Are you holding stocks?

Post by Eldorado »

I thought, that maybe many of you are holding stocks, because many people who are interested in money are interested other financial things.
So I thought of asking you.

If you have some, I would be pleased to here which ones or maybe you made some experiences you can tell.

Please excuse my bad english!

I don't, mostly because I don't have enough money to put a large sum aside.

Thank you, but could one of you who voted for yes write which ones he owned and if it was good to buy them?

I confess, I voted yes. I can truly say that all stocks are just great. The difficulty is to buy and sell at the right time.

I voted for "yes", but I'm not really trading with them any more (too busy with EBT-ing).

Just keeping them and collecting the distribution of dividends. :wink:

@eddydevries

Which ones do you have?

I´m asking you because, I bought my first stocks in April (apple - good choice!)! So I don´t know much about it. I would be very pleased if you tell me which ones you have.

I voted YES.
I have some Millenium BCP (a portuguese bank), and if you have money in this moment is a good choice, because they're really low at this moment (so I'm loosing some money at this moment). Oh, and I have some stocks of Futebol Club do Porto (Portuguese Champion) and one of the greatest in Europe :D
But, I like mostly the traditional ways of saving, guaranted by the State (like Certificados de Aforro)

The only real stocks I have, are those I got of the company I work (Grontmij).

But the most I have are participations of some funds (of ABNAMRO).
