Ortigas Foundation Library, Ortigas Center, Pasig City View mapHow would you like to invest in the next Facebook? Or the next Apple? Maybe the next Google or Starbucks? Investing in the U.S. stock market, particularly the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ, offers a whole new world of investment opportunities. No other international financial market comes close to the size, accessibility, transparency, and liquidity of the U.S. stock markets.
Wouldn’t you love to invest in or trade the stocks of some of the world’s most famous brands like Nike, Amazon, The Coca-Cola Company, McDonald’s, Time Warner, and Citigroup? The U.S. is also home to hundreds of innovative startups that could potentially make their founders — and investors (like you) — rich.
The U.S. stock market is on a bull run for the last five years. As measured by the S&P 500, U.S. stocks have generated total returns of 233%. Although some say U.S. stocks are pricey, others also note that there is still room for growth.
