Hello guys. I intend to start investing in the stock market as soon as possible and i need help. i just started working so i want to save as much as i can while i can. i want to start off with N100,000

Please i need help with
1. A good stockbroking firm or stock broker

Nestle looks so tempting but i obviously cant afford anything substantial. Unity bank cannot get any worse unless the bank crashes and i want to buy transcorp as soon as yesterday or else i can see myself regretting very soon. i want OANDO also but I cant tell how long it will take for them to rise again. i'll invest another 150k by March next year. God willing......and if i don't become materialistic

I recently started following the market but i'm very interested. Please advise

I know investors love to hate unitybank but some invisible forces might drag the bus up-north

I'm just imagining a #100k invesment in nestle. Only about 80 shares. Chai these guys badt o. I'd rather go for Oando since its only just about to start the upward journey. I dey fear Transcorp, since it might take some years before they start paying dividends(given the number and amount of loan they have taken, and the fact that they are also planning on new investments) some may become impatient and begin to shed their shares leadin to a fall in price. Or what do you think?

Cashcraft oooooooo!!

Only invest money you can afford to lose. Try meristem (www.meritrade.com). What you need now is to grow your capital so that you can take long term positions in the future. You can still join the Transcorp ride and make profit. Oando is also on the move, if u have the courage you may join the train too but be at alert to know when to exit these trades. This is just my opinion- you have the final decision. Good luck.

You are right-it may take long before Transcorp will start paying dividends- but in the meantime you can use it for capital appreciation if you are not ready to take your long term position yet. Bonuses may also not be likely any time soon as they already have too many shares in issue (though share buy-back may be a possibility). It requires a great deal of boldness and caution to benefit greatly from Oando. A lot of investors here are taking positions in this stock in anticipation of the completion of COP deal, hopefully by the end of the month/year. Investment in the stock market is all about hope regardless of whether we are going for short, mid or long term. We can only pray for God's guidance.

No be only you ooooohhhhh
I get 200K units of UnionHomes, 200K units of BecoPet, and 150K units of DaarCom for my longest tie portfolio. Na these yeye stocks I use welcome myself into the NSE in 2008.
I don find buyers tire for those stocks since then but I no see. I just simply moved them into my longest time portfolio for my grand grand children.
The current newbies into the NSE dey lucky well well as dem dey learn from our past mistakes.

hahahahaha.....daar communications plc. 5 naira times ...... yeye company, even after 5 years of their IPO, no sign of a better tomorrow. we still dey hear say the company dey hold big gbesee. abegi!

Since u r nw I ll advice that u concentrate on blue chip stocks with long term value, they r still d 1s dat have been benefitial even for short term. Nestle and Oando r good, unity is a wrong choice u dont want 2 gamble with ur money.

You may also check out page 136 of this thread second to the last comment there listed some blue chip stocks you can select..... You need to gain balance first before ..... You just started working you dont want to loose your N100,000, Probably you frist save

Why is it that some stocks have a PE RATIO running into negative. Does that mean they made loses the previous year. Are they safe for longterm buying.

Guys, kindly exercise caution on Unity bank stock, the rally and appreciation there is IRO take over of UNITY by another bank.

Akinmail: Why is it that some stocks have a PE RATIO running into negative. Does that mean they made loses the previous year. Are they safe for longterm buying.

Look at it from the equation: P/E, if the company has been losing money, earnings (E) will be negative and when you have negative earnings that means the P/E ratio will be negative. However, you don't usually see it reported as negative because in finance it is not acceptable, the same way it is impossible to see a negative stock price. so the negative P/E can be reported as N/A, NIL, etc. So if you are buying into such a company with a long term view it means you are hoping things will turn around for the company and that they may go back to profitability.

The best thing for you to do is to read some books. There is a new thread by Stockbull in the investment section (Business/investment Book Directory by stockbull). There are links to E-books that you can download and enjoy. This will enable you make investment decisions yourself. To be very successful in this trade, you have to be the CEO of your investment portfolio and make decisions yourself. This doesn't mean you should not seek advice when you need one. Meanwhile, there are other safe but less profitable investment like Treasury bills in case you are scared of losing your capital because that is the truth- in stock market you can lose your capital. So please be sure you know what you are doing and don't put all your money in stock market. Hope you find this useful.

please anyone with information about cashcraft asset management? I have a lot of transactions with them.

And when the suspension has been placed on the stock, the next thing that may follow is for almighty ETI to perform share reconstruction because that is what they know how to do best. There is no mercy for the shareholders of the coy they acquire.

Abeg oga Ess what is the current situation of our Oando and Transcorp? Any 10% gain today?

My brother it is swinging oh today. There was a massive 100m cross deal today. It shook the price down. Let's see whether it will go back to the 10% again before closure.
Oando at around 7%
Transcorp at 10%
