Rocket Investing: Stock Market Research Advice
The stock market is not a black hole. People come out of it
successful, business savvy and rich! Here are 5 things you must
remember to conquer the investing black hole:
1. Be resourceful. The key to investing is knowledge: know
anything and everything about the company and the factors
affecting its performance. There are 2 excellent resources for
your stock market investment:
a. The newspaper. Get the most-updated information on the
country or the region's economy. These largely influence the
health of the stock market. Aside from the economy, news on
politics, society and weather can affect your stock market
investment.
b. The Internet. From Stock Market 101 to
How-to-Be-the-next-Warren-Buffet (Forbes Magazine's 2nd richest
man in the world), everything is in the Internet. Thank God for
search engines: type a word and a host of information awaits!
Make sure to visit the website of the company you intend to
invest in, to get the official information on their corporate
set-up, financial health, historical stock performance.
2. Be analytical. Information on the Internet can be
overwhelming, but not all are accurate. Carefully scrutinize
everything. The devil is in the detail ... or the lack of it. If
you do not find credible information to support one claim, then
move on to the next site. One quick tip: use your bookmarks when
researching. Skim first through each link on the list
and
bookmark the ones that are useful, for later reading. Once you
have 3 or 4 bookmarked, start your detailed stock market
research.
3. Be strategic. You have the data, you know which ones to use,
now decide ... is this the right time to invest on this company?
Use your data to calculate your next move. The goal is always to
end up at the earning more than what you invested. At this
point, reading expert advice, or better yet, paying for one,
will definitely help.
4. Be patient. Hand-in-hand with being strategic is being
patient. If you do not need the money immediately, it is best to
let it hold for a longer time. Stock market investment gains
average 10-12% over a 10-year period. Net, if you hold on to
your stock for or about that long, chances are, you will realize
such level of gains.
5. Be on your toes. At the extreme end of patience is
complacency. A good investor is never one. Watch out for IPO's
that have a bullish outlook. Use digital tools (like SMS stock
alerts or Blackberry breaking news) to get news as they happen.
Do all the necessary moves before the bell rings!
Follow those 5 advices on stock market research and zoom your
way to a profitable future!
