<prompt> Human: I go onto Robinhood and buy one share of Ford for 12, how much am I really getting compared to something like YUM! Brands 76 or even Apple at 156, then jumping all the way to Tesla at 346 and finally Amazon at 986.Does it actually make sense to buy big money stocks? Would I be just as happy buying many shares of ten and twenty dollar stocks or is it smarter to go for one share of the big money items?  <response>: When talking about individual stocks you cant compare prices 1 to 1. Ford isnt 12 and Amazon 986 in the same context. That isnt an Apples to Apples comparison. Amazon isnt 82x as good of a company as Ford because its stock price is 82x as much as Fords.Ford is generally able to go up by 15 just as easily as Amazon is able to go up by 15, even though the price difference in real dollars is much larger when Amazon goes up 15.In reality, its not so simple because there actually is a psychological impact here. There is actually a definable ideal stock price based on investor sentiment, but the difference is tiny between the best and worst case scenarios here.Suffice it to say that some companies can and do try to split stocks one to multiple in order to keep their per share price within a certain range because they think it will give them an advantage.You, however, sound like you dont have the fundamental understanding to evaluate the investment worthiness of individual stocks, so I would strongly advise that you dont invest in individual stocks.You should seriously consider just buying a super low fee SP500 tracker and not thinking more about it either individual stocks or other funds.
