what i know about shares u could write on the back of a postage stamp.
i read the investor chronicle and bought shares in RBS AND BARCLAYS after reading that u could not go wrong buying them
bought barclays at 5.32
rbs at 4.35
so nursing heavy losses on both
been buying and selling for ten years now and at the end of last year i was up £79 grand
that includes everything, divis and my accountant fees
the mistake that i make is that i sell too early when a share is going up [ ie minerva, bought at 13p sold at 31p now 83p ]
and i wont sell if a share is going down.
my new policy is that i will hold on to share for at least one year before making a decision and most decision will be made in march and before april the 5th for tax reasons
have over 80 shares , which i know is a lot , but that is what i like,
plenty of divis. and a chance of a takeover.
bought three shares today

Short answer, no. At least make sure it is actually going up first. Put a 200 moving average on a daily chart, it will help.

I sold my house back in 2006. A year too early in a few peoples eyes.
I say its better to be too early than too late. |

Yes but it's all about timing.
You could have bought pretty much anything when the FTSE was down to 3500 and still have made a lot of money. However it's when the markets are overbought or flat, like they are now, that you need to use all your skills in order to make some money. |

If you buy undervalued stocks with decent dividends yes you can make money no problem. Trouble is there aren't many of those around at the moment.

This thread is showing a lot of intellectual promise.
In fact it may in itself answer exactly the question being posed by the OP. |

Rather than guessing, an easy way to invest in shares is to buy an ETF tracking one or some of the indicies
