shakespearesghost asked:


Should I only consider those that have paid high dividends consistently in the past? Of course, past performance is no indication of future results; nevertheless, as Patrick Henry put it, “I know of no way to judge the future but by the past.”
I would appreciate literate answers, please!

Does it make sense to hold different investment types - stock, mutual funds, treasury bonds, etc. - in different types of retirement accounts, when it comes to tax implications?

For example, would should one hold in a Roth IRA? In a traditional IRA? In a 401(k)?

Thanks!
I understand diversification. My question is different.
Once I decided how to diversify (income, value, growth, CDs, etc),
is there a specific way to distribute the investment between the different instruments (Roth, traditional, etc) so as to minimize the tax implications? For example, Roth IRAs gains are not taxed at distribution time. Traditional IRAs are taxed.

BT asked:


I have never understood it. I watch those Americans on CNN staring at some tickers with weird names from companies and numbers like NASDAQ, and suddenly you see them jumping up and down, trowing papers in the sky, cheering and then panicking. It’s looks like they are having a party or something.

What’s the purpose of this? I have asked this a couple of times in real life and never understood the importance of this?

Why average people make investments? What are stocks?

What’s the purpose of these certain show (I forgot the name) that I think is shown on NBC where there is this crazy guy telling people which company is “hot” right now and which one is not.
