Investment groups 

 

New investors can ease their way into investing and gain invaluable experience through group discussions.

​

Long term investors can benefit from new ideas and research opportunities as other members bring suggestions to the table to be analysed.

 

Being a member of a group has many benefits:

​

• You will gain investment knowledge that you can then apply to your personal portfolio

• The ability to have investment decisions analyzed from different points of view 

• New investment ideas and research spread among a number of people can lead to a great learning experience 

• Investment strategies learned here can yield excellent returns year after year 

• Choose several stocks and assess a company's strengths, weaknesses and growth prospects as a learning experience

• When to sell; buying seems much easier for many investors 

• Often a group of people who do not know each other can find investing and friendship while enjoying their learning experience

​

A few things to consider:

  

• Language of investing - just what do those terms mean

• Buying, selling, tracking your money

• Tax implications

• Bank and investment statements

• Fraudulent claims and/or promotions (e.g. penny stocks - did every stock start trading as a penny stock?)

• Research information and newsletters; how do you know what is reliable

​

No security recommendations will be made by Arnason Investor Education. The objective is to teach participants the basics of investing with an advisor or in self directed accounts.
