Shares for Beginners

Have you heard the term "sheep money"? Mitchell Atkins explains that it's the Twitter guys, the followers, the pumpers and the dumpers that can change the market dramatically. He reckons that you'll see an IPO (a company listing to the stock exchange), and it will have advisers and brokers creating amazing hype. The razzle as Mitchell calls it. Then the company starts to trend on social media and boom, everyone sells out, the share price tanks, and the poor retail investors (the sheep) lose out. It was a pleasure discussing this and other insights with the micro-cap fund manager of the year Mitchell Atkins (@Magnolia_Mitch) / Twitter

Hit him up on Twitter - he's happy to talk about his ideas and answering investing questions. https://twitter.com/Magnolia_Mitch

LICs are Listed Investment Companies or sometimes referred to as LITs. Tony Kynaston of the QAV Investing Podcast, all-round great guy/investor joined me to explain what kind of beast an LIC is. It's like an ETF but with some very important differences. LICs have been around a lot longer than ETFs. And they can be attractive in their own special way.

"Almost 45 million US households will transfer a total of 68 trillion US dollars in wealth in the next 25 years. And millennials are really going to be the primary beneficiary of these transfer. So by 2050, they're expected to replace the baby boomers as the generation with the greatest wealth and online share trading platform. NABtrade says in Australia, millennials will inherit around three and a half trillion dollars from baby boomers over the next 20 years. And then of course, when we look at millennials coming into investment, it's also important to understand, well, what is important to millennials and Morgan Stanley says that 86% of millennials are interested in sustainable investing and twice as likely as the overall population to invest in companies targeting ESG goals." – Lelde Smits
