| Investors And Investing Buying shares or stock in a company represents an investment of your money in a company. Hopefully this investment will pay dividends and provide capital gains. As a share holder you may vote at the company's annual general meeting and you ususally receive one vote per share. You can check on the value of your stock using the stock symbol in newspaper publications, as well as on online stock exchanges. The Stock Exchange is an organization that allows investors to buy and sell stock in a company. You can do this via a stock broker or do it yourself on various online trading websites. Bonds are a safer form of investing. When you invest money in a bond you are promised a rate of return for the length of the investment. An investment fund pools the monies of its investors and invests in combinations of stocks, bonds and other securities. This fund is managed by a fund manager who makes investment decisions on your behalf. Choosing what to invest in is a personal decision based on the amount of risk you are willing to assume,the length of time you choose to invest and how much money you plan to invest. There are volumes of information available to help educate investors. There are also services provided by banks, financial advisors and investment companies. Investors House is a great starting point for your foray into the world of investing. |
