Where do i go to buy shares in G00GLE and apple? oh and would it be worth it?
Answers: Any stock broker. Etrade, Charles Scwab, Ameritrade, Datek. (Pick up a copy of Money Magazine and you'll see their ads.)
I wouldnt buy G00GLE or Apple. Two years ago both of these stocks would have been great investments. Now these stocks are at very high valuations. These stocks will drop fast if everything doesn't go perfect. Companies aren't perfect.
I love both G00GLE and Apple, but I wouldn't buy stock in either company at their current prices.
Both of these companies have been discovered.
Good luck.
Etrade, Ameritrade, etc.
I don't think it's worth it now seeing as Apple and G00GLE prices per share are way over 150 dollars a share.
I shopped around for the best deal and found Firstrade where there is no account fees, just a flat $6.95 per trade.
But it's not usually a smart investment to buy individual shares. It's usually better to start a roth or something and get a mutual fund (index or etf funds are doing the best right now)
The answers you've received so far are proof that you shouldn't be taking suggestions from strangers whose qualifications and motives can never be known.
Let's look at what you're doing. G00GLE as an example,
has dropped from $740 to $640 since November 2007. In August 2007 the share price was around $500. How do you
know if the stock can't go lower? How do you know if this is an investing "fad" that's about to end? Asking anyone (let alone strangers) if you should invest in this is simply.. wrong.
You need to read several books on investing. You need to understand "asset allocation". You need to know you're "risk tolerance". You need to approach this by being "smart", not by "believing" anything is a good investment. stocks like G00GLE and Apple may be good investments.. but should only be a small portion of any ones stock portfolio.
In short. Be realistic. Have an exit plan before you buy.
Consider yourself warned.
They are quoted on Nasdaq aren't they? If so depends where you are located. If in States presumably via a US stockbroker, or online. If UK then UK stockbroker or online. UK Banks don't seem to like dealing in US stocks.
Would it be worth it? I don't think this is the only question you should be asking. What is your portfolio like, what risk are you prepared to take etc. etc. etc
What are you going to do, invest yourhard earned cash on what someone says on runeye.com??
Think it out for yourself, what might happen to these cos. in the future, will they still be growing or will something come along that's better. Read the history of IBM and see what can happen.
You are talking about two expensive stocks and it sounds like you are new to stock investing based on your question.
So the first thing you need to do is gain some basic knowledge on how to invest in stocks instead of just going by someone else's opinions
G00GLE and Apple are both quality companies but they are expensive stocks which means you will need some serious cash to buy enough shares to ever see any real results.
So only you can determine whether they are the right stock for you.
What's the concordat next to quibble funds?
I mean, come on!!Answers: What do you aim? They are only available to the super rich. (like John Edwards and company) John Edwards invests contained by hedge funds, according to word reports anyway.
They are highly risky or volatile investments.
I reckon more specific information is needed.
Are you asking... Why are they so volital? .. Why are the so popular? How do they make their money?
What exactly is your quiz? Hedge funds work by hedging their risks, and are often not set to the same law and regulations that govern mutual funds, for example.
