  • Why are there stocks at all?
    Everyday in the news we hear about the stock exchange, stocks and money moving around the globe. Still, a lot of people don't have an idea why we have stock markets at all, because the topic is usually very dry. We made a short video about the basics of the stock exchanges. With robots. Robots are kewl!
    Short videos, explaining things. For example Evolution, the Universe, the Stock Market or controversial topics like Fracking. Because we love science.
    We would love to interact more with you, our viewers to figure out what topics you want to see. If you have a suggestion for future videos or feedback, drop us a line! :)

    The stock market is a complex system influenced by various factors, such as economic indicators, political events, and global trends. The relationship between policies and the stock market is intricate and multifaceted, often taking time for the full effects to be reflected in market trends. As a result, policies implemented in the past can have a "lagged effect" on the stock market, with their complete impact not becoming apparent until later.

    • @StacieBMui

    There has been considerable discussion regarding a October rally and the potential for certain stocks to experience substantial growth during this season. Unfortunately, I don't have specific information on which stocks might be involved. However, I recently sold my home in the Boca Grande area and are considering investing a lump sum in the stock market before any potential rebound. It is challenging to determine whether this is an opportune time to buy, as market conditions can be unpredictable.

    • @JerryLuca-nm9ru55
      @JerryLuca-nm9ru55 5 месяцев назад

      It took me five years to realize the futility of trying to predict market movements solely based on chart analysis. The unpredictability of the market made it clear that such predictions are unreliable. The absence of a mentor during that period resulted in five years of painful experiences. However, I eventually learned to align myself with the direction the market wanted to go and adopt a simpler, disciplined approach.

      +Onat Alıcı That is a problem though, many primary education K-12 or whatever first education system for your country, often doesn't provide a compass to the student, they don't excite interest in their students or create any focus for the student.
      Sometimes many data dump the student which can be overwhelming and the student tunes out, or they don't explain the overall picture to the student in applied manner which makes the student think it doesn't really apply to them and they tune out.

      The decision to invest is an acknowledgement that it comes with certain risks. Not all investments will do well and some may lose money. However, without risk, there would be no opportunity to potentially earn the higher returns that can help you grow your wealth.

    • @veramonique1724
      @veramonique1724 2 года назад

      Remember, diversification is an approach to help manage investment risk. It does not eliminate the risk of loss if security prices decline. Because investing can be complicated, consider working with a financial professional to help guide you on your wealth-building journey.

    This explanation is poor. Let me try to explain it to those who are confused - when a corporation goes public (i.e. gets listed on a stock exchange and it's owned partially by the public), they conduct an IPO (initial public offering). This is the only time that the corporation will obtain money from the shares, unless they buy them back and/or reissue them. Once investors buy these IPOs, they can they sell them again to the rest of the public on the stock exchange. This is the secondary market, and this is where normal people like us buy shares. The corporation does not actually benefit monetarily from these trades unless they own some of these shares.

      Usually the net assets of a company and the expectations for both it and the market. If a company is expected to do well, their stock price rises, even if their assets haven't increased. Because of this, any company that has publically held stock must release annual financial statements so accurate predictions can be made. This is to prevent another scandal like Enron (www.investopedia.com/updates/enron-scandal-summary/).
      So who determines these prices? Well the market. If buyers think a certain piece of stock is worth a set value, they will only buy it at that set value. So if most the market thinks a stock is worth $50, the stock well sell closer to $50 than say, $100, as few buyers would buy the stock at that price.

    It's pretty straightforward, just buy a good cross section of an economy and you should do well over the long term. The market will be high in 10 to 20 years, and significantly higher in 30. It's almost impossible for a company with no debt to go bankrupt. The U.S. is about 50% of the global marketplace, Pay yourself first. It is time in the market, not timing the market. Last year I invested 200 grand in the S&P 500/ an allocation fund (with the help of my advisor Jane Marie Kunak of course) and it returned 370k, but guess what? I put it back and reinvested.

    How does the stock market work? It's not hard don't over complicate it.. Having a good entry and exit strategy, alongside a credible Professional investment adviser will make you succeed in the stock market like I did mine…. made me my first million to my portfolio from great company stocks along side Mrs Nancy Jane Gluck ...been trading this year with my head high...she's quite known in the states

      most people have problem earning in trading because they depend mainly on luck and little basic knowledge..The average investor makes about 70% loss, I'm very risk averse, which is why I invest with an expert
