by the value or the income of the company. Take a look at Exxon Mobil (XOM) for the last 6 months while oil and gasoline prices were going up. XOM is down 5%, while the Dow Jones Industrial is up 7.5%. Investors who put down their money without doing their homework are easily fleeced by brokers, some who hang around chat rooms hoping to get young investors into their areas of service. Remember one thing if nothing else: stock trading is a net zero business; it produces one loser for each winner, and the loser is usually the little guy who buys (through a broker) what the big guy doesn't want. Study how the market works, find newsletters that have a good history of recommending stocks, invest your money in a step after step manner, maybe 20% each month for 5 months, and be ready to sell even if at a small loss if the value of your selected stock decreases by more than 10-20%. You will have to set your own loss limits. Good luck, but don't rush.

I started small, you might want to think about penny stocks, you can buy tons of shares, for hardly any money, but it is very risky. Make sure you have a comfortable amount saved first, then work on investing.

Stocks don't always make money, that is the risk you take when you buy them.  You just hope you pick enough winners to make up for the losers in the long run.\n\nStocks don't have any memory, either...and neither should you.  What you paid for a stock last year has nothing to do with what is it worth today.  You need to forget about all that, and decide whether you think the stock will go up or not.  If not, sell it, and put your money in a better place.  It hurts, but if you can't do this, you don't belong in the stock market.

I'm usually a great advocate of buying stocks, but you shouldn't be buying stocks right now because they are too risky, considering you need all your money right now to support yourself.  You would be trying to gamble your way out of a bad situation.

Frankly, if you are asking people for favourite stocks, then I think it is time you take a step back and improve on your financial literacy and investment education before you attempt to invest in anything. \n\nWho in today's dynamic society can guarantee that starbucks will last forever or at least until you retire? Who in today's dynamic society can guarantee the survivorship of any companies and hence their stock for 50 years until you retire? Who in today's dynamic society can guarantee that the stock market will not crash when or just before you retire? \n\nListening to free, off the street advice is an expressway to disaster and there is never one "God-Given-Sure-Shot-Highway-To-Freedom" Stock. \n\nRemember, just buying stocks and holding on does not make you an investor and does not guarantee you a nest egg... your nest could break faster than you expect and will hardly last your lifetime if you do not have any investing knowledge.\n\nIf you want to just invest monthly and forget about it hoping that someday in the future you will have enough to retire on, then you probably want to look at some investment linked endowment plans with a financial planner instead. The stock markets is no place for amateurs with completely no knowledge.\n\nRead more good books and articles on investments to expand your vision and horizon before you decide to go deeper into the subject. For some of the best investment books that I have ever read, please visit http://www.bestoptiontradingbooks.com and for some of the must-read investment articles that I wrote personally, please visit http://www.mastersoequity.com/articles.htm\n\n\nHope these information helps and good luck on your journey to financial excellence.\n\n\n\nhttp://www.mastersoequity.com\n\n\n\n\n.

If there was such a company everyone would be in it now. \n\nThe "best Company" to invest in is the one you pick after long research and a good knowledge of stocks & the industry it's in (not to forget valuation & general market conditions). Of course you'd want it to fit in your "asset allocation" also.\n\nDon't take the specific advice you may find in this forum. Never (ever) take stock tips. LEARN LEARN LEARN & you'll do much better over the long term.\n\nGood luck!
