There are many areas of differences, as compared to American and European <a href="http://www.googlefinancenews.com/">stock markets</a>, need to be understood by prospective investors if they want to participate in China's strong bull run from 2005 after the bear was beaten off.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Color Codes of Price Movement</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Color codes for price movements are the direct opposite of the western stock markets. When price movement is positive as compared to the previous day's closing price, the instant price will be labeled in red color. Reversely, if the price moves down as compared to the previous day's closing, the instant price at the specific moment will be in green color.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Shanghai Stock Exchange.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">There are 2 boards -A and B shares. Shanghai A stocks are traded in Reminbi while Shanghai B are traded in U.S. Dollars. Due to China currency control policy, local Chinese are limited in holding and trading the U.S. Dollar priced Shanghai B shares. So the locals mainly traded in the A market while foreigners could only trade in the B market. As of January 2008, there are 840 A-share companies listed and 54 B-share counters. You can see that B market is relatively small in size as compared to A market.There are companies which are listed both in the A and B markets.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Shenzhen Stock Exchange.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">There are 2 boards -A and B shares. Shenzhen A shares are transacted in Reminbi and Shenzhen B are transacted in Hong Kong Dollars. The locals mainly trade in the A market due to foreign currency control while as foreign entities are restricted to the Hong Kong Dollar priced B shares. As of January 2008, there are 670 stocks listed on Shenzhen A market and only 55 on the B market. B market size is less than 10% of A market.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Hong Kong Stock Exchange - H shares (China companies or China related companies listed in Hong Kong) and Hong Kong companies' stocks are all traded in Hong Kong Dollars. Hong Kong's international exposure to western funding, more established financial and legal systems attracted many China companies' IPO on Hong Kong Stock Exchange, including many China government linked corporations such as PetroChina, Bank of China, and China Mobile, China Shenhua. One key private stock listed on HKSE, in late 2007, is Alibaba.com, an online trading platform for wholesalers by a western-educated Jack Ma.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Taiwan Stock Exchange's index has been gloomy for almost 10 years. The main negative factor is a political issue on China's conflict with Taiwan government and its resultance of one-way drainage of investment flow from Taiwan into China. With the upcoming Taiwan Presidential election in March 2008, a new Nationalist Government could decode the current economic mess on the island and revive the Taiwan stock market confidence. I would not advise any move into the Taiwan stocks until the election result on March 22nd.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">What Foreigners Could Buy?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Only Shanghai and Shenzhen B shares, Hong Kong and Taiwan markets are open to foreigners.

Real estate developer giant Wangke's A shares, on January 28th 2008, were traded at about 60% higher than its B shares on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. This means the relative significant investment value on B stock if investors are bullish on this company.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Some Chinese companies are both listed on the China A market and Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Prices Differentials between A and H shares of the same stock e.g, Jiangxi Copper's H shares with a dynamic PE of below 10 (Stock code 358) are only 30% of A shares (Stock code 600362) on the closing day of January 25, 2008. This illustrates the investment value of the H shares and the unbelievable huge gaps between A and H shares.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Buying and Selling</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Buying of shares in the A and B markets in Shanghai and Shenzhen markets can only be sold on the next trading day. And there is no "Shorting" allowance for the play. This is very different as compared to Hong Kong market and many western exchanges, where selling of shares could happen the next minute after you buy or shorting the stock.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Price Movement Limits</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Price Movements of Chinese stocks on A and B markets are limited to either 5% or 10% per trading day.

The underlying forces behind the sustaining strength would be the aggressive GDP growth of 10% average of the last 10 years, the global pressures for Chinese currency Reminbi appreciation, the new tax policy which came into effect from January 1st 2008, the successful restructuring of many large-size state-own enterprises, government's push for higher-end manufacturing to improve export values further and the major international sports and business events to be hosted by China in the nest few years such as Beijing Olympics 2008 and Shanghai World Expo 2010.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Kiing is a freelance writer and stock investor in U.S and Asian stock markets [http://www.101stockinvestments.com] He writes for 101StockInvestments.com [http://www.101stockinvestments.com] - a FREE resource center for novice or seasoned <a href="http://tradingstockchart.blogspot.com/">market investors.</a> This article could be distributed digitally as long as the website links remain intact.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Alternatively, you can also trade in several derivative products, which are basically financial instruments in the form of contracts, where the parties to the contract agree to exchange payments based on the value of a share at a future date.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Stock Market Trading Explained</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Many individuals and entities trade in the stock market.

Besides this, there are several strategies such as short-selling, which means you do not own the stock, but sell it nevertheless (by borrowing it from your broker at a fee) because you feel its price is going to drop - and when the price does drop, you buy it back. Plus, you can buy or sell stocks at a future date if you trade in the derivatives market. Then, you can also indulge in margin buying, which in simple terms means you borrow money to buy stocks, thereby exposing yourself to debt.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Stock Market Index</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The stock market index is a value, determined by the stock exchange authorities, that reflects the market's movement. This value is based on a handful of high-volume and reputed stocks - these are weighed and a number is given to them.

On the other side of the coin, how bad it feels when a stock takes a short-term stumble. Not fully knowing it will come back up or not.

Profit is the more desirable in the case of those who actually invest money because they want to extract even more financial benefits out of these particular investments. One popular way of giving a fertile employment to your money is making them circulate through stock <a href="http://www.googlefinancenews.com/">market trading</a>. Share owners can sell, hold their shares or even buy some more, if a series of rules (based either on well-established commonsense practices or on mere intuition) tell them the moment is just ripe for this or that strategy.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">As a matter of fact, strategy is one of the terms often heard of in stock market trading. But can anyone talk about a strategy that never failed in this area? This is a frequently raised question, since it is widely acknowledged that the stock market can be tricky. The stock market may easily lead to a downfall in stock market trading. This process takes place, obviously, to the disadvantage of the investor. However, stock market trading doesn't always end with a loss. Should loss be a certainty, people would no longer invest in the stock market.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Whether we are talking about time-honored stock market trading - taking place within the 'real' here and now, on the floors of stock exchange rooms - or about online stock market trading one of the regularly advised strategies is to stick to the trend. Online stock market trading has acquired, in its turn, a value over the past ten years so it can be taken into consideration also. Every stock market undergoes certain (longer) intervals of development manifest in the evolution of stock price. Terms like bull market or bear market are recurrent in stock market trading reflecting either the continuously rising stock prices or the reverse situation. Both online stock market trading as well as its longer-established relative go hand in hand with the progress of the national economy. One example at hand is provided by the extent of a bullish market during the 1990s, determined by the robust national economy of the USA - a genuine initiator of investment confidence. When the situation changed, at the beginning of the year 2000, the market turned bearish and stock prices began falling. In both situations, the advised approach was not to go against the tendency of the market.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Circumstances have long proven it is wise to be consistent with the general trend. Indeed, there is 'fashion' within stock market trading as well. And if you don't want to be outdated - being outmoded in stock market trading may have damaging consequences - you go with the flow. Nevertheless, when someone trustworthy or when some reliable conditions offer you a 'hot' suggestion, you may want to act in its direction. Nonetheless, caution, shrewdness and wisdom must be in your proximal reach. This means that you are not to instantly trust any 'good old pal' who, out of good-will, provides you with a tip. You must be able to make your own research targeting the tip you received or else request the services of a stockbroker.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The latter may turn out to be a wise stratagem. Stockbrokers, even in online stock market trading, are generally certified and skilled authorities whom you can easily employ for you to take full advantage of your capital investing. Notice however that their expertise is not available free of charge. There is nothing 'on the house' in stock market trading. Basically, brokers get involved in stock market trading for you, making use of their fuller comprehension of the stock market status quo so as to trigger gains that will proceed to your pocket or to some further investment. Should the commission basis on which the relationship between you and your broker is built (as a general rule) not be appropriate for you, there are other possibilities as well. In online stock market trading it is less costly to supervise your own deals.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Additionally, in online stock market trading, the useful, instructive material you may need is obtainable day-and-night. Moreover, in case you take particular content in looking into your private stocks, you cannot find a richer source of information than the Internet. Online stock market trading allows you to research websites designed by investment companies so the client and the virtual investor can be aware of previous operations. By accessing reports and descriptions offered even by the companies themselves, one may even notice the excellent performance of key institutions. Even more, online stock market trading sites offer the investor support in the shape of online stock market trading tools, services and instruments that allow the investor to place an order beforehand and, should the client not be present at the moment when the market reaches the condition opted for by him or her, enter the order automatically.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Certainly, both online stock market trading and its 'next of kin' have their own advantages. Whereas online stock market trading provides more accessible assistance for dealing with stocks, what was the initial, fundamental stock market <a href="http://tradingstockchart.blogspot.com/">trading </a>still goes on. Even if not following a time schedule as generous as that of online services, the traditional ways do not disappear. However, they both involve taking risks which is why prudence is the most often heard of strategy.

The SUPPLY is the number of shares offered for sale at anyone one moment. The DEMAND is the number of shares investors wish to buy at exactly that same time. The relationship between supply and demand plays an important role in our study of rolling<a href="http://www.googlefinancenews.com/"> stocks</a>. In fact, the channel that defines the support and resistance levels in our rollers is nothing more than an expression of the supply-demand relationship.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Supply and demand are always equal as they are the two sides of the same set of transactions, and discussions of "imbalances" are a muddled and indirect way of referring to price. However, in an unmeasurable qualitative sense, demand for an item (such as goods or services) refers to the market pressure from people trying to buy it. They will "bid" money for the item, while in return sellers offer the item for money. When the bid matches the offer, a transaction can easily occur (even automatically, as in a typical stock market). In reality, most shops and markets do not resemble the stock market, and there are significant costs and barriers to "shopping around" (comparison shopping) and this is one of the basics of <b><a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Stock tips">stock tips</a></b>.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">When demand exceeds supply, suppliers can raise the price, but when supply exceeds demand, suppliers will have to decrease the price in order to make sales. Consumers who can afford the higher prices may still buy, but others may forgo the purchase altogether, demand a better price, buy a similar item, or shop elsewhere. As the price rises, suppliers may also choose to increase production, or more suppliers may enter the business.<br />
The basic principle of buying low and selling high is how we derive profit when buying and selling <a href="http://tradingrisknews.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">stocks</a> or trading the futures, forex markets. Traders can offer a lower price and typically end up somewhere in the middle. Smart investors look for deals where they can buy what they are looking for at a lower price than others pay. We all typically try or desire to buy at "wholesale" prices. Most of you are thinking that I am wasting your time because you know this already and that's true; everyone applies this smart buying and selling action in every part of your trading history.</span></div><br />

It can sound overwhelming to most people and can prove to be tricky for those who are unaware of its working and common terms. Most people start on a wrong track and never learn sound investing lessons. Here are few tips that may help y ou in making money in the share market and save you a lot of sleepless nights.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">"Be fearful when everyone is greedy and be greedy when everyone is fearful", the World's best investor Warren Buffett lives by this principle. India's best investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwala is a follower of the same value investing philosophy practiced by Warren Buffett. This can serve as the most important <b>f<a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">ree share market tip</a></b>. This basic principle may prove beneficial to you in difficult or complex situations because all you have to remember is to buy shares when everyone in the market is selling due to fear and sell your shares when rest of the people are willing to buy yours at any cost. This is a very simple and basic rule that can help you get started in the share market.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Do you like a good bargain? Why not look for a good bargain in the share market? Value Investing is the best way to decide if share market is a good bargain. Value investing allows you to decide intrinsic or real value of the company and you should atleast look for 20% bargain. Unfortunately, this requires extensive research in share market and most part-time investors may not have a time and resources. Niveza has built a tool to automatically go through hundreds of numbers in quarterly and yearly financial statements like balance sheet, profit and loss (P&L), cashflow. Niveza assigns a score (vScore) based on <b>value investing</b> principles to all companies on NSE and BSE and provides a clear buy, sell, hold recommendation.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Do you know the performance of people you trust for share market tips? "Trust but Verify", a famous quote from the American president Ronald Regan. There are times when people you know will offer free or paid <b>share market tips</b>. It's never a good idea to trust on someone who has something to gain from it unless you or third part can verify success of their stock tips in the past. Niveza has created a social network dedicated for share market so successful portfolio managers or individual investors can share their verified portfolio and trades and others can see their portfolio and receive trade tips for free or a reasonable fee. Also, certain companies and financial experts often spread rumours to improve their own share value in the stock market. It is always better to trust only verified proven investors or do your own research rather than listening to hot share tips, intraday tips or penny stock tips.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">"Invest in a financially strong company with broken share price than a financially broken company with broken price". Buying a share is equivalent to buying certain percentage of ownership of a company and an investor should consider workings of a company before expecting huge profits in short time. Patience is one of the most important keys to grow in a share market because a company can never grow overnight. <b>Guru investors </b>like Rakesh Jhunjhunwala and Warren Buffett typically usually hold their shares for long periods and quite often for few years. Share market is not similar to a gambling but more of a task that involves strategies based on market research.</span></div><br />

What do these phrases and <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD3">abbreviations</span> mean?</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">These terms refer to stock markets or stock exchanges where a company is listed. A company must be listed on a stock exchange for its shares to be traded publicly. After a company's shares are released to the public in an Initial Public Offering (IPO), they are then available for the general public to be traded at the stock market. New York Stock Exchange is probably the biggest stock market in the US, while the FTSE holds that honor for Europe.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">When people ask: "how is the stock market doing? What are the latest developments?" they mean to ask how the stock market index is performing. Stock market indexes are the key indicators to the performance of any stock market.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">A stock market index, at its simplest, is the cumulative <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock</a> prices of the companies trading divided by the number of stocks traded to achieve an average indicator of stock market performance.<br />
Examples of popular US stock markets indexes are the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the NASDAQ composite and the S&P 500.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The Dow Jones lists the stocks of 30 companies, ranging from food giant McDonalds to bankers like Citigroup to entertainment firms like Disney.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The Nasdaq composite tracks 5000 companies from different sectors, but its mainly focused on the technology stocks.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The S&P 500 measures the stock of 500 of the largest public companies. They are categorized as the largest according to their market value. The S&P 500 is actually considered a pretty solid indicator of overall stock market performance since they cover companies from a broad base of sectors.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Indexes form the basis of the stock market. New investors are often advised to invest in these "blue-chip" stocks that are traded on either of the above three stock exchanges because they offer great stability and the chance of a regular dividend income over time.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Some of the most popular international stock market indexes include the FTSE (Britain), the Nikkei (Japan), the Hang Sang (Honk Kong), the DAX (German) and the CAC (France).</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Because stock market indexes give a great snapshot of the stock market, they are used as indicators to gauge stock market performance. Beginner investors that not only invest in <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD4">individual stock</span>, they can also invest <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD1">in mutual funds</span>, which are representative stocks of a certain stock market index. <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD2">Mutual funds</span> are marginally safer investments because they group together stocks that perform roughly the same way, and are professionally managed.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">You now have a better understanding of the <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock market</a>, new insight into the workings of stock market indexes and an informed take on issues facing beginner investors.

That means doing your market research and analysis and then carefully selecting and picking winners. This brief guide will give you a basic stock market tutorial so that you can familiarize yourself with some key concepts and be better informed before investing. Stocks are pieces of ownership in a company. Also called shares, they represent a part of the shareholder's interest in the company's profits and assets, but not necessarily liabilities. Some stocks earn you a regular payout, called a dividend – which is your reward for investing your money in that stock. You can also sell stocks at a higher price than the one you bought them for to make a profit. The stock market is like an auction house where shares are bought and sold and buyers and sellers determine a price by bidding on stocks. Stock prices fluctuate, sometimes wildly, during the day of trade, as buyers and sellers drive the stock's demand and supply. Companies don't trade stock directly; instead once they have offered the stock to the public in an Initial Public Offering, they then let buyers and sellers directly determine demand without interference. A stock exchange is a place that facilitates the trade of stock. When you want to <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD4">buy stock</span> in a company, you call a brokerage firm and open an account with them. Alternatively you can use an online broker. To set up an account with a brokerage, you need proof of identity – social security or drivers' license. Generally, greater risk in the stock market means a higher return, although this isn't always true. Stock tables appear in your daily newspaper and contain important information to help you monitor your stocks – you should read this everyday. Your <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD1">personal finances</span> should be in good shape and you should have some spare cash for <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock</a> investing as it can be a time-confusing, and for the novice, risky venture. You should read books, magazines and internet articles on stock market tutorials to better acquaint yourself with the market's dynamics. The three main stock indexes in the US are the <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD3">Dow Jones Industrial Average</span>, the NASDAQ, and the S&P 500. The main stock exchange in the US is the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), where most blue-chip stocks are listed. A company's stock cannot be traded at the exchange if it is not first listed on that exchange. The stock market is a place of much fervent daily activity. It's constantly in the news and very sensitive to changes in the world's economic and political climate. To make sense of it, you must give yourself at least 6 months to a year to fully understand its intricate workings. You can, however, begin to start investing small amounts and learn as you invest because after all, experience is the best teacher. This s<a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">tock market</a> tutorial should have given you an idea of the basics; now you can easily explore the concepts outlined here in more depth for greater understanding and ultimately higher returns. </span></div><br />

Why is it important? How can I <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD2">make money</span> learning stock market <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD1">investing tips</span> and tricks? As a beginner who’s interested in learning about the stock market you first need to familiarize yourself with stock market basics. These 8 stock market basics are the foundation for understanding how the stock market works, why it's important and how you, as an investor, can leverage it for profit. Read these tips to increase your knowledge of stock market basics. What is Stock? Simply put, 'stock' means to own a part of a company for personal profit and growth. Since you buy stock and therefore "invest" in a company, you also get to reap the benefits of earning a part of the company's profits. The Stock Market Defined The stock market is a market where stocks are traded. Just like the super market is a place to buy and sell groceries, a stock market is a place to <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD3">buy and sell stock</span>. What is a Stock Exchange? A stock market is also called a stock exchange. You may have heard of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the London Stock Exchange (LSE) or even the Honk Kong Stock Exchange (Hang Sang). So stock exchanges are international places where a company's stock may be traded. They can be physical buildings but they can also be electronic exchanges, such as the NASDAQ, which is an online stock exchange. What Types of Stocks are traded on the <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Stock</a> Exchange? There are basically two types of stock: common stock and preferred stock. Common stock, by definition is more common and it denotes variable dividend payouts and one vote per share to help determine a company's managerial decisions. Preferred stock denotes fixed payout (called dividends) over the length that stock is held and may not have the same voting rights. Common stock is generally considered riskier because dividend payouts are dependent on the company making a profit. If the company goes bankrupt, common stockholders are amongst the last to be paid, if at all. Why Do Stock Prices Go Up And Down? Stock market basics tell us that stock prices fluctuate because at any given time, some people might be selling large quantities of stock (driving demand and prices down) while others might be buying stock (driving demand and prices up). How to Pick Winning Stocks Generally if you pick a company who's doing well financially, is stable and has great growth potential, then your chances of picking a winning stock are high. You should also pick stocks in industries that are doing well, so for example if there's a boom in the alternative energy industry, you might pick stock in a company harnessing wind or solar power. What are Stock Tables? Once you have picked your stock portfolio (made up of many stocks in various companies), you should monitor them on a daily basis via stock tables. A stock table is a summary of how your stocks are performing on any given day and can be found in your local newspaper or on online financial sites. What Makes <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD4">Stock Investing</span> Risky? If the company does badly, you could lose your investment, but if the company does well, you can exponentially multiply your profit. The skill in stock investing lies in understanding which stocks are too risky and which are relatively less risky. There is no such thing as completely risk free because you cannot individually control what happens to a company or to the economy. You can only control your own investment decisions. Before investing, every beginner should read up on these stock market basics because an informed decision is a potentially money-making decision. With these basics you are now ready to delve further into the lucrative world of <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock markets</a>! </span></div><br />

Learning about the stock market means learning about: 1. How the <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD3">stock market</span> functions and what factors influence its movements 2. The stock market's past performance and history 3. <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD4">Money management</span> and personal financial management 4. How to select and run with winning companies How the Stock Market Functions Stock markets are fairly volatile places where prices fluctuate literally every second while business trade is happening. Many factors affect the demand and supply of stock and hence their prices. In general, the economic outlook, the individual company's stock prices, any pending news (good or bad) and announcements by the company, regulatory changes to the market, breakthroughs and product or technology innovations, and other factors like calamities, weather, etc are all stock market influencers. You should subscribe to a local newspaper or read an online service such as MarketWatch to find out about the factors influencing the stock markets globally as well as locally in your region of the world. Understand the Past Performance and History of Stock Markets Learning about the stock market implies learning about the historical data of the <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock market</a> so you can learn from the mistakes of others. You should brush up on the history of fundamentals such as accounting and finance terms, what has caused the stock market crashes of the past and what has led to stock market buoyancy. Understanding these factors will help reduce the learning curve ahead of you. Money Management Understanding the basics of money management and getting your personal finances in order are some of the crucial first steps to learning about the stock market. You should have a basic understanding about economic and finance terms such as savings, investment, stocks, bonds, <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD2">mutual funds</span>, balance sheets and more. How to Pick Winning Companies Most of all, stock market investing is about choosing to ride with the winners. You must have a good antenna for spotting winners in the market; companies that have a good business model, sound management practices, are in the news for their innovations and positive approaches to business, keep clear and transparent accounting records, are functioning in a stable or growing industry sector, have a respectable book value and Price to Earnings ratio (P/E ratio), etc. So as you can see, learning about the stock market is an essential strategy before you can begin investing in the stock market. But once you are over the initial learning hump, the lucrative world of <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock market</a> riches can be yours. </span></div><br />

That used to mean a physically supervised trading floor. But computers have made it possible to replicate the features of a physical exchange electronically. And they make the dissemination of prices and the job of applying rules to a <a href="http://www.googlefinancenews.com/" target="">market </a>easier.<br />
Most users of exchanges do not know or care which exchange they are using: they deal through brokers or dealers. Their concern is to deal with a reputable firm such as S. G. Warburg, Gold-man Sachs or Deutsche Bank, not a reputable exchange. Since big firms are now members of most exchanges, they can choose where to trade and where to resort to off-exchange deals—which is why there is so much dispute over market shares within Europe This fluidity creates much scope for new rivals to undercut established stock exchanges.<br />
<b>6.2 Europe, Meet Electronics</b></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br />
Consider the experience of the New York Stock Exchange, which has remained stalwartly loyal to its trading floor. It has been losing business steadily for two decades, even in its own listed stocks. The winners have included NASDAQ and cheaper regional exchanges. New York's trading has also migrated to electro¬nic trading systems, such as Jeffries & Co's Posit, Reuters's Instinct and Wunsch (a computer grandly renamed the Arizona Stock Exchange).<br />
Something similar may happen in Europe. OM, the Swedish options exchange, has an electronic trading system it calls Click. It recently renamed itself the London Securities and Derivatives Exchange. Its chief ex-ecutive, Lynton Jones, dreams of offering clients side-by-side on a screen a choice of cash products, options and futures, some of them customised to suit particular clients The Chicago futures exchanges, worried like all established exchanges about losing market share, have recently launched "flex" contracts that combine the vir-tues of homogeneous exchange-traded products with tailor-made over-the-counter ones.<br />
American electronic trading systems are trying to break into European markets with similarly imagina-tive products Instinet and Posit are already active, though they have had limited success so far. NASDAQ has an international arm in Europe. And there are homegrown systems, too. Tradepoint, a new electronic order-driver trading system for British equities, is about to open in London. Even bond-dealers could play a part. Their trade association, ISMA, is recognized British exchange for trading in Eurobonds; it has a computerized reporting system known as TRAX; most of its members use the international clearing-houses Euroclear and Cedel for trade settlement. It would not be hard for ISMA to widen its scope to include equities or futures and options. The association has recently announced a link with the Amsterdam Stock Exchange.<br />
Electronics poses a threat to established exchanges that they will never meet by trying to go it alone. A single European securities market (or derivatives market) need not look like an established stock exchange at all. It could be a network of the diverse trading and settlement systems that already exists, with the necessary computer terminals scattered across the EC. It will need to be regulated at the European level to provide uni-form reporting; an audit trail to allow deals to be retraced from seller to buyer; and a way of making sure that investors can reach the market makers offering the best prices. Existing national regulators would prefer to do all this through co-operation; but some financiers already talk of need for a European SEC. An analogy is European civil aviation's reluctant inching towards a European system of air-traffic control.<br />
Once a Europe-wide market with agreed regulation is in place, competition will window out the winners and losers among the member- bourses, on the basis of services and cost, or of the rival charms of the immedi-acy and size of quote-driven trading set against the keener prices of order-driven trading. Not a cosy prospect; but if the EC's existing exchanges do not submit to such a European framework, other artists will step in to deny them the adventure.<br />
<b>7. NEW ISSUES</b></span> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Up to now, we have talked about the function of securities <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">markets</a> as trading markets, where one inves-tor who wants to move out of a particular investment can easily sell to another investor who wishes to buy. We have not talked about another function of the securities markets, which is to raise new capital for corpora-tions–and for the federal government and state and local governments.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> When you buy shares of stock on one of the exchanges, you are not buying a "new issue". In the case of an old established company, the stock may have been issued decades ago, and the company has no direct in-terest in your trade today, except to register the change in ownership on its books. You have taken over the in-vestment from another investor, and you know that when you are ready to sell, another investor will buy it from you at some price.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> New issues are different. You have probably noticed the advertisements in the newspaper financial pages for new issues of stocks or bonds–large advertising which, because of the very tight restrictions on ad-vertising new issues, state virtually nothing except the name of the security, the quantity being offered, and the names of the firms which are "underwriting" the security or bringing it to market.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Sometimes there is only a single underwriter; more often, especially if the offering is a large one, many firms participate in the underwriting group. The underwriters plan and manage the offering. They negotiate with the offering company to arrive at a price arrangement which will be high enough to satisfy the company but low enough to bring in buyers. In the case of untested companies, the underwriters may work for a prear-ranged fee. In the case of established companies, the underwriters usually take on a risk function by actually buying the securities from the company at a certain price and reoffering them to the public at a slightly higher price; the difference, which is usually between 1% and 7%, is the underwriters' profit. Usually the underwrit-ers have very carefully sounded out the demand is disappointing–or if the general market takes a turn for the worse while the offering is under way–the underwriters may be left with securities that can't be sold at the scheduled offering price. In this case the underwriting "syndicate" is dissolved and the underwriters sell the securities for whatever they can get, occasionally at a substantial loss.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> The new issue process is critical for the economy. It's important that both old and new companies have the ability to raise additional capital to meet expanding business needs. For you, the individual investor, the area may be a dangerous one. If a privately owned company is "going public" for the fist time by offering securities in the public market, it is usually does so at a time when its earnings have been rising and everything looks particularly rosy. The offering also may come at a time when the general <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">market </a>is </span></div><br />

Complicated <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD1">stock trading strategies</span> that rely on a "boat load" of technical analysis indicators can make you slow, and being slow when trading stocks can be as dangerous as not knowing what to do in the first place. The worst thing that can happen to a beginner trader is to get information overload.

Efforts to set up a block-trading mechanism continue, although slowly. Meanwhile, MATIF, the French futures exchange, has become the continent's biggest. It is especially proud of its ecu-bond contract, which should grow in importance if and when monetary union looms.<br />
Frankfurt, the continent's biggest <a href="http://www.googlefinancenews.com/">stock-market</a>, has moved more ponderously, partly because Germany's federal system has kept regional stock exchange in being, and left much of the regulation of its markets at Land (state) level. Since January 1st 1993 all German exchanges (including the DTB) have been grouped un-der a firm called Deutsche Borse AG, chaired by Rolf Breuer, a member of Deutsche Bank's board. But there is still some way to go in centralizing German share-trading. German floor brokers continue to resist the in-roads made by the bank's screen-based IBIS trading system. A law to set up a federal securities regulator (and make insider-dealing illegal) still lies becalmed in Bonn.<br />
Other bourses are moving too. Milan is pushing forward with screen-based trading and speeding up its settlement. Spain and Belgium are reforming their <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock-markets</a> and launching new futures exchanges. Am-sterdam plans an especially determined attack on SEAQ. It is implementing a McKinsey report that recom-mended a screen-based system for wholesale deals, a special mechanism for big block trades and a bigger market-making role for brokers.<br />
Ironically, London now finds itself a laggard in some respects. Its share settlement remains prehistoric; the computerized project to modernize it has just been scrapped. The SEAQ trading system is falling apart; only recently has the exchange, belatedly, approves plans draw up by Arthur Andersen for a replacement, and there is plenty of skepticism in the City about its ability to deliver. Yet the exchange's claimed figures for its share of trading in continental equities suggest that London is holding up well against its competition.<br />
Are these figures correct? Not necessarily: deals done through an agent based in London often get counted as SEAQ business even when the counterpart is based elsewhere and the order has been executed through a continental bourse. In today's electronic age, with many firms members of most European ex-changes, the true location of a deal can be impossible to pin down. Continental bourses claim, anyway, to be winning back business lost to London.<br />
Financiers in London agree that the glory-days of SEAQ's international arm, when other European ex-changes were moribund, are gone. Dealing in London is now more often a complement to, rather than a substi-tute for, dealing at home. Big blocks of stock may be bought or sold through London, but broken apart or as-sembled through local bourses. Prices tend to be derived from the domestic exchanges; it is notable that trad-ing on SEAQ drops when they are closed. Baron van Ittersum, chairman of the Amsterdam exchange, calls this the "queen's birthday effect": trading in Dutch equities in London slows to a trickle on Dutch public holi-days.<br />
Such competition-through-diversity has encourage European exchanges to cut out the red tape that pro-tected their members from outside competition, to embrace electronics, and to adapt themselves to the wishes of investors and issuers. Yet the diversity may also have had a cost in lower liquidity. Investors, especially from outside Europe, are deterred if liquidity remains divided among different exchanges. Companies suffer too: they grumble about the costs of listing on several different markets.<br />
So the third response of Europe's bourses to their battle has been pan-European co-operative ventures that could anticipate a bigger European market. There are more wishful words here than deeds. Work on two joint EC projects to pool market information, Pipe and Euroquote, was abandoned, thanks mainly to hostility from Frankfurt and London. Eurolist, under which a company meeting the listing requirements for one <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock </a>exchange will be entitled to a listing on all, is going forward–but this is hardly a single market. As Paris's Mr Theodore puts it, "there is a compelling business case for the big European exchanges building the European-regulated market of to-morrow" Sir Andrew Hugh-Smith, chairman of the London ex¬change has also long ad-vocated one European market for profes¬sional investors<br />
One reason little has been done is that bourses have been coping with so many reforms at home. Many wanted to push these through before thinking about Europe. But there is also atavistic nationalism. London, for example, is unwilling to give up the leading role it has acquired in cross-border trading between institu-tions; and other exchanges are unwilling to accept that it keeps it. Mr. Theodore says there is no future for the European bourses if they are forced to row in a boat with one helmsman. Amsterdam's Baron van Ittersum also emphasises that a joint European market must not be one under London's control.<br />
Hence the latest, lesser notion gripping Europe's exchanges: bilateral or multilateral links. The futures exchanges have shown the way. Last year four smaller exchanges led by Amsterdam's EOE and OM, an op-tions exchange based in Sweden and London, joined together in a federation called FEX In January of this year the continent's two biggest exchanges, MATIF and the DTB, announced a link-up that was clearly aimed at toppling London's LIFFE from its dominant position Gerard Pfauwadel, MATIF's chairman, trumpets the deal as a precedent for other European exchanges. Mr Breuer, the Deutsche Borse's chairman, reckons that a network of European exchanges is the way forward, though he concedes that London will not warm to the idea. The bourses of France and Germany can be expected to follow the MATIF/DTB lead.<br />
It remains unclear how such link-ups will work, however. The notion is that members of one exchange should be able to trade products listed on another. So a Frenchman wanting to buy German government-bond futures could do so through a dealer on MATIF, even though the contract is actually traded in Frankfurt. That is easy to arrange via screen-based trading: all that are needed are local terminals. But linking an electronic market such as the DTB to a floorbased market with open-outcry trading such as MATIF is harder Nor have any exchanges thought through an efficient way of pooling their settlement systems<br />
In any case, linkages and networks will do nothing to reduce the plethora of European exchanges, or to build a single market for the main European blue-chip stocks. For that a bigger joint effort is needed It would not mean the death of national exchanges, for there will always be business for individual investors, and in se-curities issued locally Mr Breuer observes that ultimately all business is local. Small investors will no doubt go on worrying about currency<br />
risk unless and until monetary union happens. Yet large wholesale investors are already used to hedging against it. For them, <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">investment</a> in big European blue-chip securities would be much simpler on a single wholesale European market, probably subject to a single regulator<br />
More to the point, if investors and issuers want such a market, it will emerge—whether today's ex-changes provide it or not. What, after all, is an exchange? It is no more than a </span></div><br />

Even experienced investors can have great difficulty in assessing the real value of a new offering under these conditions.<br />
Also, it may be hard for your broker to give you impartial advice. If the brokerage firm is in the under-writing group, or in the "selling group" of dealers that supplements the underwriting group, it has a vested in-terest in seeing the securities sold. Also, the commissions are likely to be substantially higher than on an ordi-nary stock. On the other hand, if the stock is a "hot issue" in great demand, it may be sold only through small individual allocations to favored customers (who will benefit if the <a href="http://www.googlefinancenews.com/" target="">stock</a> then trades in the open market at a price well above the fixed offering price)<br />
If you are considering buying a new issue, one protective step you can take is to read the prospectus The prospectus is a legal document describing the company and offering the securities to the public. Unless the of-fering is a very small one, it can't be made without passing through a registration process with the SEC. The SEC can't vouch for the value of the offering, but it does act to make sure that essential facts about the com-pany and the offering are disclosed in the prospectus.<br />
This requirement of full disclosure was part of the securities laws of the 1930s and has been a great boon to investors and to the securities markets. It works because both the underwriters and the offering com-panies know that if any material information is omitted or misstated in the prospectus, the way is open to law-suits from investors who have bought the securities.<br />
In a typical new offering, the final prospectus isn't ready until the day the securities are offered. But be-fore that date you can get a "preliminary prospectus" or "red herring"—so na¬med because it carries red letter-ing warning that the prospectus hasn't yet been cleared by the SEC as meeting disclosure require¬ments<br />
The red herring will not contain the offering price or the final underwriting arrangements But it will give you a description of the company's business, and financial statements showing just what the company's growth and profitability have been over the last several years It will also tell you something about the man-agement. If the management group is taking the occasion to sell any large percentage of its stock to the public, be particularly wary.<br />
It is a very different case when an established public company is selling additional stock to raise new capital. Here the company and the<a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank"> stock</a> have track records that you can study, and it's not so difficult to make an estimate of what might be a reasonable price for the stock The offering price has to be close to the current market price, and the underwriters' profit margin will generally be smaller But you still need to be careful. While the SEC has strict rules against promoting any new offering, the securities industry often manages to create an aura of enthusiasm about a company when an offering is on the way On the other hand, the knowl-edge that a large offering is coming may depress the market price of a stock, and there are times when the of-fering price turns out to have been a bargain<br />
New bond offerings are a different animal altogether. The bond markets are highly professional, and there is nothing glamorous about a new bond offering. Everyone knows that a new A-rated corporate<br />
bond will be very similar to all the old A-rated bonds. In fact, to sell the new issue effectively, it is usu-ally priced at a slightly higher "effective yield" than the current market for comparable older bonds—either at a slightly higher interest rate, or a slightly lower dollar price, or both. So for a bond buyer, new issues often of-fer a slight price advantage.<br />
What is true of corporate bonds applies also to U.S. government and municipal issues. When the Treas-ury comes to market with a new issue of bonds or notes (a very frequent occurrence), the new issue is priced very close to the market for outstanding (existing) Treasury securities, but the new issue usually carries a slight price concession that makes it a good buy. The same is true of bonds and notes brought to market by state and local governments; if you are a buyer of municipals, these new offerings may provide you with mod-est price concessions. If the quality is what you want, there's no reason you shouldn't buy them—even if your broker makes a little extra money on the deal.<br />
<b>8. MUTUAL FUNDS. A DIFFERENT APPROACH</b></span> </div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Up until now, we have described the ways in which securities are bought directly, and we have dis-cussed how you can make such investments through a brokerage account.<br />
But a brokerage account is not the only way to invest. For many investors, a brokerage has disadvan-tages–the difficulty of selecting an individual broker, the commission costs (especially on small transactions), and the need to be involved in decisions that many would prefer to leave to professionals. For people who feel this way, there is an excellent alternative available—mutual funds.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_OjbXUkceeB2r9RYyZESh1m_D2V9fXoOLx9JTt-bsDVX1AqhA1TKagj_SMJW2YCXm4Y8TDzpEsfA4rnQp-nu-Q2TQAwUbOXBPa4YJc4paKuNqmA9aYF4I7DroCJZFVirSA7h9zBQU7Q6z/s1600/99.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_OjbXUkceeB2r9RYyZESh1m_D2V9fXoOLx9JTt-bsDVX1AqhA1TKagj_SMJW2YCXm4Y8TDzpEsfA4rnQp-nu-Q2TQAwUbOXBPa4YJc4paKuNqmA9aYF4I7DroCJZFVirSA7h9zBQU7Q6z/s1600/99.jpeg" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">It isn't easy to manage a small investment account effectively. A mutual fund gets around this problem by pooling the money of many investors so that it can be managed efficiently and economically as a single large unit. The best-known type of mutual fund is probably the money market fund, where the pool is invested for complete safety in the shortest-term income-producing investments. Another large group of mutual funds invest in common <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stocks</a>, and still others invest in long-term bonds, tax-exempt securities, and more special-ized types of investments.<br />
The mutual fund principle has been so successful that the funds now manage over $400 billion of inves-tors' money—not including over $250 billion in the money market funds.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />

In recent years a new type of option has become extremely popular: options related to the various <a href="http://www.googlefinancenews.com/" target="">stock market </a>averages, which let you speculate on the direction of the whole market rather than on individual stocks. Many trading techniques used by expert investors are built around options; some of these techniques are in-tended to reduce risks rather than for speculation.\</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
<b>4.6 Rights</b></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br />
When a corporation wants to sell new securities to raise additional capital, it often gives its stockholders rights to buy the new securities (most often additional shares of stock) at an attractive price. The right is in the nature of an option to buy, with a very short life. The holder can use ("exercise") the right or can sell it to someone else. When rights are issued, they are usually traded (for the short period until they expire) on the same exchange as the stock or other security to which they </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><br />
<b>4.7 Warrants</b></b><br />
A warrant resembles a right in that it is issued by a company and gives the holder the option of buying the stock (or other security) of the company from the company itself for a specified price. But a warrant has a longer life—often several years, sometimes without limit As with rights, warrants are negotiable (meaning that they can be sold by the owner to someone else), and several warrants are traded on the major exchanges.<br />
<b>4.8 Commodities and Financial Futures</b></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br />
The commodity markets, where foodstuffs and industrial commodities are traded in vast quantities, are outside the scope of this text. But because the commodity markets deal in "futures"—that is, contracts for de-livery of a certain good at a specified future date— they have also become the center of trading for "financial futures", which, by any logical definition, are not commodities at all.<br />
Financial futures are relatively new, but they have rapidly zoomed in importance and in trading activity. Like options, the futures can be used for protective purposes as well as for speculation. Making the most head-lines have been stock index futures, which permit investors to speculate on the future direction of the stock market averages. Two other types of financial futures are also of great importance: interest rate futures, which are based primarily on the prices of U.S. Treasury bonds, notes, and bills, and which fluctuate according to the level of interest rates; and foreign currency futures, which are based on the exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. Although, futures can be used for protective purposes, they are generally a highly speculative area intended for professionals and other expert inve¬stors.<br />
<b>5. STOCK MARKET AVERAGES READING THE NEWSPAPER QUOTATIONS</b></span> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> The financial pages of the newspaper are mystery to many people. But dramatic movements in the stock market often make the front page. In newspaper headlines, TV news summaries, and elsewhere, almost every-one has been exposed to the stock market averages.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> In a brokerage firm office, it's common to hear the question "How's the market?" and answer, "Up five dollars", or "Down a dollar". With 1500 common stocks listed on the NYSE, there has to be some easy way to express the price trend of the day. <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Market</a> averages are a way of summarizing that information.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Despite all competition, the popularity crown still does to an average that has some of the qualities of an antique–the Dow Jones Industrial Average, an average of 30 prominent stocks dating back to the 1890s. This average is named for Charles Dow–one of the earliest stock market theorists, and a founder of Dow Jones & Company, a leading financial news service and publisher of the Wall Street Journal.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> In the days before computers, an average of 30 stocks was perhaps as much as anyone could calculate on a practical basis at intervals throughout the day. Now, the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index (500 leading stocks) and the New York Stock Exchange Composite Index (all stocks on the NYSE) provide a much more accurate picture of the total market. The professionals are likely to focus their attention on these "broad" mar-ket indexes. But old habits die slowly, and someone calls out, "How's the market?" and someone else answers, "Up five dollars," or "Up five"–it's still the Dow Jones Industrial Average (the "Dow" for short) that they're talking about.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> The importance of daily changes in the averages will be clear if you view them in percentage terms. When the market is not changing rapidly, the normal daily change is less than ½ of 1%. A change of ½% is still moderate; 1% is large but not extraordinary; 2% is dramatic. From the market averages, it's a short step to the thousands of detailed listings of stock prices and related data that you'll find in the daily newspaper finan-cial tables. These tables include complete reports on the previous day's trading on the NYSE and other leading exchanges. They can also give you a surprising amount of extra information.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Some newspapers provide more extensive tables, some less. Since the Wall Street Journal is available world wide, we'll use it as a source of convenient examples. You'll find a prominent page headed "New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions". This table covers the day's trading for all stocks listed on the NYSE. "Composite" means that it also includes trades in those same stocks on certain other exchanges (Pa-cific, Midwest, etc.) where the stocks are "dually listed". Here are some sample entries:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Some of the abbreviated company names in the listings can be a considerable puzzle, but you will get used to them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> While some of the columns contain longer-term information about the stocks and the companies, we'll look first at the columns that actually report on the day's trading. Near the center of the table you will see a column headed "Sales 100s". Stock trading generally takes place in units of 100 shares and is tabulated that way; the figures mean, for example, that 90,900 shares of Consolidated Edison, 1,192,400 shares of General Electric, and 1,571,300 shares of Mobil traded on January 8. (Mobil actually was the 12th "most active" <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock</a> on the NYSE that day, meaning that it ranked 12th in number of shares traded.)</span></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span><br />

Some examples are food companies, beverage companies, pa-per and packaging manufacturers, retail stores, and many companies in assorted consumer fields.<br />
As long as the economy is healthy and growing, these companies are perfectly reasonable investments; and at certain times when everyone is interested in "glamour" stocks, these "non-glamour" issues may be ne-glected and available at bargain prices. Their growth may not be rapid, but it usually is reasonably consistent. Also, since these companies generally do not need to plow all their earnings back into the business, they tend to pay sizable dividends to their stockholders. In addition to the real growth that these companies achieve, their values should adjust upward over time in line with inflation—a general advantage of common stocks that is worth repeating.<br />
3.2 Cyclical Stocks.<br />
These are stocks of companies that do not show any clear growth trend, but where the stocks fluctuate in line with the business cycle (prosperity and recession) or some other recognizable pattern. Obviously, one can make money if he buys these near the bottom of a price cycle and sells near the top. But the bottoms and tops can be hard to recognize when they occur; and sometimes, when you think that a stock is near the bottom of a cycle, it may instead be in a process of long-term decline.<br />
3.3 Special Situations.<br />
There's a type of investment that professionals usually refer to as "special situations". These are cases where some particular corporate development–perhaps a merger, change of control, sale of property, etc.– seems likely to raise the value of a stock. Special situation investments may be less affected by general stock market movements than the average stock investment; but if the expected development doesn't occur, an in-vestor may suffer a loss, sometimes sizable. Here the investor has to judge the odds of the expected develop-ment's actually coming to pass.<br />
<b>4. PREFERRED STOCKS</b><br />
A preferred stock is a stock which bears some resemblances to a bond (see below). A preferred stock-holder is entitled to dividends at a specified rate, and these dividends must be paid before any dividends can be paid on the company's common stock. In most cases the preferred dividend is cumulative, which means that if it isn't paid in a given year, it is owed by the company to the preferred stockholder. If the corporation is sold or liquidates, the preferred stockholders have a claim on a certain portion of the assets ahead of the common stockholders. But while a bond is scheduled to be redeemed by the corporation on a certain "maturity" date, a preferred stock is ordinarily a permanent part of the corporation's capital structure. In exchange for receiving an assured dividend, the preferred stockholder generally does not share in the progress of the company; the preferred stock is only entitled to the fixed dividend and no more (except in a small minority of cases where the preferred stock is "participating" and receives higher dividends on some basis as the company's earnings grow).<br />
Many preferred stocks are listed for trading on the NYSE and other exchanges, but they are usually not priced very attractively for individual buyers. The reason is that for corporations desiring to invest for fixed income, preferred stocks carry a tax advantage over bonds. As a result, such corporations generally bid the prices of preferred stocks up above the price that would have to be paid for a bond providing the same income. For the individual buyer, a bond may often be a better buy.<br />
<b>4.1 Bonds-Corporate</b><br />
Unlike a <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">stock,</a> a bond is evidence not of ownership, but of a loan to a company (or to a government, or to some other organization). It is a debt obligation. When you buy a corporate bond, you have bought a portion of a large loan, and your rights are those of a lender. You are entitled to interest payments at a specified rate, and to repayment of the full "face amount" of the bond on a specified date. The fixed interest payments are usually made semiannually. The quality of a corporate bond depends on the financial strength of the issuing corporation.<br />
Bonds are usually issued in units of $1,000 or $5,000, but bond prices are quoted on the basis of 100 as "par" value. A bond price of 96 means that a bond of $1,000 face value is actually selling at $960 And so on.<br />
Many corporate bonds are traded on the NYSE, and newspapers carry a separate daily table showing bond trading. The major trading in corporate bonds, however, takes place in large blocks of $100,000 or more traded off the Exchange by brokers and dealers acting for their own account or for institutions.<br />
<b>4.2 Bonds-U. S. Government</b><br />
U.S. Treasury bonds (long-term), notes (intermediate-term) and bills (short-term), as well as obligations of the various U. S. government agencies, are traded away from the exchanges in a vast professional market where the basic unit of trading is often $ 1 million face value in amount. However, trades are also done in smaller amounts, and you can buy Treasuries in lots of $5,000 or $10,000 through a regular broker. U. S. gov-ernment bonds are regarded as providing investors with the ultimate in safety.<br />
<b>4.3 Bonds-Municipal</b><br />
Bonds issued by state and local governments and governmental units are generally referred to as "mu-nicipals" or "tax-exempts", since the income from these bonds is largely exempt from federal income tax.<br />
Tax-exempt bonds are attractive to individuals in higher tax brackets and to certain institutions. There are many different issues and the newspapers generally list only a small number of actively traded municipals. The trading takes place in a vast, specialized over-the-counter market. As an offset to the tax advantage, inter-est rates on these bonds are generally lower than on U. S. government or corporate bonds. Quality is usually high, but there are variations according to the financial soundness of the various states and communities.<br />
<b>4.4 Convertible Securities</b><br />
A convertible bond (or convertible debenture) is a corporate bond that can be converted into the com-pany's common stock under certain terms. Convertible preferred stock carries a similar "conversion privilege". These securities are intended to combine the reduced risk of a bond or preferred stock with the advantage of conversion to common stock if the company is successful. The <a href="http://tradingmanagement.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">market</a> price of a convertible security generally represents a combination of a pure bond price (or a pure preferred stock price) plus a premium for the conver-sion privilege. Many convertible issues are listed on the NYSE and other exchanges, and many others are traded over-the-counter<br />
<b>4.5 Options</b><br />
An option is a piece of paper that gives you the right to buy or sell a given security at a specified price for a specified period of time. A "call" is an option to buy, a "put" is an option to sell. In simplest form, these have become an extremely popular way to </span></div><br />
