I didn't know you could invest in ARM stock. Some time ago I tried, but I couldn't find them, so I just assumed they are not publicly traded.
These are the kinds of problems you have as a complete noob in the stock market.
I still remember my first stock trading game, where I wanted to buy Sharp (the ones who build flatscreens - this was in the year 2000). I ended up "buying" a company called "Sharp" that produces furniture.
What is a good way to get around these problems?
- noahc 16y agoAdmittedly, it can be difficult to figure out a company symbol. But, I would expect you to be clued in before you bought it going through a due diligence processes. 1. Does the balance sheet make sense? Do industry and manufacturing companies have a lot of money tied up in capital expenses? 2. Most online finance websites show related companies. Does other technology and TV manufactures show up on the list? Do their competitors? 3. Does the price seem right? Are you trying to buy a hot new stock for $20 or $30 dollars a share, when no recent split occurred? Is the price <$10? As you research the company and dig in, I would expect SOMETHING to make you say, "that can't be right" along the way.
