Hard to tell if there is a thread dedicated to the discussion of stocks.
The site's Google Search does a very limited job of bringing up results when putting in keyword, "Stocks."
So, if I am starting a thread that already exists, please alert me and I will gladly move this conversation to that existing thread.
=================================
I am no expert when it comes to investing. I have invested a lot of money in the market, and have done reasonably well.
Reason being, I don't take risks. I put my money into strong companies who pay dividends, and I am quite diverse with my choices -- not putting everything into one category of stock (tech, food, gas, etc.).
So, here I am asking for advice on a potential stock investment.
AMAZON
Now THERE is a stock. It's a strong stock. It should continue to grow as the company is just dominating everything.
However, the price per share is now over $725 per share (at the time of this post).
I have $8k I want to invest in Amazon. It won't buy me much, but it will get me into a company I am very fond of.
Is it worth purchasing when I am getting so little shares for the money?
Please use this thread, if one does not already exist, to talk about stocks, the market itself, and ask for advice.
