Basic Investing Terminology | Understanding Stock Market Jargon

Learn basic investing terminology and understand the fundamental concepts of investing in company stock. The basic methodology - Stock Selection Guide® (SSG®) used by BetterInvesting™ members for over 70 years is introduced.
Our easy-to-follow methodology has been and continues to be proven successful for seven decades.
It starts with these core principles:
1.) Invest a set amount of money regularly.
Do so regardless of the swings in the market. This will help you maintain a lower and more favorable average cost per share of stock.
2.) Reinvest all earnings.
By reinvesting all your dividends and profits from the sale of stock, you'll fully leverage the power of compounding.
3.) Buy stock in high-quality growth companies.
Search for growth companies that increase earnings consistently over time.
4.) Diversify your portfolio.
Spreading your stock investments over a number of different companies of differing sizes and industries will help reduce the risk of being in the stock market.
