In GTA 5's story mode/single player, you can do assassination missions for Lester as Franklin. Each time you carry out a hit, the stock market will be affected. In this guide, we'll tell you exactly which stock will be affected by your hit, so that you can invest in that stock with all the money that each of your three characters has (Michael, Franklin, Trevor). This way, you can make a TON of money.
Original Method
Tips and Prerequisites
If you want to really cash-in, wait until the end of the game (when you've completed the campaign and the "The Big Score" and should have lots of money) to do the assassination missions. This will let you invest the most money and also realize the most profits... Each character will have between $40 and $100 MILLION!
You also need to cycle through each of your characters before each mission so that you can invest all their money in the relevant stock. And, before you start a mission, make sure you quick save, just in case you make a mistake.
One final thing — if you need to advance some days in order for the stock price to move as desired, go to a safehouse and fall asleep. This will pass the time enough for your investments to spike. Then sell them!
The List of Stocks
Invest in the stock listed below before each assassination mission and follow any other notes. It's that easy!
