Answer 2

Before you enter into an open position with stocks, make sure you have an exit plan. What kind of return are you looking for? The more you demand, the more risk you have to take, so the greedier you are, the more likely you are to lose your principal of $1000.00.
It works the opposite too, the more scared you are of losing your money, the less risk you take, and then you have to deal with trying to keep up with inflation, and opportunity loss.
Do some "paper trading" first. There are many programs on msn finance or yahoo finance will let you put together an imaginary portfolio to help you learn. If your $1000 is just some school project, and you have a couple of weeks to make it grow, learn as much as you can from news about any stocks that just got slammed because of rumours, or are about to split, or just announced that they will be bought out and merged with another company. These tend to move pretty quick short term, but get out before they go back down, so figure out what you want out of it, and remember about the greed.

Answer 3

Find a highly rated no-load mutual fund that invests in a wide range of companies. If you can't find one on your own go to a broker in your local bank. Then try to add small amounts each month. Don't think that you will make money overnight. Think of it as a long term investment. In five years you should do pretty well. It's not without risk but certainly a lot safer than Vegas.

Answer 4
