Is there a stock answer?

Question

My advisor told me that to put it into layman's terms my investments can go up and down like an whore's drawers. Should I pull out and stick in Ernie?

Answer 1

Well it's good to withdraw before a collapse. You could end up squirting all your funds away and you could end up screwed.

Answer 2

Best answer i can think of
1) check out the excellent investing articles here:

2) It all depends what you stock you're invested in........ but if in doubt, I guess if you want to play it safe stick 75% of it into ERNIE..... the rest into a few shares (e.g. via a SHAREBUILDER.com account) picked for the long term such as "Anheuser-Busch" (BUD), "Walmart" (WMT), Toyota (TM) + "Canadian Pacific" (CP) or "Union Pacific" (UNP)... then using any & all dividends earned to purchase more of the stock so you're entitled to more dividend next time round (and so on).

Answer 3

no, stock trading is dangerous business, you need to have the gut and vision, and any business need to manipulate by expertise, if u dont have it, either dont want to learn it, then dont put in ernie, give it to me , i will do it for u, u get better returns than saving accounts.
