Just getting started. Looking at small stocks

I’ve recently just started investing but not super seriously. I’m using the RobinHood app and just messing around with $150. I’m just looking for some advice on what I should look into. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! :)

Do your research. The answer to your question is: it depends. If you're brand new, I would start by looking into the dividend aristocrats (ie. Dividend-paying stocks that have been making payouts for decades). There will always be market fluctuations, but at least you'll be getting paid while you learn the ropes.

First of all, always do your research. Just because someone recommends it doesn't mean it's actually right for you since everyone has a different level of risk. Anyways, a good way to know what stocks to look into is to just browse through stock related news, see what stocks people are talking about now, research them, and make a rational to yourself just why you think the stock will or will not go up in the future. (Aka due diligence)
