Last trade is basically the last recorded price of a single share, right? Let's pretend that last trade is about 50 bucks, and the EPS is $7.00 (considered a good return, isn't it?) If you buy 50 shares of this company you'll be in the hole $2500 dollars. Those 50 shares will be worth $350. Why would anyone do this? Isn't 50 shares considered conservative? Don't serious investors buy WAY more shares than that?Someone please help me with the basics of investing, it just doesn't make sense to me.
