Though one has to take "everything" with a big ol' grain of salt, I use Fidelity, and like the layout and "research portion" that it offers...not sure he's gonna get that with a modest investment though. As other have posted...fantastic idea (saving. investing, and being interested in this stuff in general)....good for him!

I done both (mutual funds for years, not any more)....don't agree with the "picking stocks" portion of your post, but you're spot on with the last part (I am NOT a trader but do invest in individual co's. these days).
ps: I'm pretty good though, and actually CAN "time the market" with pretty decent accuracy fwiw...
It's gonna open at 9:30 and close at 4:00 most days
