Title: New guy with a question... Post by: Sn00ky on October 11, 2008, 05:34:46 PM Hello everyone,
I'm new to EVERYTHING when it comes to stocks/bonds/etc. I might be in the wrong forum, but I will give it a shot. I am curious to what the difference between a stock and fund is. Reason being, I can't track the value of BGI Bond Index Fund, through Sunlife Financial Investments. I apoligize if I am in the wrong forum, if so, please let me know! Thanks everyone, good luck!!!

http://www.barclaysglobal.com/products/canada/db_funds/unit_prices.jhtml There are a number under "Canadian Fixed Income" Generally speaking, a fund is a bunch of positions but a stock represents one company. Does this help? Title: Re: New guy with a question... Post by: garilou on October 14, 2008, 01:32:00 AM Sn00ky, Do not apologize! If you are so new to investing, I guess you'll learn a lot here, and do good business with SSP's recommendations... as soon as the market corrects in the right direction. Until now, maybe stay prudent, very prudent! Welcome, Louise |
