0:47 Ten most dangerous things people say about stocks: 0:52 #1 It's gone down this much already -- it can't go any lower 1:32 #2 It's gone up this high, it can't go any higher 1:55 #3 Eventually all stocks come back / recover 2:13 #4 It's only $3, how much can I lose? 2:48 #5 It's always darkest before dawn 3:53 #6 On the rebound to 10 I'll sell 4:50 #7 I don't have to worry with conservative stocks 5:10 #8 I lost money from not buying 5:45 #9 I missed that one, I'll catch the next one 6:08 #10 If stock goes up, I'm right. If it goes down, I'm wrong 6:40 Average movement of a stock is 50% between its high and low 7:30 I've never broken even on long-shots 8:00 Don't buy an exciting new stock right away.

I am new to investing, I’m 30 and have been working in customer service/ retail over the last 14 years and haven’t gotten anywhere in life, this video has been a big eye opener as I have been learning about investing over the last 2 months. I am tired of feeling like I’ve been getting nowhere when I’m a very intelligent and hard working individual.

@@annalisajoy9755 It might be wiser for a novice to start with Index investing, but it is not easy. My point is that when investing you need education first. I know there are success stories by keep on doing DCA as well. To invest in growth stocks it is another level, definitely you need to know what are you doing. Karen Marie Emma is a US registered CFA.

[@legilooks]

Be careful not to be lured into the market too soon just because the indexes are bouncing. if you recall, for months new highs while virtually every breakout failed in just 1-3 days. traders/investors that took comfort in that as a sign of market health got it wrong.

[@elizabethangus6628]

i rather be buying low in periods of instability than chasing when the market starts to rally, but above all, this current situation has really opened my eyes to the importance of a good financial coach.

[@momentumstocks3493]

I get what he is saying. If you pick fundamentally great stocks you should do ok. As long as you go with the trend. But there are better methods for shorter term trading. I do not mean using chart patterns, technical analysis etc.

I want to diversify my portfolio across different stocks and sectors to minimize risk. I’ve heard of people accruing over $550k during recessions, how do I achieve this?

[@AddilynTuffin]

Remember that investing in the stock market carries risks, and it’s important to do your own research and consult with a financial advisor before making any investment decisions.

[@kaylawood9053]

I was able to diversify my $550K portfolio across different markets with the help of an investment advisor, and in just a few months, I was able to generate over $950K in net profit from high dividend paying stocks, ETFs, and bonds.

[@judynewsom1902]

Please can you leave the info of your investment advisor here? I’m in dire need for one.

The two big problems now. 1) Companies are now run by their stock listing. They are a slave to the performance. It is all about the next qtr earnings. 2);Hedge Funds came in mid 90's and created a lot more volatility.

[@kingarthur7250]

Diversify....thats my advice. I invest in 4 companies funds at a time a mixture of accumulation and income. I aim for slow growth....but consistent growth. For the crashes I invest in grocery stores as my safe investments...people need food....its safe as u can get...but a slow earner. Diversify. Dony put to much money in one place....that way ones goes down your other one goes up.

Trade losses come in handy these days, if you’re not very careful and observant. Most trader never care to consult an expert until it’s too late. The reason expert handle is required is simply to accommodate and manage all your fears, losses and profits returns. Expert john darry will help any investor/trader achieve the later

I remember some of these very well I ran a stock picking service. So I would say buy ZM at $200 The replies. It is too high. It has one up already. I will wait for the dip Then the ones that did get in sold out when it went up 50% Or sold out when it dropped 15% So I would say ok it hit $300 you can sell. No one ever did.

[@markcrisp07]

Meant $600.

[@BenjaminMcLeod815]

With what I’ve learned over in the past decade in the stock market, given enough time, solid investments have the potential to double the initial principal amount, but many investors are instead attracted to the lure of high yields in short periods of time despite the possibility of unattractive losses before even getting out. So the onus is on newbies to beware
