I'm really enjoying the heck out of my Unisys stock, UIS. The computer company was a perennial loser, but seems to have gotten its ducks in line. You better hurry though, I bought it at $6-something and last I checked it was well above $8, so it might not be an under $10 stock for long. Good luck.

(Of course, things don't go up incessantly)

You shouldn't look at the price of the stock, but you should look at the value. 1 share of a $100 stock is just as expensive as 10 shares of a $10 stock but if the $100 stock goes up 10% and the $10 stock goes up 5% you'd be better off with the $100 stock.

If you really are starting small (you should have at least $25k and be able to invest a minimum of $1000 at a time if you want to buy stocks) you should consider investing in funds first. They don't have transaction fees and you can start with a small amount without losing a lot to fees.

Good luck!

maximum shares under $10/proportion are destined to be properly worth not something interior the not-too-distant destiny; think of approximately it, it fairly is why they are figuring out to purchase and merchandising at under $10 a proportion! in case you have offered such shares interior the previous, and made money, then it fairly exchange into luck better than something! one hundred shares of a $a million inventory are properly worth precisely the comparable as 2 shares of a $50 inventory. the wide-unfold difference is that it is lots greater unusual for a $50 inventory to bypass abdomen-up one night and be valueless interior the morning! P.S. My in demand inventory is BRK-A, which has wickedly outperformed the S&P500, the Dow Jones Index, and the Nasdaq for YEARS. besides the undeniable fact that it ain't no $10 inventory!

It's a site that checks on Jim Cramer's "picks", but you don't have to pay any attention to that...just click on " Stocks Under $10." and there's an alphabetical list..( ignore the " sign-up" stuff) and just click on a few stock names , check performance...

One I would suggest is BHY Blackrock High Yield Bond Fund. It is a diversified junk bond fund which (when interest rates go down) should go up in value. I have seen it selling for 50% above its net asset value. In the mean time you collect the dividends. Barrons Financial Weekly lists the closed-end funds , their net asset value and their market value.

stay the hell away from Sirius and Northwest. Sirius is in trouble and these constant will never happen rumors of a merger with XM is hurting matters. Northwest because airlines are in serious trouble and this one is still in bankruptcy.
