LinkedIn: where you read opinion pieces on office life, congratulate ex-colleagues and that girl you think you went to uni with on their new job or promotion, and brag about all the fun you’re having at your new job...
While you can't invest directly in LinkedIn itself, you can buy shares in Microsoft (which acquired LinkedIn at the end of 2016). Microsoft is listed on the NASDAQ with stock code "MSFT".
It's important to note that Microsoft isn't just the parent company for LinkedIn. By investing, you're effectively also buying into Windows, Bing, Outlook, Activision Blizzard, Visual Studio and Xbox, amongst others. That means the movement of Microsoft's share price will be affected by more than just the fortunes of LinkedIn.
Both exchange rates and share prices fluctuate in real time, so the costs estimated here should be considered as a guide only. They don't factor in spreads, which can be hard to pin down. Always refer to the platform itself for availability and pricing.

All investing should be regarded as longer term. The value of your investments can go up and down, and you may get back less than you invest. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including LinkedIn (Microsoft)), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
LinkedIn (Microsoft) is a major part of the NASDAQ, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).
December 18, 2024: Microsoft had its target price lifted by UBS Group from $500 to $525 in a research note published on Wednesday morning, according to MarketBeat.
December 10, 2024: Microsoft shareholders on Tuesday voted down a proposal that would've seen the tech giant explore investing in bitcoin as a means of diversifying its assets, according to Fox Business.
