You may own stock in a corporation at birth. The stock may be transferred in your name the same day your birth certificate is filled out. It is not necessary to actually have a birth certificate to own stock.

How old you must be to purchase stock on your own depends upon how old you are when you learn to speak and have acquired the necessary capital. You may purchase penny stocks for next to nothing, though you may be required to obtain the consent of a parent or guardian to make such an investment.

My daughters invested in mutual funds before they were seven years old.
