investing in stocks education
Quick understanding of mutual funds and 401K?
This might be very basic knowledge, but I’ve never quite understood my 401K plan. I basically turn my money over to someone with more education in stocks than I have. He takes all the money from all the 401K people and buys various shares of various companies.
Here is the part I don’t get. Lets say I stopped investing in my 401K and the shares I own stay sort of neutral. My plan owns DIV companies like GE and MSFT, etc. So are these dividends then reinvested into the plan… or do I only make a profit a million years in the future if and when these stocks rise back up?
If the market stays flat for a while, is my money just sitting or is it still earning money via Dividends?
Dividends are always reinvested in your 401k plan. If the market stays flat, your mutual funds are still earning money and/or dividends.
You’re braver than I am. I would never turn my 401k over to someone to manage. No one cares more about your money than you.
