Investment was once something thought of as what rich people do.
Today, investing plays a key role in the financial well-being
of millions of Americans. The Securities Industry Association has stated,
“the growth in individual investor participation has risen from
30.2 million U.S. shareowners in 1980 to 84.3 million in 2002.”
According to a survey published by the Investment Company Institute and
the Securities Industry Association, the latter figure encompasses 49.5
percent of U.S. households. Yet, how many of these investors
really know the ropes when it comes to making the right investment
decisions? Woefully few, laments the Oregon Department of Consumer
& Business Services’ Division of Finance & Corporate
Securities, noting that, “Less than one-fifth of those [Americans,
who may or may not have been investors] polled passed a simple test asking
whether stocks, bonds, savings accounts or certificates of deposit offered
the best return over the last 20 years.”
So what can you do to avoid becoming financial fodder when it comes
to investing your money? As with any positive result, the proper
tools are essential. Investment portfolio management is the keystone in
any investment strategy, whether its goal is asset protection or
maximizing return on investment. We have referenced some excellent stock
chart and investment portfolio management software for your use. You
may also wish to join
Club EWI, which
will provide you with access to many investment articles and services
— for free.
While you often get what you pay for — especially when it comes to
investment software — we have been very pleasantly surprised by
Medved
QuoteTracker. Medved QuoteTracker software without a doubt
offers the best free stock charts and investment portfolio management
available! It is feature rich, reliable, and works with a wide
variety of stock market quote services, including proprietary quote
services offered by major brokerage firms. While the free version does
display advertisements, they are unobtrusive. Medved QuoteTracker
contains no pop-ups or spyware.
If you do not already have a market datafeed to receive stock market quotes,
you should try IQ Chart. With
their 30-day free trial offer, you can’t go wrong! IQ Chart’s
newest version is more powerful and easier-to-use than ever, with
significant improvements such as new market indicators, a more powerful
stock screener and enhanced stock charting. Following the free trial
period, IQ Chart is only $39.95 per month, a significant savings over
other similar stock charting products.
Whether you are simply looking for free stock market software or are
interested in a professional investment portfolio management package with
built-in stock market quotes, you owe it to yourself to check out both of
these fine products.
