First Answer :
Debit an account called investments and credit an account called Cash (or a payable)
Second Answer :
The first answer is referring to buying of Stocks (as in Shares like those listed on a Stock Exchange).
If you are thinking of stock such as raw materials of a business or stock for resale (- e.g. an electrical appliance store purchases TVs for resale therefore the TV is their stock) than there is actually NO DOUBLE ENTRY because there is NO SUCH THING as a STOCK ACCOUNT.
Stock is recorded using a physical record in and out. This gives rise to different stock valuation methods (FIFO, LIFO, AVERAGE).
Why is there no STOCK ACCOUNT in double-entry? Because you buy something for say £10, you will want to sell it for a higher price, say £15 to make a profit. If you have a Stock Account, it will not balance.
So how is "stock" recorded in your standard double-entry system?
"Stock" is actually recorded using 4 accounts:-
Increase in Stock
Purchases A/C
Return Inwards A/C
Decrease in Stock
Sales A/C
Return Outwards A/C
The balancing is done at the year end through your Profit and Loss A/C. The difference is your "Profit or Loss".

From my experience, the best way to learn about stock investment is talking to people. Talk to a friend or relative that invests in stock and ask them to explain the process. Track their stock and try to decide when you would sell or make changes. Have your friend/relative tell you what they're thinking throughout the way. Pretend to buy a stock before you actually buy one with real money.
