Lol so is that what you told the homeless lady? If she puts a stop loss order on her Ford shares at their original price it's now risk free?

Yeah I understand what you're saying The fact that you can sell stock when the stock starts to go down - whether automatically or manually - has no impact on whether investing in stocks is "safe" or not You can do the same thing at a casino

Many companies that make products people love go bankrupt, it happens all the time Genuine fundamental analysis of a business is a much more difficult and complex task than I think I'm capable of (which is why I don't pick stocks)

I don't have any interest in learning to pick stocks because my opinion is picking stocks is bad, yes

Replying to @arthur_affect @TransEthics
The thing being, I'm still pretty sure I'm more educated on this topic than the random homeless lady you ran into, but I have no confidence in my ability to beat the market and make day to day decisions about trading and you seem to think telling her to do all that is just fine

What I'm describing is sensible risk aversion and not investing money you currently need to live, which is extremely basic advice
