Aren't dividends meaningless since the price of the stock goes down anyway on the Ex-Date? As far as your absolute balance is concerned, there's no change: Portfolio down by the amount of the dividend being distributed while your cash balance is up a few days later by the same amount.

Im thiking of a giving a shot at penny stocks. I know its a big risk/gamble, but Im planning to try nevertheless just few hundereds.

Is there an issue with which I trader I buy. I mean since some penny stocks dont trade much in a day. If I buy, the brokerage has to find a seller right? But this maybe an issue if the sellers, dont use that brokerage.
I have used etrade before. But openend in fidelity and zecco.

Im a newbie in trading, so can someone pls clarify this:
If I see the price as $X and I sell immediately, am i gauranteed for the sale to be at that price?
Or the brokerage firm has to wait to find a buyer and then setlle my price.

I plan on working this summer, saving up for next semester tution, but what ever I make this summer, I plan on putting at least 500 in some sort of investment.

Things is i don't know what to invest in. I don't want to invest in something where I will lose it all, nothing risky. I would prefer something safe and secure.

Any ideas?
