Why are you looking at Nokia? With the iphone craze I wouldn't be buying any mobile stock unless they're about to come out with something good and there's a lot of hype.

Stock market isnt easy money, even with a suggestion. You wait a day too long and you could lose all your gains. To really dabble in stocks, you've got to have money whose loss wont fuck your life.

Stay away from auto companies. That's all I can say with a fair amount of assurance

Have you even looked into the company at all? If so why would you go for it? Yes, buy low is generally a good idea but when the company over the past year is losing a huge amount of money it's generally a bad idea. You've got to say to yourself... okay... I need to look at what's going on in the cell phone business. Nokia is not doing well compared to Apple, Samsung, or Motorola. A couple years ago they were top game, but they've been losing the war. They have not been doing so well since about 2000ish :\

I am not a stockbroker, naturally, and I do not in any way recommend taking my advise but if I were you I'd invest in some offshore drilling companies especially if it looks like that law will be passed. Protip: ignore Noit's advice...

Seriously bro, the stock market isn't really a way to make a lot of money quick. I mean, it can be used for that, but that also raises the risk significantly. The stock market should be seen as a long term investment, and in cases like that generally blue chip companies are the way to go.

I don't really have any stocks, nor do I know that much about them. This is just some basic shit I've picked up through some classes at school. We had a little contest to see who could make the most money in 2 months spending 20,000 on stocks... Obviously, with the timeframe being 2 months you have to gamble (My penny stocks paid off), but really you've got to go with the bigger companies. I know I've got like, 8 shares in HP. My Grandpa bought me about $100 in Compaq when I was young just so I'd learn a bit about the stock market. The company got taken over or sold out or whatever, and now I've got shares in HPQ worth roughly $375. And I get about 64 cents in dividends like, 4 times a year. XD

i would stay away from Nokia. these markets really aren't moving upwards...since about 2007. the people who normally would be purchasing these phones simply don't have the money for luxuries anymore, so mobile phone sales have severely dropped. i would stay away from all companies that are directly affected by the average consumer, not to mention those that have competition like Apple. i had a short term long in nokia back in june, it popped after the iphone and made money, but i dont suggest ya invest in it as long term. something is gonna happen when their new smartphone comes out in a couple months but i'm not too sure yet cause the new iphone has been looking very good.

I have been too busy to be involved with the stock market recently but I would say look for companies that have recently gone done below what is fair to pay for them. Last year at around this time I started my venture into the stock market by investing $1,000. Now I have $1,482.02 from that $1,000.

According to my account:
I profited $180 by buying and reselling RIMM.
I profited $115 by buying and reselling DRYS.
I lost $228 by buying and reselling GOOG.
I profited $55 by buying and reselling MELI.
I profited $235 by buying and reselling TMA.

And currently I sitting on an unrealized capital gain of $124.76 from NLY.
