Top 10 stocks

XOM
BKE

CPE
WFT

I can only think of 5 right now.

ICPT has been fun lately. Definitely wouldn't put in a long term portfolio but have been enjoying the swings with my "play" money.

T still has my attention.

ETFs are cheaper than trying to buy individual stocks and trying to stay diversified

ETFs trade throughout the trading day, like a stocks, while mutual funds trade only at the end of the day at the net asset value (NAV) price. Most ETFs track to a particular index and therefore have lower operating expenses than actively invested mutual funds. Thus, ETFs improve your rate of return on investments. In addition, ETFs have no investment minimums or sales loads, unlike traditional mutual funds, which have both. However, most indexed mutual funds will not have sales loads.

or cash to buy individual stocks.

And why this?

What are your top 10 stocks to invest in rite now?

Because of that?


I mean, what's enough cash?

Because, if you're investing and not gambling, you want to have as much of the market as possible, when you're ready to retire.. making smart, value buys in solid companies that project to grow and increase profits.

What's wrong with purchasing individual stocks along with maxing out IRA, contributing to 401k up to company match, and buying a mutual fund biweekly.. or ETF? I don't know why say that, just curious.

Are you serious clark? Are you some kind of crazy troll? If not, why on earth would anyone take any kind of advice from you after you've posted that you can barely live off of $150k.

usually charge a lot for this, but here you go.

U can't really rank stocks in general because stock are broken down into sectors. Energy, technology etc... If I had to guess u don't have the knowledge or cash to buy individual stocks. Stick to index funds and ETFs my friend.

Ur portfolio should look something like this.

I'm not good with money.... I guess thats why I always had to work to make more off it. I was never the housewife type to just make 40k and save 20k of it while sitting at home with no life jerking off to JC penny mags because I can't afford internet.

I usually invest my 401k in shell stock. I buy/sell dips and usually try and be in for 5% div....I've been doing this for 3 years and I have made 16% 21% 17% annually. U need a strategy

If I was 25 and making less than $65k I would put a bullet in my skull.

I'm 32 now. I've made 6 figures since I was 23 and all I have is 6k and a lot of bills....I have 6k in cash in my etrade acct. What kinda car can I get for that?

I'm just saying after I pay a $1400 house note and 2 $600 car notes I live check to check...... Only difference between me and a guy in a trailer in Livingston is the bank will give me more rope to hang myself with. Money just doesn't go far. I remember being 20yrs old and thinking people who make 70k should have all their shite together... Now I make twice that and I actually had more cash then.

My household income is 150k and I feel like I am lower middle class.

This is in reverse order from this guy's post history. I just dont understand why he would be posting about people not having enough money to invest, but he can't keep his life together with $150k/year.

And HSY has been very good to me.

I thought the same thing after reading his post in this thread.

He admits to only having 6k in his etrade account in another thread. Then comes here saying most people here don't have enough money to pick individual stocks.

My favorite part was this quote:

I'm sure your financial advice is very sought after, especially after reading your post history.

He's either trolling (which I don't think), or has a very highly distorted sense of self worth.
