The stocks that you have currently being traded are assets and are not liquid, just like a house would be an asset that appreciates but is not considered cash-in-hand. If the asset remains in a non-liquid form but increases in value, even if it's traded, this should not affect unemployment insurance benefits. Capital gains occur when the stock is sold for a higher price than what it was originally purchased for and does become liquid, i.e. becomes cash-in-hand. Capital gains do have to be reported to the IRS and are taxed. If the capital gain is liquidated (sold), such may be considered as income that may affect unemployment insurance benefits dollar-to-dollar, but to make absolutely sure that the investment liquidation is privy to a reduction in benefits, I would call your local ESC office. I could not find anything in WA's ESC laws that state, specifically, the relationship between capital gains and unemployment compensation...then again, more than likely, not many people have this issue. At any rate, again, I would call the local ESC and I would think about calling your CPA to discuss the difference between how each are reported at the end of the year.

Stocks! With more workers than ever depending on 401(k)s and other self-directed plans for their retirement, investors have a lot at stake when it comes to optimizing their portfolio.

Databases/directories of corporate changes can also be useful in determining the value of your shares. Reasonably priced databases and those available to the public that is. Most local business libraries could help you out.The next step is then to contact either the transfer agent (found on the stock certificate) just google the name and you should have a number to call. They will have all information as to what happened to the company, if anything was left for investors etc.. if by any chance the companies transfer agent has also gone by the wind.

The state will be able to determine for you when the companies charter was cancelled although will not be able to tell you if any dividends or other capital payments were left for investors.

In all I would go with professional help, a broker or other financial advisor can help. Or you can go with a online research firm to evaluate your companies position. I founded a site last year to break competition in the space, we offer the lowest price and the most comprehensive research.

When it was first published in the late 1890s, the index stood at a level of 40.94, but ended up hitting its all-time low of 28.48 during the summer of 1896 during the depths of what later became known as the Panic of 1896.

It is a trade-off of risk vs return.

Money in the bank is generally considered risk free. (At least when the amount is small enough to be covered by a government deposit guarantee - most Western nations offer one, don't know about the rest of the world - so you keep your money even if the bank collapses. In USA the limit is currently $250,000 per depositor.)

Money in the bank is considered safe, but you get a relatively low return (fixed interest) on deposits. Investing in the stock market has the potential for much higher returns, but it also carries a risk of losing money.

This is a fairly fundamental economic law: Risk and return are inversely correlated - higher returns carry more risk. This is because the only way to get investors to risk their money - for example by investing in a startup company, with a 90% risk that the company won't survive a year - is to tempt investors with the potential for a higher return than they can get by putting the money in the bank. High returns with no risk is essentially not possible, as it would amount to "money for nothing". The higher returns associated with higher risk is the "risk premium" investors demand for risking their money.

A professional investor specializing on startups will manage the risk by investing in maybe 100 startups: Perhaps 90 of the 100 will be a total loss, 9 will do OK, and one will do very well. The investor essentially bets that he/she will make enough money on the 10 companies that survive to cover the losses on those that didn't, plus some extra profit.

Investors needs to decide for themselves how much risk they are willing to take for how much potential return, and how they want to manage the risk.

Standard investment advice is to put some part of your savings in high-risk, high-return assets like stocks and some part in low-risk, low-return assets like government bonds. The part at risk should not be bigger than you can afford to lose.

Other standard risk management advice includes diversification, spreading investments over several different areas so that potential losses in one can be offset with gains in another.

In short, investing in the stock market promises higher return in the long run for

* a higher risk

* more time and effort in selecting investment candidates

* more time and effort in picking risk management strategies

and equity sharing have broad meanings, but given the chosen categories by the author, it is presumed that the meaning can be narrowed to what is commonly called "home equity sharing " in the US or "shared equity schemes" in the UK. In these cases, the meaning is limited to residential real estate. With that context, here are a couple of definitions to answer the question:

Equity : The equity in a home is what the home owner would expect to take away with a sale of the home. The simplest calculation would be the current value of the home minus the outstanding mortgage, which is owed to the lender.

Equity Share: Equity sharing is a way for a home buyer and an investor to jointly buy property and share ownership. Typically the home buyer has exclusive occupancy rights and takes care of the ongoing financial obligations (mortgage, taxes, insurance, etc.). The investor normally is a passive participant. There are both public and private applications of equity sharing. In the public applications a local government body may act as the "investor" with a primary goal of making the property perpetually affordable for the current and subsequent owner. In such cases, the sale price of the property is purposely limited so that the next owner is aided also. In private applications, the investor is motivated (like the home buyer) by the appreciation of the property value. In that case, there is no price limit for the sale of the home.

Because the game is delayed slightly, about a minuite or two, you get the real time quote of a large company from google (in real time) you wait for the stock to start to rise, than immidiately buy about 500-1000 shares of that stock in the game. Watch the real time quote and when you see it peak and start to decline, wait for it to hit the peak in the game than short sell it.

A balanced investment portfolio would include both stocks and bonds as well as cash and mutual fund. The mix would depend on your investment objectives and tolerence for risk. If you had to pick just one investment, it would depend on how liquid you want your funds and how much risk you are willing to take. Stocks are riskier and therefore give a higher expected return in the long term. Also it is important to take into consideration your stage in life, older folks, with little income, should stay conservative and stick to bonds, while younger people can assume more risk.

The stock market crashes because of the existing economic events coupled with crowd behavior and psychology in which people prefers to sell. (Wikipedia) Generally the causes why crashes occurs in stock markets are:

2. Excessive economic optimism

3. P/E ratios exceeded long-term averages

4. extensive use of margin debt and leverage by the market participants

The prime time day trading hours are between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM and between 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM. When the market opens at 9:30 AM, there is a lot of volatility during the first half hour of trading and it become difficult to determine the general direction things are moving. At around 10 AM, when the dust begins to settle, there is usually a better indication of the morning trend of commodities in general. Between 12 PM and 2 PM EST, many traders and other market participants are out to lunch and trading slows down quite a bit. Consequently, it is usually a good idea not to initiate new trades during this time. Around 2 PM EST, trading activity starts picking up again and builds up until the close.
