Can anyone point me in the right direction? I am a newbie trying to overcome my fears and finally get involved with the stock market. I put my money in banks but the accts only gain like 0.05% interest. That is no money at all! I just feel financially illiterate. I should be getting a refund this year, so I wanted to put some of that towards getting my feet wet in the stock market, If anyone could help and point me in the right direction that would be great!

1st post papi
Calling the top is usually a bad bet.
The market can remain irrational longer than we can remain solvent.
It seems there's a lot of newbies interested in entering the market, which is one of the greatest indicators of a top forming.
The greater fool theory at its finest. Wait until there's a little blood in the water before you buy puts / short futures.

check the 1st post like base mod said there. You want to learn as much as possible before getting your feet wet. Depending on your goals for that money, i'd probably suggest an ETF index fund of the S&P 500 or something along those lines.Haven't been following the NT simulation as much. Comcast made a split? I'm down 10k lol. Oh well still hoping UA bounces back

Interesting that DISH got so many new subscribers last year. Wonder if it was because of the SLING

yep, np! the app is kinda confusing...but it has nice quick readout of what you're probably gonna be looking at: performance & history.
I myself set it up so that i contribute $15 automatically every friday....i try to time it with my paycheck. so out of sight, out of mind. it really is working ...seeing that i get change deposited almost daily to that account starts to stack up. good luck!
