I was wondering if people on CAG actually do any regular investing. I read through a post from April of this year, but it wasn't what I was looking for. IE what are you guys investing in? I am not looking for stock tips. I am looking for how you pick the stocks. Do you just grab up penny stocks (less than $5), or find a good P/E ratio or P/S ratio? Or find a good business model? How about good video game companys? EA/Sony/Microsoft?
Also what are your thoughts about Index Funds. I have done a lot of research into them and they look like the best safe investment. They average 2.5% annual return better than 99% of the mutual funds out there.
So you know my investment background. I just bought a $170 K house last month, and have a few thousand to invest in the long term. I'm trying to make a better return on my money then my mortgage's interest rate 7 %.
