investment

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'getting into stocks' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'one in official garment' is the wordplay.
'official garment' becomes 'vestment' (I've seen this before. I am not sure about the 'official' bit.).
'in'+'vestment'='INVESTMENT'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for investment that I've seen before include "Something worth buying for future profit" , "One way to make gains" , "Something bought for its future value" , "siege" , "applying time and effort?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
