This is retarded but hear me out, I need help.

Lets say there is a company that has stocks worth 10 dollars.

Lets say it is a company that depends on the world running smoothly .

As soon as lockdown/quarantine hits, its stock drops to 1 dollar.

If we assume that its stock would stabilize and rise back to its previous price, and I buy 10 stocks today while it is at 1 dollar, does it mean that when it stabilizes I would have 100 dollars worth of stocks?


Is that how stocks work?


I buy a stock when it is low, and when its price rises I can sell for profit?

Anon, I...


Btw, very roughly, yes.
But if the stock goes to 1 from 10 there's a serious risk of the society going bankrupt, so you'd better to read about it before buy the stocks.

Read about it in what sense exactly hmmm.
I might have been dumb in explaining it but basiaclly it is an airline company, does that change anything?
I mean I am assuming the country would never let something like that to go bankrupt right?

I know it is. This is what shocks me. Stocks are money printers if you find the right oppoturnity.

Let's say Pfizer stocks go from 10 to 1, you don't simply buy those, you search for info on Pfizer to understand what happened.

In the airlines case there's the covid lockdown that made the stocks fall.
You can buy but you have to be careful, price going up is likely but not GUARANTEED.

>> No.19567375

>>19567268
But lets say it is the biggest airline in the country, and yeah the stocks actually did go down due to covid. So after the lockdown, does it not guarantee increase?
I mean it wouldnt make sense to let the biggest airline in your country to go bankrupt right?

This is not true, there are a lot of stocks still recovering.
What op has to understand is that the market is risky, and greed is a problem.
Ok, airline stocks will recover, but no one knows how much they will recover, maybe not 100%
You can put some money but need to be careful.
Don't trade if you don't know how to trade.

remember anon, others are probably thinking the same thing while only a few would actually sell because they either need to or because they want higher short term returns.

in your scenario, the stock would probably just drop to 7-8 dollars or (20-30% if you're also too retarded to know that).

start off small, watch videos on youtube explaining stuff. go to /biz/, r/stocks on reddit,r/wallstreetbets on reddit etc. also don't ever bet money you can't afford to lose.

Not OP, but how do dividends work? If my stock says it earned about 1% quarterly, and i have 100 of these, would that earn me 1 stock per quarter, assuming that the dividend remains the same %?

>> No.19568525

Honest recommendation is not to touch stocks. If you are asking what happens as the price of the stock you own changes then you are the donkey sitting at the poker table.

There are no guarantees. You take on risk and your reward is that you MAY make money.

As an investor you are looking to maintain a positive expected outcome over a long period of time. This means making like 6% of your investment back each year, not getting rich quick. It means you have to buy into a diversified portfolio (i.e. not just buying one stock or asset, since the market may do well while Tesla goes bankrupt) and holding it through rough times (like the incoming financial apocalypse) until the market returns and improves like 10 years later. You better be willing to put a large portion of your net worth into the market and crash for a decade without selling.

If you want to speculate and make short term gains, you are trying to figure out what everyone thinks the market is going to do vs what it actually will do, and you are trying to do this alone and with no knowledge, experience, financial backing etc. in direct competition with massive banks, investment firms, and gigachad day traders. Your tools for doing this are things like technical analysis (the financial equivalent of reading tea leaves) or what everyone else on this board is doing - drumming up fake hype for shitcoins so others will buy them and push the price up, followed by you selling your own stockpile of magic beans
