With all the commotion on this board about buying Nike shoes vs buying Nike stock I forgot to mention that the reason I started buying Nike stock in the low 50's is because these guys did the numbers on it and said it was an $85 stock and here we are now.

Stop listening to morons on the coli that own nothing but their coli account telling you that you need thousands of dollars to make money in the market so you can stay broke like them.

Great investment. Nike isn't going anywhere and is still the dominant force in sports clothing and shoes. You still get a dividend for just leaving it alone and nike had better chance of splitting than losing money. Don't let anyone tell you that one share isn't anything. It's your money working for you.

Just buy and hold. That's all anyone can do. Don't try to time the market, it'll never work. Time in the market > timing the market.

Also FXAIX looks good :tu:. Nice low expense ratio, solid yield... You'll do well there. Just hold that shyt forever or keep buying on fixed intervals.

:jbhmm:best stocks to get into for a newbie, I dumped a lil bit of money into the crypto hyped and loss a lot

There is no "best stock"

There's growth stocks - Stocks that will raise in value with little or no dividend. Usually newer companies that are still growing or haven't hit their ceiling.

And there's dividend stocks - Stocks that will raise in value slowly or stay relatively stable and pay a dividend.

The closest thing to a best stock would probably be buying the Dow Jones (DIA) since it's a reflection of the economy and pays a dividend.

Other than that, buy the newsletter.

1. Check the original post in this thread.

2. I use Yahoo Finances IPO Calendar

3. You can't purchase stock in a company before it goes public. That's what an IPO is. IPO is short for Initial Public Offering. When a company is private they're only funded by Venture Capitalist and they own percentages because shares haven't been created or valued yet.

To add on to #3.....what you think about shares post? They got that 100 fund where they allow you to invest with $2500 even if you're not accredited. I guess thats a way for a regular person to invest in private companies?
