Hi I need some investing advice. I live in UK and have 50k pounds in my bank account? Please advice me of some investment with good returns?

The best investment will be in something that develops you and increases your earning power. Since your brief question included a spelling mistake, I would imagine that you have not had much education. So you might consider getting some ‘A’ levels or even a degree, and see what doors that could open for you.In purely financial terms, the standard answers are property and the stock market. Both of these markets seem to be near the top, however, so any such investments made now are likely to reduce in value before increasing again. One possible exception is alternative (“clean”) energy in the UK. There are two Investment Trusts that have a protected market position and pay dividends of around five per cent each year: all the evidence I have seen suggests that they present a very low risk for the benefits they offer. They are called Greencare and The Renewable Investment Group.

I need some advice about etfs.. How do we invest in.them what is the basic requirement in terms of capital?

ETFs are exchange traded mutual funds. They track a particular index and their returns will be almost the same as the returns of the Index. ETFs only hold those shares which are also in the particular index, for example NIFTY. As the market capitalisation of constituent companies of Nifty change due to changes in share prices, the ETFS also continuously change the weights of the stocks they hold to take care of this. SO they give almost the same returns as Index.Minimum investment required is Rs 10000 normally.You can invest in ETFs online here Mintster | Invest OnlineGive your details there and I will advice you appropriately based on your profile.

What is the best investing advice you have received?

The only way of making money in stock market is Value investing. I remember when my father open a trading account and he asked me to buy and sell using software for him. he was buying and selling on leverage from tips from his broker, even though investment was pretty small and he made money in beginning but he lost all of it within 2 months. this was around 7–8 years ago. and then comes the Cinderella moment I came to know about Warren buffett.I read almost every single book on investing and valuations.(please check comment section, I have shared my collection) And reading Berkshire hathway annual meeting letters and transcript. It became my breakfast and dinner, I spend years before I actually invested my first rupee after that.It wasn't hard for me to gasp that I am not smart enough to time the market, its impossible, and start learning analyzing businesses across NSE. I can say I read more then 500+ annual reports in those years, and I still do, value investing suits me.In January 2013 I created a portfolio and posted it on forums, where I still write in my free time. I created it to see if I can beat my target of 12% by year end and see see if value investing beat other traders and investors, Traders who buy and sell on swing, or gamble based on hunch and here is the result.Then another one, its also in public domain. created in January 2014I unintentionally beat not just all the traders and investors, but also all the Mutual funds and Fund managers in India.Only advice I would give to new investors is that do not listen to any news, stock tips, fund managers but study, warren buffett has devoted his life in teaching without asking anything is return, his advice are worth billions.ps. No one can teach someone, how to be a good painter, singer, chess champion, similar value investing came with self practice. If you want to invest into value iriented fund then message me, i can suggest few good managers.

Okay so we have to use excel, select 5 stocks from the S&P 500 and watch them everyday. I am using yahoo finaince.

The criteria we use on excel are

Name of stock
Buy price
# of shares
Market price
Closing price

My question is specifically with # of shares. Is this how many shares I purchased? The thing is when I look at my classmates work i see something else.

Ie)

Buy price = 35.01
# of shares = 2285.0614
Market value = 80,000

Where the heck did he get # of shares? If you select the amount why is it a decimal?


The professor also said Please keep track of the daily performance of your portfolio and compare it to the return on the S&P 500. Your objective is to outperform the S&P 500 Index. You should keep a daily record and begin to graph the value of your portfolio relative to the SPY.
