Orphan date February 2009 Investor Awareness is a term used in investor relations , by public company public companies and similar bodies, to describe how well their investors, and the investment market in general, know their business. Its significance is that investors are expected to base their investment decisions on awareness and knowledge, and a lack of these may lead to a low profile amongst its peers in the stock market market ie, competing businesses and investment opportunities , to the detriment of the business. More Investor awareness is knowledge the investment community has of a company. http soswy.state.wy.us securiti investor basic basic.htm It can be looked at like this Do investors know about your company? If the answer is yes, then it could be said that the company has good investor awareness which means investors have knowledge of, are conscious of, or have a perception of a company and are very aware of its products and services. If we were to assume that a company has no investor awareness or poor investor awareness, then the company has probably done a poor job at creating visibility in the investment community and likely no one outside of the company s offices or friends and family has knowledge of the company.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 The term Amateur investor is often quoted in the UK press as a term of derision, indicating one who invests blindly or is influenced by romantic notions rather than hard facts. The press highlight both the Irish Property Bubble and the British property bubble , for example, the margin which has driven the market to new highs has been the amateur buy to let buy to let investor. In a downturn, they might also provide the marginal sales which drive prices lower. They are in general More willing to pay over the odds Unaware of, or they prefer to ignore, all tax implications Completely dependent on capital appreciation to show a profit Some people s view is that the amateur investor sector s latest entrants will be all but wiped out in the event of stagnation or a property hard or soft landing. This is because their business plans factor in capital appreciation , without which they can only trade at a loss. However, many amateur investors are savvy individuals who make wise and calculated investment decisions and use their investments to supplement their income or provide for their retirement. In this sense, the term amateur simply highlights that investing does not constitute their main income.
