We have become a society that trades frequently. Investors often act on every tick in the market without good reason. And that has a major downside.
Often I would go back to my computer and there would be so many items in my in-box that I would be unable to send an e-mail until I deleted them.
I was a Girl Scout and I loved being a Girl Scout. I learned so much as a Girl Scout and I used to sell cookies and it was really fun.
Investors need to recognize that not every analyst is dishonest but there are potential conflict-of-interest issues to be aware of.
I'm frequently on the Internet, digging up information about companies and checking the activities of particular stocks and industry sectors.
Individual investors have become far more powerful than anyone gives them credit for. Today, 85 million Americans invest in stocks. Collectively, that kind of buying and selling power can move markets.

As a reporter, I approach every situation knowing that everyone has his or her own agenda. It's not a bad thing; it's just a fact.
Most women outlive their spouses. Divorce remains at record rates. Its important for a woman to be able to control her finances.
A lot of people love Oreos. So their manufacturer is making money. That means more dividends for shareholders.
I think that my biggest attribute to any success that I have had is hard work. There really is no substitute for working hard.
The institutional investor remains the bigger influence on individual trades simply because the institutional investor has more money to support the order and that will have more of an impact on the stock.
The average trade of an individual is in the thousands of shares, whereas the institutional trade can be in the millions of shares. Clearly, the bigger the order, the bigger the move in the stock.
Successful people are always thinking about what they can do to move to the next level. Initiative is the drive to do it - to take the first step, and then the next step. The great thing about initiative - is that it's free and available to everyone.
