Investing fundamentals

1
Stocks and ETFs
A stock is a share of one company; an ETF holds many securities in a single fund, often tracking an index like the S&P 500.
2
Diversification
Spreading money across companies, sectors and asset classes reduces the impact of any single holding.
3
Risk and time horizon
The longer you can leave money invested, the more short-term swings you can ride out. Never invest money you may need soon.

1
How IPOs work
A company sells shares to the public for the first time. The price range, date and size can change until it prices, and early trading is often volatile.
2
Reading key statistics
Market cap, P/E ratio, 52-week range and volume: what each tells you, and what it doesn't.
3
Market hours
US stock markets trade 9:30 am–4:00 pm ET on weekdays; crypto markets never close, so prices can move while you're away.

1
Your wallet
Your Zenvex Capital wallet holds a balance for each digital asset you deposit, recorded in an append-only ledger.
2
Assets and networks
USDT on TRC20 and USDT on ERC20 are the same asset on different networks: always send on the network you selected.
3
Stablecoins
Stablecoins aim to track the US dollar, but the peg depends on the issuer and isn't guaranteed.

1
Investment plans
A plan commits funds for a lock period you choose. It sets the minimum, maximum and maturity date; it doesn't promise a return.
2
Order types explained
Market orders fill promptly at the prevailing price; limit orders fill only at your price or better; stop orders trigger when a price is reached.
3
Withdrawing safely
Withdrawals need identity verification and a one-time code, and every destination address is checked against its network.
