Is It Still Safe to Invest in Stocks?

October 9th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Business, Daily Life, Lifestyle, financing

With the stock market as a whole plummeting to dire straits, you would think it would be time to bail out before you lose all your assets, right? Wrong. That’s the problem facing the market right now: a self-perpetuating failure. People see the market plummet, so they’re taking out their money and causing it to plummet more. 

Taking your money out of the market isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but you could be missing out on some fantastic opportunities. The stock market isn’t going to be in the dumps forever, and even the best financial analysts are hesitant still to use the “R” word. Prices are dropping, and this may very well be the best time to buy. All that money had to go somewhere when people sold their stocks, which means somebody made off like a bandit. 

If you’re not sure where to begin investing, or maybe you’re already investing and want some help from financially experienced people, check out Inner8.com. It’s like MySpace for investors. You can read and vote on people’s stock picks and financial advice, and make high-rated analysts your friends in your Inner 8 circle of trusted advisors. 

The big investment firms and stock brokers are all going bankrupt, because they were greedy and made bad choices. The technology available now is better than it ever was for making smart forecasts about stock trades. Combine that with a community of investors, and you’ve got a formula for financial success. Inner8 is created by veterans of E*TRADE, who come with years of financial experience. Check it out if you think stocks could still be your avenue for successful investing!

JustTrade: A New Digg for Stock Trading Tips?

If you’ve been looking into ways to save or invest your money lately like I have, you might have taken a daunting look over at the stock market exchange. If you’re already familiar with trading stocks, you may already have been helped or hurt by OTC (over-the-counter) stock trading tips, or maybe a shady broker.

JUSTtrade is a neat site because you can rate individual tips and posters to the site, meaning that their future tips might be rated higher and be considered more trustworthy. Also, you can pick up some good advice on how to trade and what to trade.

A post on the homepage, for example, hasn’t been rated much yet, but sounds like a neat tip on buying gold low this morning and if the price holds, could see a huge rise later in the day for a nice profit. If I had the money to invest, I’d have gone through to the exchange mentioned and invested in gold and made a killing by this afternoon.

I don’t have the stock savvy or the finances to lose while learning right now, but maybe some of you who do own stocks could take a look at this site and gain some more insight into OTC trading, or maybe even offer some to others.
