Question
I have $500 to put into the share market but am not sure where to put it.
I was think about putting $300 of it in AMP, as it was at $23, then fell to $4 and now is back at $7. Are we expecting it to get back to $23?

i was thinking of putting the other $200 in a more riskyer business which will probably take off, making its share price increase quickly but not sure where to put it. Can you please Help me.

Answer
Buying indivdual stocks is not what I would recommend. I would always recommend that people have enough money to buy 100 shares of at least 10 different companies. I would recommend that you look over the mutual funds on the free site of http://wfnn.info -the section for mutual funds.

Mutual funds only for you.
