Stock Market for Beginners Video – Scavenger Hunt

In the video we watched, Nate O’Brien covered a lot of topics related to getting started investing in the stock market.  With a partner, look for the following items and/or answer the questions.  You can rely on what you remember from watching the video or look the information up online.

  1. In your own words, what is a stock and what is the purpose of companies offering shares of stock?
  2. O’Brien held a copy of The Intelligent Investor, which was also a guide used by Warren Buffett. Look this book up on Amazon or elsewhere and list the author, give a brief description of it and tell what kind of reviews it receives.
  3. Describe the following: Index Fund, IRA, 401K, Mutual Fund, ETF
  4. What is dollar cost averaging and why is it used?
  5. What is the Standard and Poor (S & P) 500 and how is it used by investors?
  6. Look up the following online and describe what it takes to get started investing with each one: M1, Robinhood, TD Ameritrade, E Trade, Charles Schwab
  7. What is a dividend? What are pros and cons of dividends?
  8. What is the difference between Fundamental Analysis and Technical Analysis? Why does O’Brien recommend most investors focus on Fundamental instead of Technical?
  9. What are some ways an investor can research a company prior to buying its stock?
  10. Discuss the concept of “risk vs reward” and explain how it needs to be followed by average investors.

Here is a link to the YouTube video if you want to pursue it further.  I am not an endorser of O’Brien or any of the services or stocks discussed here.  I am only presenting this as a way for students to get some starting information about stocks and investing:
