Product Connection Does investing in the stock market sound intimidating? Many grown-ups are still intimidated by it! Investing in the stock market is just one place to make your money grow. Where do you start? How do you know which companies you should invest in? A good place to start is with you! Who makes the products you and your friends use? You want to invest in companies that are making money selling their products. And if you're buying, there must be others girls your age buying these same products! What companies make what products? And what are parent companies? Some products can be hard to track to a parent company. Some are pretty clear. Think about your favorite shirt you bought at Limited Too. Who made your shirt? Well, that's easy, Limited Too. Is Limited Too the main company, or is it owned by someone else? Guess what! It's USED TO be owned by someone else-The Limited, Inc. The Limited, Inc. actually owns Express, The Limited, Lerner New York, Structure, New York & Co., and Mast and several other smaller companies. In 1999 Limited Too separated from its parent company, The Limited, Inc. and became a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange. So Limited Too is it's own parent company! Did you know these products went with these parent companies?
