Im a newb and dont know shite about stocks but I have a question.

Im looking at putting about a grand on one stock thats priced around $6 a share. There is talks this company will be bought by another in the next 6-12 months. Should I wait till then to buy or buy now?

Spill the beans!!!







For your question, if there is a suspected buyout, usually the earlier you get in the better as companies are usually bought out at a higher price per share.

You are correct about your not knowing shite. No offense. Do you have any diversified investments?

What's the company?

Generally when a company purchases another company the share price of the purchased company goes up. Therefore, you would want to own the shares before the announcement of the purchase is made.
