We don’t post a lot about stocks, but here’s one for all the traders out there. The U of Maryland developed a nifty way to measure market volume surrounding the trading in popular stocks. Whats interesting about this new method is that whole securities market is displayed visually using a series of blocks broken out by industry, where stocks that have greater volumes take up more space in the graph.

The great thing about the map is, its super easy to see which stocks are gaining price on heavy volume. This could be useful for momentum traders or people who want to efficiently search the market for popular issues.

Its kinda complicated to explain verbally, but once you take a look at the map, you’ll see what I mean.

MANAGE YOUR MONEY TOGETHER

Here are some simple guidelines for DINKS to build wealth:

1) Collaborate: Meet regularly to talk about money, set goals together, track and monitor them.

2) Understand and respect your partner. Take time to understand your partners values about money.

3) Watch the numbers. Get a budget, monitor your spending and track your net worth.

4) Max your retirement. Maximize contributions to your tax deferred retirement accounts.

5) Invest in stock. Stocks perform better than bonds or cash.

6) Avoid high interest debt. Credit cards and title loans are financial cancer.

7) Diversify. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
