Knowing all this can someone

There's a lot to know, but you've hit on a few of the basic. "$ Last Trade" is the price at which the last trade was made. A trade being someone selling stock to someone else. It's basically the "going price" of a share of stock. Volume is the number of shares that traded hands during the day. Change (%, and $) is the change between yesterday's closing price and the current price ($ Last Trade). I'm not sure if your "-" is a dash or a negative sign. Below, I've assumed it's a negative sign. If it's a dash, then change my "loss" to "gain." In this case, the current price is $27.87. When the market closed last night, the price was $27.87 + $0.12 or $27.99. If you bought at the closing price ($27.99) and then sold right now ($27.87), you'd have lost 12 cents per share. If you had 100 shares, you'd have lost $12 plus commissions paid to your broker. Keep in mind that "last trade" is not necessarily the price you'll get for buying or selling. Price fluctuates (more so on certain stocks than others). Plus, the information is usually at least 20 minutes old. |

The simple answer is - it can't. You've heard of the global economy. Well there is also a global stock market. What affects the largest stock market (and economy) in the world, also affects other stock markets. But when the u.s. market goes up, it likely also helps the S Korean market. I recall in the 90's, the Korean economy had a meltdown. This affected other asian economies & took down asian markets. The u.s. market also went down in sympathy with other markets. It would be nice if political events & economic events (in other parts of the world) did not affect one's local market. But in truth, it just doesn't work that way. |

Was the American stock market One of the reasons I asked was
also because I'm still a
rookie at investing and wanted
to hear some opinions. I'm as
green as can be when it comes
to stock market investing, and
I understand people lost lots
of money, but is the drop
really a reason to be nervous?
I understand it's a sign there
might be a change in the
lending market, but is this a
reason to be nervous about
investing in the stock market
or to start trading all your
stocks? I mean it's not like
the America is an unstable
country. It's no reason to
start pulling all of your
money out of the stock market,
right? This is a proven market
that should stabilize itself
in a while, no? Is this just
an opportunity to buy cheap
stocks?
Chime in on the stock market
plunge?

There certainly is reason to believe that stocks might get cheaper still. America is not so stable as you might have imagined. It is fueled by debt. Now that debt has become shall we say unstable, the fuel supply might be facing an interruption. This might just be the beginning. On the plus side most corporations are fairly healthy and stock valuations are not out of line with reality. But none of that will really matter all that much if people stop spending, which there are indications that they are. |
