What Every Intelligent Investor Should Know
Updated: 9/29/2008 4:00:12 PM
 
(ARA) - You've had some success with your online brokerage account, but the game is changing fast these days. In this economy, you just can't afford to lose money taking guesses with your investments. You suspect you would feel more confident about your online investing if you had better tools and better knowledge about how to use them.

You're probably right. After all, knowledge is power - witness the growth of online investing tools that have enabled your generation of tech-savvy investors to take charge of your financial destiny. Yet the economy and the market are in constant flux, and it seems no investment is small. Few of us can afford to lose; it's more important than ever to have better tools and cutting-edge knowledge.

It's easy enough to begin trading online these days; Barron's recently reviewed 23 online brokerages that give you full access to the wonderful world of trading through browser-based systems or their own proprietary software. In fact, the Barron's report found that more people than ever are trading online. The average online brokerage surveyed by the financial media giant reported 20 percent more trades in 2007 than in 2006.

You may know Options and FX are hot categories, but if you think the first refers to upgrades for your new car and the latter applies to movie special effects, then you probably could use some education. If you know just enough to know you need to learn more, then an investing course can have a significant impact on your investing success. But how do you know what to look for when evaluating online information or educational offerings? Credible education should:

* Address your specific level of expertise.
* Provide a plan for streamlining the stock evaluation and selection process.
* Offer a workable formula that you can live with.
* Teach you how to make decisions based on facts, not emotions.
* Illuminate the best use of available online tools.

Investools, a leader in online brokerage services, offers an Investing Foundation Course designed to teach basic principles that every intelligent investor should know, including how best to use the Web-based tools that have revolutionized investing. The course teaches both experienced and beginner investors how to streamline stock selection and actively manage their investment portfolios.

Course participants enjoy six months free access to the Investor Toolbox and online course, and a live 2-day workshop. A live 2-hour preview seminar tours the country to demonstrate the course and tools, so you can sample the value before you commit.


By providing online investors with professional-level educational services and online investing tools, Investools has created a Web-based community around investment education. Visit www.investools.com to find a preview seminar near you, or watch an introductory video and enroll in the Investing Foundation Course. In this economy, what you don’t know about investing can hurt you. The right kind of knowledge and tools can mean the difference between successful investing and parting ways with money you just can’t afford to lose.
