Madam, I kind of feel you enthusiasm towards trading stocks. I have a few questions if you don't mind. Is stock trading profitable like doing just that full time can pay your bill's? Like what is your average ROI per year? Are you more of a technical analyst or a fundamental analyst? You sound like a day treader and a scalper combined.

l do not trade for a living just that my biz is flexible enough to allow me monitor market especially now that l don't want to carry last.l HV been an investor over a decade.l HV been buying stock when l have to buy newspapers to see price movement.
It looks m excited BC l do a whole lot by myself unlike those days l shoot in d dark.
I HV honestly grown my investment reasonably
When l was employed l send money to my broker every month for shares for those years l Neva withdrew l kept invest till 2018 bull runs l sold everything
It was a big hit for me ( relative)

I do not trade for a living just making Case for people that do that.
I am a biz woman.

It is good to start small and grow. I started with just N5000 way back.

Investment One

Morgan Capital

The listed Stockbrokers will consider small Investors, with N20,000 you are good to go.

Thanks for this recommendation, sir.

Do you mind recommending a good stock yo buy?

emmanuelewumi:



To enjoy stock trading you must have multiple streams of income, you need patience and staying. Cash flow gives the stay power and peace of mind, I have about 60 stocks in my portfolio the biggest stock in my portfolio is Zenith and will give a modest dividend of over 600k only in March. The smallest stock in my portfolio is Vitafoam and will give a dividend of N11k only in March.

I buy almost every month, money from my business, interest from Treasury Bills , money market funds, rental income are ploghed back into the stock market, divends from the stock market are used to buy Treasury Bills , Bonds.

The Investments are structured in such a way that money, no matter how small money must drop.

As a matter of fact someone like me love the bear market, because that is when I accumulate and get stocks at ridiculously cheap prices.

60 stocks? Chai
I understand u now

Which k recycled investment be this? TB gives birth to stock... Stock gives birth to TB.

How are you able to know what dividends you go get later in the year. Me, na until they send cheque or I check my I de know wertin I suppose get.

Treasury Bill and money market funds interests go into stock, dividend from stocks go into bonds, Treasury Bills. Profit made from stock appreciation are Invested in defensive stocks, REITs, business expansion etc.

There is a problem if you need to sell your assets or Investments before you can have money to venture into another money making enterprise, that is why I always talk about cash flow.

You can have an idea of dividend based on historical performance and monitoring of financial report of companies. You can do this about 95% accuracy

I understood you the first time. That was my own way of standing awe of your strategy.

Okay for that. It's an estimate then, but you would have to see the financial report first, right?

Company send their reports to the investing public every quarter, we are all aware of the companies performance as at September 2019, by the end of the month and February the result as at December 2019 will be made public.

You are doing it the right way by buying the market rather than speculating on the market, and rely on your time in the market rather than timing the market.


That's what I plan to do but it'll be with foreign ETFs.. total stock, bond , dividend ETFs and a few selection of stocks local and foreign .

Earn 15 percent today lose 12 tomorrow ain't my perogative.

I enjoy a bit of the euphoria of risk and return though , I won't mind playing with a max of 50 k for fun

Could you please explain more? Thanks

emmanuelewumi:


No, but it is possible to get 11% per annum, those promising you 15% in 6 months might end up having issues

henifri:
Could you please explain more? Thanks

Any business that can't give a return of 10% is not worth venturing into, the 10% should take care of your sweat, stress, labour and risk

Na Kobo Kobo stocks, the number of stocks doesn't matter.

@emma, you are pulling my legs out into stocks anyways I love ur investment pattern, I will dedicate my free 50k every month to picking stocks. First of all, I have three questions:
(1) How do I get these companies reports even if its e-copy
(2) I have some shares with fidelity, could it was first bank that sold them. Does that mean they are my brokers or just agents? Becos even the e-dividends registration I did it tru then
(3) In your opinion, as a newbie which brokers do you recommend?

Sir, I'll love to be like you when I grow up. Not until then, I'll be monitoring the day-to-day activities on NSE. I knew nothing about stocks prior to August 2019, but now, with the help of your selfless contribution and other gurus on NSEMPA, I've been able to learn and gain a lot.

My strategy, for now, is short/mid-term investing. And my focus is on capital appreciation for now. Not until I hit a certain target, no attention will be given to dividend yield but it's part of my long term investment goals. I've been able to grow my capital in NSE(both trading balance and portfolio balance) by 50% in just 5 months with plenty of room for growth.

Thanks for sharing your wealth of experience on this thread and NSEMPA!

Good to make the best use of any situation we find ourselves in. The CBN policy on Treasury Bills made you to put on your thinking cap and you have learnt how to create another stream of income, I must confess you a fast learner nobody will believe you have spent less than a year in the capital market

Always to keep part of your profit in money market funds or bonds

I also do short term speculative trades when the signals are right. I do this when the market is generally bullish and do a round trip twice or thrice in a year.



I borrow from my stock broker against my holdings and use such loans to speculate. I when i got a loan and bought N10 million worth of Wema bank shares at N2 and sold at N2.80k within 4 months and paid interest of about 700k and pocketed profit of N3 million and 100,000 units of Wema bank shares left in my portfolio. That was in the good old days of 2006 to 2008 bull run.

My broker marketed such loans to me in November but I refused, those who obliged have made a kill in UACN

Newbies should not try this

Thank you, sir. In fact, I've only been investing in MMF, with re-investment of interest option, since 2018 and never did treasury bill because I've always felt they are almost the same if one chose interest re-investment option in MMF. When I diversified to stocks in August last year, I only went in with 20% of my funds while I allow the rest to continue to enjoy slow but steady growth in MMF.

Akingbola sold a dummy to Sanni Dangote. N10 billion is chicken change to Sanni.


I knew Intercontinental had issues, when the bank made a policy that customers should have a minimum of 10k in their s. Ten thousand multiplied by 2 million customers. That is N20 billion which was a lot of money in 2007

It is not every stock broker that have the financial muscles for this. Between 2006 and 2008, I got loans from FBN Capital.


In November 2019, FSDH Merchant Bank offered " Asset backed lending" facilities to customers.

UACN was one of the recommended stocks, a guy bought N20 million worth at around N5 last year
