[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]11:40 again.  Fidelity and Vanguard are best for buying mutual funds -- either actively managed or passive/index funds (note passive/index have lower fees).  You can buy/sell some stocks, but if you are looking to ACTIVELY buy/sell stocks and don't have a large amount to invest yet, you may look into a discount brokerage account, such as through e-trade or some similar company.  [/quote]Would e-trade be good for buying a share or two of stocks for anyone with very little money.[/quote]

PP here, I wasn't sure and was curious since I have a Fidelity account.  turns out they have $7.95 stock trades:  https://login.fidelity.com/ftgw/Fidelity/RtlCust/Login/Init/df.chf.ra/Trade?AuthRedUrl=https://oltx.fidelity.com/ftgw/fbc/ofsummary/defaultPage&AuthOrigUrl=https://scs.fidelity.com/customeronly/trade.shtml

But note you usually need at least $2,500 in an account at Fidelity.
