What direct costs buyers and sellers of the securities would incur when buying and selling?
Q. I need an explanation on what direct costs buyers and sellers of the securities (e.g. bonds, options, and shares) would incur in buying or selling of these securities? Hope this question be answered entirely. Thanks.

A. In trading, there are explicit (direct) and implicit (indirect) trading costs. Direct costs are readily discernible and include commissions, taxes, stamp duties, and fees. Implicit costs cannot be measured easily, but are real. They include the bid-ask spread, market or price impact costs, opportunity costs, and delay costs (slippage costs).

Where do you take exams for insurance and securities licensing?
Q. I was hoping to take the licensing to sell insurance and securities. I was wondering where to go for information.
Asked by Amanda T - Wed Aug 1 21:55:52 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. You would need an NASD series 7 and 66 (63 if you dont want to do RIA work), in order to sit for the tests, you would need to be sponsored by a member firm (hired by a brokerage firm). Once employed, you would have minimum monthly production requirments to meet or risk termination. The NASD establishes the testing sites, when you are ready to sit for one of them, contact the firm you are employed by, the registrations department will open a "window" (90 day period) for you to take the test, and an 800 number to call to find a local testing site and schedule a time. Insurance licensing is handled by the individual state you reside in. Check your state's website. Go to the Insurance area, and check on the producer & licensing services… [cont.]

Asked by bcyouletme - Sun Jun 15 21:56:13 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. There are some trivial listing requirements differences, but they all have to have their SEC paperwork up to date. Most companies on either could qualify for the other, so it's really a choice for companies. Older companies tend to be listed on the NYSE because NASDAQ didn't exist when they were looking for an exchange listing and the NYSE makes it hard for companies to leave.

A. One of the keys to reducing overall portfolio risk is buying investments that don't move the same direction at the same time. By having some things moving up while others are moving down, the volatility in the portfolio is much less, but the same long-term returns are still achieved. Although stocks in different countries are somewhat related (e.g. a huge drop in the US market can cause a drop in the UK market), they are not directly related, so for example Brazil's market could be going up while Germany's is going down. As a result, investing in stocks outside one's own country does have a risk-reducing effect on an overall portfolio.

A. Residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) are a type of bond commonly issued in American security markets. They are a type of Mortgage-backed security which are backed by mortgages on residential rather than commercial real estate. A type of security whose cash flows come from residential debt such as mortgages, home-equity loans and subprime mortgages. This is a type of mortgage-backed securities that focuses on residential instead of commercial debt. Holders of an RMBS receive interest and principal payments that come from the holders of the residential debt. The RMBS comprises a large amount of pooled residential mortgages.

On which Treasury Securities do the interests of which become non taxable interest?
Q. I want to invest in Securities but I don't want my earnings therefrom to affect my tax bracket.
Asked by Chuy M - Wed Jul 25 18:25:39 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The interest on ALL Treasury securities is taxable at the federal level. (State can not tax the interest on Treasuries.) The interest on municipal bonds is not taxable by the federal government and is not taxable in the state in which they were issued. Out of state municipal bond interest is taxed by the states (if they have a state income tax). Generally buying municipal bonds only makes sense if your federal tax bracket is 25% or more. You can earn 5+% in US Treasuries, which after tax offers a 3.75+% yield. Many municipal bonds of the same maturity pay 3.75% or less.
