Show Notes
One size doesn’t fit everyone. And there isn’t one type of investment. If you’re looking for that “just right investment” for your savings or a tax refund, we have quite a few options today that aren’t the stock market.
Money Talks recently got an email from a listener that said:
I've got 250k in a bank savings account that earned a whopping 54 bucks last year and 2.06 last month. I need to invest in “something” but I don't like the markets. Ideas?
This seems like an email that could take a whole show to answer, so we will take the whole show to give some options and see what our investment professionals think.
The two major U.S. financial securities markets are the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq.
In April 2007, the New York Stock Exchange merged with a European stock exchange known as Euronext to form what is currently NYSE Euronext. The American Stock Exchange (AMEX) previously the 3rd largest stock exchange, was acquired in 2008 by NYSE Euronext.
The NYSE is 3 times the size of the world’s 3rd largest stock exchange – Shanghai. Euronext and the Japan Exchange Group are next is size by market capitalization of listed companies.
