Stock Market Nuggets

[Olatunde Akanbi]

The stock market is not an investment you go into with excitement or hype.

It is not something you enter simply to “catch out” and make quick money.

It is not something you should enter without proper due diligence and, where necessary, professional guidance.

And it is certainly not a get-rich-quick scheme.

Stock investing requires patience, knowledge, discipline and a long-term mindset.

Some stocks will rise significantly.

Some will fall significantly.

That's the reality of the market.

Invest wisely.
Do your research.
Understand what you're buying.

5 PENNY STOCKS YOU SHOULDN’T PUT YOUR MONEY INTO IN THE NIGERIAN STOCK MARKET

Just because a stock is cheap does NOT mean it is a good investment.

This is one mistake I see many new investors make.

They see a stock trading at ₦2, ₦5 or ₦10 and think:

“Let me buy plenty units. If this thing gets to ₦50, I will make serious money.”

But investing is not about how many shares you can buy.

It is about the quality of the business behind the shares.

Before you put your money into any penny stock, watch out for these 5 things:

1. Companies with consistently weak financial performance.

2. Businesses that keep reporting losses without a clear path to recovery.

3. Stocks with very low liquidity where you may struggle to sell when you need your money.

4. Companies carrying excessive debt compared with their ability to generate profits.

5. Stocks whose price is moving mainly because of hype, rumours and social media noise rather than strong business fundamentals.

A ₦3 stock can fall to ₦1.

A ₦50 stock can also fall to ₦20.

The price of a share does not tell you whether the company is cheap or expensive.

Before you buy any stock, LOOK BEYOND THE SHARE PRICE.

Study the business.

Study the financial statements.

Study the debt.

Study the earnings.

Study the future of the company.

Because your money deserves more than “I heard this stock will soon blow.”
