is it a good idea to have an investment brokerage account?
May 28th
I had a CD (a time savings account that accumulates interest overtime) through Wells Fargo. When that time account matured, the guy at the bank encouraged me to start an investment trade account used for brokerage and stocks etc.. which I have NO idea about. I just want to leave my money in a savings where I can make a certain amount of interest off of, but no one is telling me whats up with the whole trade investment account. It says “Not FDIC approved, No bank guarantee, may lose value,” it seems too good to be true because the interest im getting off of that account beats the CD time account I had before (doubled). I wanna know what’s the catch in having this account. Im not going to deal with the whole stocks and bonds thing, and I really don’t know too much about finance and investment accounts such as this. Can anyone please, please help me out????
Is e-currency trading still a good deal ?

E-Currency trading made a lot of money for some people a few years ago. Is it still a good deal ? I question the small returns and would like to talk to someone who has did (or is doing it) the actual system.
Is now a good time to invest in bonds due to decreasing interest rates?
May 25th
Obviously bonds are a relatively safe form of investment (particularly government bonds from one of the world’s major economies), but aside from this, what about the possibility of the value of bonds increasing?
With fears of recession looming, and deflation now a real possibility for the UK economy over the next couple of years, one could say that it is almost an inevitability that the BoE will further decrease interest rates. As bond prices are inversely proportional to interest rates, now would seem a logical time to invest in bonds, as it appears a safe bet the BoE will lower interest rates, which in turn will increase the value of bonds. Quite obviously, this rise in the value of bonds is of no benefit if the bonds are held till maturity. However, it would certainly appear to be advantageous to those willing to trade bonds. Is this train of thought correct?
Hi Robert M
Please correct me if I’m wrong, but if the bonds are held till maturity, the coupon (for fixed rate bonds) and principle payments are still the same, irrespective of whether or not the bond value (for trading) fluctuates. Therefore, if the bonds are held till maturity, the bond holder does not realise any benefit if the value of the bonds increase.
