I recently invested in many stocks, including Nike, Macy's Inc, Google, Apple and Disney. For each stock I invested in I got 2,000 dollars to buy as many stocks as I could afford.
Two out of the five stocks went up in price per share. My biggest loss was surprisingly Google. I also lost a couple dollars in Macy's Inc and Disney. I think I mostly lost money in these two stocks because Google is a semi-risky stock to invest in, because you never know how many people will or won't use Google for there search engine. Most likely Disney's stock went down because it is winter and it is colder in Florida, so not many people will want to go to Florida when it's cold out.
Apple products are a big seller during Christmas time. That's probably why Apples stock went up. Nike is also a huge seller during the Christmas season. Mostly because of all the spiffy shoes that people like.
Overall I made a little profit with all my stocks. I was very happy in what I made and I was even happier in how much I learned. Hopefully now it will give me a better view on buying stocks when I get older.
