How about C?

First time buyer, 10K to start. Thinking about "C", is it a good buy for long term?

if you are a gambler, go for it. Who knows when it's gonna to pick up. Citi is still in high risk. Mutual fund managers do not like it at all.

% J& L( @6 Z8 Q$ M+ U' N! w3 MI agree with cougarzuo. C currently is a BIG NO for me. It may give you an offering price for the new issue someday later, but I expect the price following the new issue to drop even below the offering price. Then you may consider loading some shares if you really like C.

BTW, with your budget, why don't find some blue chip stock to invest, why risk your money and pick a trash?

I will not have time to monitor the market closely to be an active trader. I just wanted to turn some free cash into some long term assets. Would C still be there in 5 years? If yes, would the stock gain higher than inlfation and GIC?  Thanks for your adivse.

如果买了抱住的话，个人看好能源和原材料股。
