Stock Market Beginner?

satarhat7 asked:


What would be a good book or internet school for a person that wants to learn to invest but has no possible idea were to start.
i would like a book that teaches you evrything about the market including. Market Terms, currency trading, internet trading, explains what hedge funds and bonds are, and tells you how to invest when starting with nothing.
I am 14 and plan to start investing within the next month
also i will be taking a general business class this year in school and i would like to excel in that class.

    Start at and on the investing tab, choose education. That will be a good set of primers. Then you will better be able to know if/what you want to learn more about. But in the mean time that will cost you nothing and get you started.

    This is not meant to be insulting at all but “Investing for Dummies” is a great book that covers a wide range of information about investing, the markets, investment options, strategies, etc. Also, as the previous answer mentioned Yahoo! Finance and Motley Fool are also good options for free education. Congratulations to you for making this wise choice at such an early age. This is an incredibly important topic for people to be informed about.

    There are classic about investing in general:

    Intelligent Investor: A Book of Practical Counsel by Benjamin Graham and Jason Zweig

    A Random Walk Down Wall Street: The Time-Tested Strategy for Successful Investing by Burton G. Malkiel

    Then there is Investing for Dummies, and several personal finance and trading books ….for Dummies. These are actually very good intro books plus vocabulary lessons. Too bad about the dumb titles.
