            Yup, a good return is anything more than you can make with the cash someplace else.

                    should aim to beat the index(s&p 500) after fees and taxes

                    you dont have to trade all the time to make good gains. but try to avoid losses which can kill returns

                        Like I said, if you can make more in a savings account, put it in a savings account. If you can make more in a DRiP account, put it in a DRiP account.

                            Do your self a favor.

                            get into mutual funds. Much higher rate of return.

                            I have one, that last quarter was a 17% return.

                              LOL what the hell does any of this have to do with a good % return from managing a stock portfolio? I think 15-20% is good, you guys are acting like 2% is heaven

                                Well, hes obviously a beginner when it comes to investing in stocks, so as long as he is making more money in stocks than he could with a bank or by investing in real estate, hes on the right track. A good return is relative to the person, I am trying to make it not relative.

                                        most mutual fund companies suck tho. over half don't even beat the index

                                          8% annual average over the life is the porftolio.. ie 40-50 years

                                          making 40% one year has to make up for losing 20% another.
