Best Platforms to Buy Stocks

The stock market has taken its hit since COVID-19 has played its course. If you have been on the fence about investing in stocks, now is the time to buy. My top picks for beginner investing platforms are as follows...

Fidelity

Fidelity's website is easy to use and there is plenty of education available for beginners. The broker's retirement education is top of the line and there is no minimum deposit required to open an account. Stock trades are also free.

E*TRADE

Power E*TRADE is easy to navigate, fast and includes usability upgrades perfect for new investors such as practice trading. There is no minimum deposit required to open an account at E*TRADE, and stock trades are free.

Robinhood

Robinhood's mobile app is easy to use but they do not provide market research or trading tools to help beginners make informed decisions. Robinhood's no-frills approach to online trading is enough to earn it a recommendation. There is no minimum deposit required to open an account at Robinhood, and stock trades are free.

TD Ameritrade

New investors have access to a user-friendly website, hundreds of monthly webinars, videos, and free premium courses. TD Ameritrade is the only broker to gamify the entire learning experience with progress tracking, quizzes, badges, and a unique point system. There is no minimum deposit required to open an account at TD Ameritrade, and stock trades are free.

Charles Schwab

Charles Schwab offers a thorough educational experience to satisfy beginners. Their specialty is retirement, which makes it ideal for long term investors. There is no minimum deposit required to open an account at Schwab, and stock trades are free.

My current favorite is Robinhood just because it is so easy to do from your phone! Do you use any of these platforms for investing?
