Stock Market Guide To Making Money Fast In GTA 5
Our GTA 5 Stock Market Guide details everything that you need to know about making maximum money across all three characters in GTA 5 in the least amount of time.
Starting Up – What You Need To Continue
Main Story completion is mandatory. You must complete the main story and avoid purchasing any major property or do not waste your money too much while playing the story. The more money you have when you finish the story, the more money can be earned back. Spend money only where it is absolutely necessary.
Complete only the first Lester’s assassination mission called The Hotel Assassination. At this point, you will not have much to invest anyway and the mission is crucial to story progression. You must complete this mission and then avoid all future assassination missions until you complete the main story of the game because, in the end, you will have a lot in hand.
Once you have completed the main story, you can start with the actual Stock Market investments and Lester’s Assassination Mission. Also, keep in mind that the Stock Market works in GTA V just like the real world. It begins at 8 AM and closes at 8 PM. It is also closed on weekends.
Earning Money Fast via Stock Exchange In GTA 5
Once you have completed the main story and all three of your characters have healthy bank accounts, it is time to switch to Frank and start doing Lester’s assassination missions. We have detailed all missions and what to do below.
Assassination # 2 – The Multi Target Assassination
Before starting the mission, invest your entire amount with all three characters in Debonaire (LCN). Now complete the stock market assassination mission, sell all of the Debonaire shares at around 80% peak and invest in Redwood (LCN). Head back to your apartment and save your game around 8 times to advance nearly 48 hours in the game. This will cause Redwood shares to increase by around 300%. Make sure you are not attempting this on weekends as Stock Markets are closed on the weekend. This is a great way of making a lot of money fast in GTA 5.
| Mission | Investment Before | Sell at return of | Investment After | Sell at return of |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Hotel Assassination | Betta Pharmaceuticals (BAWSAQ) | 50% | Bilkinton Research (LCN) | 80-200% |

| The Construction Assassination | Gold Coast (LCN) | 80% | – | – |
Assassination # 3 – The Vice Assassination
This stock market assassination mission plays around the same as the last one however it has a very crucial step when it comes to reinvesting. If you miss this step, you will get a lot less than the amount you can get when you follow the step. Before the mission, invest in Fruit (BAWSAQ). It will peak at around 50%.
Once the mission is complete, immediately sell your shares of Fruit and invest in Façade (BAWSAQ). Wait for a few days and then sell of Façade as well. It will peak at around 30%. Make sure that you invest in Façade during the rebound or you will earn much less than the actual amount possible.
Assassination # 4 – The Bus Assassination
For this assassination, you do not have to invest in any company before the mission. Complete the mission and immediately buy stocks in Vapid (BAWSAQ). Wait for a few days until the stock peaks at 100%. Sell the shares once you do, enjoy your income. This will allow you to make a lot of money quickly in GTA5.
Assassination # 5 – The Construction Assassination
For this assassination mission, you must invest in GoldCoast (LCN) before the mission. Once the mission is complete, sell off the shares and you will get instant profit. GoldCoast shares will peak at around 80% and there is no rebound this time around.

Hey, there are two complete lost opportunities in this plus one wrong competitor. Bilkington is a competitor to Beta Pharmaceuticals. There is a mission after the first assassination and after the (fruit deal which you do not list either) Yes the fruit stock deal that guy gives you will earn you enough to get Michael over 1.8 million and Frank to 1 million Trevor lingers at this point at about $750,000 Then you do another trade not mentioned here before you do the game completion too.
Doing it this way, I ended the game with $2.8 billion to Michael and $2.73 billion to frank, and $1.53 billion to Trevor.
THEN I started buying businesses to make money (not very profitable) and I started working with the rival companies list to make money. ( a little more profitable and a lot more fun and challenging. lol)
