stock question for everyone?

Question

just wondering, would you invest in a new company where stock is low? If a company told you it would be the next microsoft and was at only 5.00 or less a share would you buy up just incase?

Answer 1

I have never played the stock market, and I can't say as I would start now.

Answer 2

Stillson8 is correct. Never base an investment entirely on a company's own hype. And I'd add another caution: If the company said they are the "next Microsoft" I would avoid them like the plague.

The stock price is almost irrelevant. The P/E ratio or maybe price/revenues ratio is much more important.

Answer 3

I'd never invest based solely on what the company said about itself. Too many people make stuff up about this sort of thing, and it's too easy to do so. I'd also never invest in a company whose stock price was lower than $10 per share. But that's just me.
