& Stock Picking Direct share purchases can be made via a bank or
stockbroker. These give the investors certain rights and a share
of the company's profit, paid out in the form of a dividend. In
theory, as the company grows and increases its profitability, share
values rise and offer the investor a potential capital gain.
Shares are classed as higher risk investments:
the reward in terms of the dividend and capital growth can be significantly
greater than cash but the capacity for loss is also significantly
greater.
When stock picking, blue chip shares should be considered,
as they are regarded to be the more financially sound among the
public limited companies, which are listed on the international
world markets.
