which stock is good for short term gains in the current market?

Answer 1

If you are asking that question in this forum, you are obviously a naive investor. You should avoid buying individual stocks and put your money in a no-load mutual fund.

The fact is that if anyone knew of a stock that was going to outperform, they would buy it & that would bid up the price, making it less likely to outperform for later investors.

Academic studies show that new information gets imbedded in prices almost immediately. That means that if someone tells you here that there is good news for a company, that good news is already priced in.

The only way to beat the market on a regular basis is to have private information. There are three ways to get private information. One is to have insider information (which is usually illegal to use in tradnig). One way is to pay for it -- taking away the advantage. The third way is to gather up all public information on your own & glean information from it -- leading you to realize the private information that causes the public information. In other words -- use fundamental analysis. Since there are other people doing this analysis on big firms -- the payoff isn't going to be high, since they will probably ge tthe information before you.

That means that profits are to be made in smaller firms where no analyst is covering the company. You can be the first to learn what the public information means. Unfortunately, doing this involves a skill and knowledge that most people don't possess. And it is certainly a knowledge that you aren't going to get asking here.

No load mutual funds are your best bet.

Answer 2

The stock market is never good for short term gains!

Answer 3

If by short term you mean about 12 months try this

It is low to medium risk just like the stock market, but I have made a mint out of it.
I wouldnt recomend without my first hand experience of this product.

Answer 4

try some of the small cap or mid cap companies cauz their stocks are not that expensive so you can buy more quantity and price fluctuation is also good around the quarter ends. so

Ex. if u buy a $4 stock in quantity of 2000 than even if the stock goes0.75 cents up you ll make $1500.

so the gain is ther but the risk also there so do your research before investing.

The secret word of trading success is "organized". You can't be successful without a strategy, a plan and some kind of technological support. I use a software called "autobinary signals" that is helping me a lot. There are plenty of them on the market. I recommend this one because it's very easy to use (you don't have to be an expert or have special skills to make money with it).

A common misconception is that you will have to be a financial and business expert in order to successfully trade binary options. However, this is not true at all. Learn here https://tr.im/Bfg2p

Perhaps it’s true when it comes to traditional stocks trading but definitely not true in the case of binaries. You don’t have to be an expert to predict the movement of certain assets.

i have attended a lot of seminars, read counless books on forex trading and it all cost me thousands of dollars. the worst thing was i blew up my first account. after that i opened another account and the same thing happened again. i started to wonder why i couldn,t make any money in forex trading. at first i thought i knew everything about trading. finally i found that the main problem i have was i did not have the right mental in trading. as we know that psychology has great impact on our trading result. apart from psychology issue, there is another problem that we have to address. they are money management, market analysis, and entry/exit rules. to me money management is important in trading. i opened another account and start to trade profitably after i learnt from my past mistake. i don't trade emotionally anymore.
if you are serious about trading you need to address your weakness and try to fix it. no forex guru can make you Professional trader unless you want to learn from your mistake.
