Making money applying for new issues This is
the favorite method of investment for many investors and traders. They
will wait till a new issue comes in the market and will apply for the
same. Most of the new issues are issued when the market is bullish. When
bulls dominate the market will have many good new issues. Here also we
see different investment strategies employed. For example some people
will apply for new issues and once they receive an allotment they will
make an exit from the market selling the allotments at the higher price.
Usually good new issues will see the market reacting positively to the
allotments and there will be many investors lining up to buy them at a
price higher than the allotted price.
Next method is buying the new issues once they are listed in
the market. This will give you a fair idea about how the market is
reacting to the share. We see this kind of investors in the market when
we have good public new issues coming to the market.
There are some risks associated with this kind of investing.
You have to be careful about the investment you make. People do lose a
lot of money here too. You have to carefully go through the prospectus,
before you buy the shares.
Investing for Dividend. This is
another option many long term investors employ in the market. They do
not look for capital appreciation;rather they would be happy to receive
the dividends from their investments. Dividends are the share of profit
announced by the companies to be distributed among the share holders on
the basis of the shares they hold. There are certain companies that give
excellent dividends on investments.
Capital appreciation
This is another way of making money from stock market. These
investors would buy shares with an aim to make money from the capital
appreciation. For example you buy 500 shares of 100 each and sell after
6 months at 150 per share and make a cool 25000. The amount earned from
selling the stocks ie 25000 is the capital appreciation. You have to be
careful in choosing the shares here because,number of factors affect
the price of a share.
Tradingof shares. Buying and selling.
This is the most active and risky business to make money.
Here you keep on buying and selling inside a day. Here you buy shares
that are moving every day. If a share moves up and down on a consistent
basis then it is your pick. You can buy them when the rates are lower
and sell them when they reach high. You can buy again after the shares
come down. This is one trading that requires a great knowledge about the
shares that is traded. You must be sure about the potential of the stock
before buying and selling the share.
