I am looking to invest small amounts of money at possibly irregular
times. I understand that DRIPS may be the way to go. I like the idea
of researching my own stocks (making my own mistakes :)) , no broker's
fees as well as getting more and more educated about the market.
I know the basics of DRIPS, but have some questions:
1) research - Where to start. Is there a publication (online/print)
in which I can analyze companys' data like revenues,P/E ratios, P/S
ratios, historial dividend payments and such? I'd like to start
paring down the available companies and being able to look at the data
and doing my own reaearch is of greatest interest to me. What
publications would I use to do this?
2) In order to get enrolled in a company's DRIP program, I need to buy
my first share. How do I do this? Ameritrade, ETrade, etc or straight
from the company?? When I buy this first share, how do I enroll in the
company's DRIP program?
any thoughts, comments or other opinions is greatly appreciated!
