In an unstable market it’s always a good thing to make sure that you have a diversified portfolio.   That way if something takes a dive you don’t lose all of your money - just a portion of it.

Margot got her distribution check a few months ago and put it into her mutual fund and some into individual stocks.    We’re constantly looking for stocks that are going to take off and be the next Microsoft.    Too bad we don’t have any insider information!

One thing we might look into is to trade stock options.   OEX online offers trading of stock options.   They also offer a great mentoring program for people that are new to stock option trading, like us!
