How To Buy Stocks Directly From Companies
ShareBuilder.com is the Internet's premiere
site for Direct Investment and Dividend Re-Investment Plans
("DRIPs"), with over 1600 plans listed. By investing
directly, you buy stocks directly from blue-chip companies, and
cut out the brokers and their fees. It's the perfect site for
people with a "buy-and-hold" philosophy (such a philosophy isn't for everyone,
but it does avoid burning a lot of money on broker fees.) At this site, you can
research stocks and enroll in direct stock-buying programs on the
Web.
This site's 100,000 registered users get a lot for their
money:
- View "Plan Summary" pages, showing minimum and maximum
investments, plan features and fees.
- Buy fractions of shares, rather than a minimum purchase of
100 shares.
- Automatically invest money from checking accounts,
without having to place an order.
- No account or investment minimums.
- Dollar based investing: Pick the dollar amount you want to invest in
every week or month in the 2,000 largest stocks and index funds on the NYSE
and NASDAQ exchanges.
- Online everything: account statements, confirmations and notifications.
- Low transaction fees: $4 per recurring transaction, or $12 for
"All You Can Build".
