My Uncle, My Idol

February 3rd, 2012

If people only knew how to invest in mutual funds, then they’d surely have an edge in the business world. Besides being profitable and safe, people tend to respect you as it is a very complicated matter to setup one of these funds. My uncle is a businessman. He is a stock holder in one of the biggest conglomerates in our area. He started to learn and understand investing in mutual funds when he attended a seminar about it. He was very glad of the knowledge he got from that seminar because he was able to use it in his current business. In fact, the knowledge he got made him elected as the president of the company and that would be a great privilege for him. He really works hard for the betterment of the company. He always makes innovations in their products and services to be able to invite more clients. I really admire my uncle. I hope to become like him someday.

News Stock Trading

December 30th, 2011

There are many ways to make money in the stock market. One such way is called news trading. News trading involves buying or selling stocks based on news stories. I’m not talking about the news stories you read for a given stock on Yahoo Finance, also called press releases. I’m talking about mainstream news stories over ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, and CNN. For example, security stocks exploded upward several years ago after prime time news ran on the Christmas Day Bomber. A more recent example is how oil exploded upward on unrest in Libya. Another recent example is shorting the Euro when mainstream news began running stories about countries like Italy and Spain being unable to pay off their debt.

You will often see stocks across an entire sector show up on this stock screener as the result of some mainstream news story.

The challenge with news trading is to always be in the mindset where you are thinking about how you can profit from the daily news. In the video below, I talk more about the art of news trading.

High Demand Businesses for Sale

December 4th, 2011

A high demand business for sale packs in several variables that make it in demand in the market.

First, a business must have a good selling price to be in demand. The price must be close to the business’ market value. A business appraiser or business broker can help you with regards to setting a fair listing price.

The second factor is the financials. Professionally prepared financial statements give investors more confidence in buying the business.

Third, you must have a good location. Businesses located in busy urban centers have higher demand compared to small town rivals.

Fourth, your business must have a history of success. Buyers look for stable sales and profit growth rates.

Fifth, you should work with professionals. Working with a lawyer, accountant as well as business broker gives you valuable advice that is essential if you want to sell a business. Professionally reviewed businesses give investors more confidence to buy.

Lastly, your preparation also counts. If you are selling a business at the spur of a moment or because of an event such as the death of a loved one, divorce and the like, then you may not be fully ready for the transition. A seller who has prepared well in advance has a better chance of landing a good deal.

Just Got Home from Bordeaux

October 7th, 2011

I have just got back from my cousin’s place in Bordeaux. He is a rather eccentric fellow, but a lot of fun. He used to be something of a performance artist, but he had plenty of money from his father and the two of them always got on even when Miles was behaving oddly. The two of them got into fine wine investment before I had ever heard of anyone else doing it, and I think that they took advantage of a lot of people who lost their fortunes when the bubble burst to be honest. So now Miles has a little chateau in the Bordeaux country side, with a small little vineyard and a couple of pigs, a few cows and a lot of chickens. He has taken up the cello, but honestly he is terrible and does not seem to have the slightest idea of how bad it sounds. You would think someone was being tortured from the sound of it.

Hide in Consumer Staples or Gold Investments

August 7th, 2011

The Dow is down again for like the 7th day in a row. That is not good news for the stock market and it’s not good for the economy. Here is how to invest in stocks for times like these. There might be a bear market heading our way and you need to prepare for it.

Now that the debt ceiling debate is semi-over, investors are looking at the rest of the economy again. It is no longer the main driver of the market. We are back to the economy, and the fundamentals aren’t looking good.

I would start looking at investing in some consumer staples stocks. This is definitely a defensive play, but could still be good for a recovering economy as well. Gold is still on its way up, and until investors get some alternative investing options, it will continue to do so. This is the unfortunate state of the economy and the stock market right now. There are many dangers a head and you need a contingency plan for it.

There is more than one type of IRA plan available, and each plan has different set of an IRA rule and regulation that must be followed. Two of the most common and famous IRA plans that most employed individuals prefer are the Roth IRA and Traditional IRA.

These two has diferent sets of rules, especially on the way they are taxed. With a Traditional IRA, thecontributions are tax-deductible, thus the withdrawals and distributions are taxed as a regular income. With a Roth IRA on the other hand, the contributions are taxed upfront right at the moment these are made, allowing the account holders to enjoy tax-free growth for their investments. And if certain parameters are met, qualified withdrawals are also free of taxes and fees.
