Investment Club.

An investment club bought a bond of an oil corporation for $5000. The bond yields 8% per year. The club now wants to buy shares of stock in a hospital supply company. The stock sells at $20 per share and earns a dividend of $0.50 per share per year. How many shares should the club buy so that its total investments in stocks and bonds yield 5% per year?

I heard that the housing market being low in sales and with the forclousure market crashing, it is affecting investors so much that they are moving money out of equities (stocks) and investing more in safer investments. Thats why the stock market has been down so much in the past week.

How does this happen? I was reading about it, but I didn’t really understand. Are investors pulling out their stocks from big lenders? How exactly does it affect the stock market? I need help understanding it in normal terms that make sense.

Please advise, thank you!!

My financial advisor advised me to move more of my investments into the bond market. He said that equities have been at all time highs, and the market is expected to correct itself sometimes between summer and this winter. However, I can’t find any articles on this expected correction. Anyone know more about this? Also, what are some good online news organization where I can read articles about the stock market?
