So I started a thread in the "Financial Investment" forum but that section gets little action so hopefully we can keep this up here for a little while MODS.
Alright, I know nothing about stock. Buying, selling, shorting, whatever. I don't know where to sign up online, what fee's I should expect, obvious signs of a company I should not purchase.
I know that some here do dabble and I also know that there are many on here who see the downed market as an opportunity.
So I figure why not have a "Buying Stock for Dummies" thread where we can throw out stupid questions and maybe someone will come in and answer them.
1. Where should I sign up to trade?
2. I am interested in AIG, Ford, GM, and SIRI... Does anyone know anything about any of them?
