Are You Ready To Invest In Stocks? | |||||||
Remember that all stocks are volatile, but they also represent one of the best investing sectors. Over the last 77 years, the larger stocks have returned about 12% to investors. That's an average so some years those stocks went down, but over the long haul those stocks have had outstanding performances. So it's easy to get very positive on stocks and point to the great records they've produced. But those numbers don't tell the whole story because they are averages and include all stocks. If you think about buying stocks, you won't buy all of them. You'll buy individual issues.
