Robinhood: Trading & Investing

If you’re looking for a straightforward way to start investing with minimal friction, Robinhood remains one of the easiest apps to get you started. You can buy and sell stocks, ETFs, options, and even cryptocurrencies without paying a dime in commissions. 

The app’s sleek and simple interface guides you through trades step by step, making it ideal for beginners who don’t want to feel overwhelmed by the complexities and jargon of the investing world.

What makes it stand out is its support for fractional shares. This means you can invest in companies like Apple or Tesla with as little as $1, making it a great fit for investors who are still building their portfolios. You’ll also get real-time alerts, watchlists, and a surprisingly robust news feed built right into the app.
