I have $3,000 that I want to invest. Which stocks would you recommend I invest in if I want to make a quick return on my investment?

Hey, consider doing some research on Vaccinex (it's a US company dedicated to treating neurodegenerative diseases). Honestly, they're a top pick in the health industry as their approach is really innovative.

If you're a newbie, I'd honestly recommend sticking to popular investors' opinions and strategies. These dudes have been in the field for many years and know what they're doing. Check out Buffet's "Value Investing".

Also, take a peek at the sec.gov website (it's the US Securities and Exchange Commission); they have a huge database (I think it's called EDGAR) where you have free info about all foreign and domestic US companies.

Start out with simple apps like Robinhood (try Webull or TradeStation if you're having problems with Robinhood), you can get a fraction of a share for a really low price & acceptable commissions.

Be EXTREMELY cautious about anyone promising a quick return on the stock markets. No one truly knows whether a stock will make a profit or not, so do your research.

But if you're looking for short-term investments, you are probably looking for a safe place to put your money before you access it(SOON).

Short-term investments mainly offer safety and are those you make in less than three years, but safety comes at a cost.

The return on investment is lower compared to long-term investment and limit you to certain types of investments.

However, short-term investments are also advantageous. They are less risky and highly liquid, so you can get your money whenever you want.

Examples of short-term investments are; savings accounts, money market accounts, short-term corporate bonds, cash management account, certificates of deposits, Treasurys, and short-term government bonds.

If you want to make short-term profits, you should try to take advantage of current trends and innovations. Many investors focus on well-known and established companies such as Microsoft or Amazon. Of course, these companies also usually make good profits. However, they are of little use for quick and short-term success. Interesting for quick and effective price gains are usually companies that go public with new ideas or just follow an economic trend. Examples of this are renewable energy, alternative means of transport and the like.

In any case, you should try to find companies that are relatively new to the market and are active in such areas. But of course, a thorough review of the companies, their financial situation and the long-term feasible goals should be made before a possible investment.

The real problem is that these companies, which are often largely unknown, are difficult to find in the large selection on the stock exchanges.

Investing in Stocks can be very risky on a short term but doing thorough research and seeking experts advice will do you a great advantage. Tech stocks are booming since the beginning of 2020 with the outbreak of the pandemic and most of them are going through a pullback phase at the moment. Investing in tech stocks for the next 3-6 months won't be a bad idea as they can make you a quick profit on a short term.

TESLA and ZOOM are going to be my best pick for this short term investment. I would advise you split the money you have into two, probably 40% of the fund on TESLA and 60% on ZOOM. You should be looking at 50 - 80% increase in the next few months on these stocks as they are both tech stocks and preparing to resume the uptrend that they have been since the beginning of last year.

It is advisable to do your own thorough research before investing your fund on these stocks because they can be quite risky. Be ready to hold for at least 3 months once you buy because market can be very irrational sometimes before the big move happen. Trust your analysis and don't get emotional with the market fluctuations.

One of the basic goals of every broker is, of course, to achieve the highest possible profits within a short period of time. To achieve this, he needs above all shares that post very large price gains within a very short time.

Most shares increase in value within a short period of time, especially when there is positive news about the company or its products. But this is exactly where the problem lies, because often the news only reaches the broker when the price has already risen. Share traders must therefore be very familiar with the respective companies and be able to assess whether the respective share has the potential for future price jumps. In general, it is not necessarily the share that is decisive, but above all the stockbroker's knowledge of the respective company's goals and plans. Otherwise, future-oriented companies in the fields of energy production, space travel or alternative transport can prove to be particularly interesting.
