It would follow that whomever pays these rating's services has something to gain from their services as they are the customer of those services. If a stock is going to be upgraded or downgraded, people in the know can profit from that prior knowledge as it were. So how is the playing field levelled for that information? Can an individual like me find out that info at the same time as the major investor players?

Cliff Swatner is single, 33, and owns a condominium in New York City worth $250,000. Cliff is an attorney and doing well financially. His income last year exceeded $90,000, and he has sufficient liquid assets to supplement his condominium and other tangible assets. Several years ago, Cliff began investing in stocks and bonds. He made his selections on the basis of articles he read describing good investment opportunities. Some have worked well for Cliff, but others have not. Cliff has never taken the time to evaluate his portfolio performance, but he feels it isn't very good. Cliff currently has about $90,000 invested. He has been dating a woman lately and hopes to marry her in three years, at which time he will need $20,000 for marriage expenses and a honeymoon. Cliff's only other objective is to accumulate funds for retirement, but he does not have a specific dollar target for this goal. Cliff feels that he has a moderate risk-tolerance level.

Explain some disadvantages of Cliff's current investment approach.
Construct a portfolio for Cliff, limiting your selections to mutual funds (assume that he sells his current stock and bond holdings). Make sure your plan indicates specific dollar amounts for each portfolio component. Make sure your plan also explains your selections for each portfolio component.
Explain how Cliff should periodically rebalance his portfolio, indicating how frequently rebalancing should be done.
SHOW ALL WORK FOR EACH ASSIGNMENT AND EXPLAIN EACH STEP CAREFULLY.

Can someone explain that concept in the following example. Trader 1 buys Stock A at $10 and sells it to Trader 2 at $15. Trader 2 sells Stock A at $22 to Trader 3, who in turn sells it for $25. Who lost money in this scenario. My contention is it is not a zero sum game as there is a historical upward bias in the market. (yes, i understand stocks go down as well, but historically the Dow has gone from 74.10 in 1916 to 12795 in 2007, easily proving this upward bias)

I found a stock certificate for shares that were purchased in 1986. I had forgotten all about them. The clearing house I bought them from is no longer in business. The stock is still active and is currently trading at about $12. I would still need to know if it has had any splits or reverse splits. I do not have a stock broker. Also, the stock is in my ex-husbands name and I have not spoken to him in years. Is there any way to cash it in while not contacting him. He probably has forgotten all about it.

My dad started getting my daughter a savings bond every month. But then we found out that they take like 20 years to mature. Is there anything similar to a bond that will mature faster, and possibly more and for around the same price as a savings bond.

I'm not exactly sure how long they take to mature, but I know it's a long time (20 yrs sounds about right to me). Also the ones she has are EE.

Bought a year ago when it was around 50 cents a share. Doubled my money a few months ago...but now things are beginning to crash and burn. Will it EVER go back up...or is the fire out permanently?
