SixpackYou may also wish to try a few classic
investment texts (after you know a few of the basics) such as:
The Intelligent Investor (a Warren Buffett
favourite) by Ben Graham
A Random Walk down Wall Street by...forgotten name,
but great book anyway.
Beating the Street by Peter Lynch
One up on Wall Street by Peter Lynch
There is a wealth of fantastic information at the
fool - excellent articles on basic principles of investing in
shares.

Sixpack - from a beginner's point of view I think
the best you could do is take the free stuff on the web. When I first
started I visited some of the US broker sites - not to register or trade but
to get their free information. Because they are so keen to attract the
day-traders over there they provide heaps of "How To" info that's all
free. I pulled most of my stuff off E-trade (www.etrade.com?) - outlined all the
abbreviations, all the stuff about reading spreads, puts and calls,
short-selling , margin trading plus a review of all their markets from the Dow
to the OTC pinks. None of this is directly usable in NZ but I think
you'll find it helps to understand how things go on- from there you will be
able to work out "why" things go on.

Subject: [sharechat] Need to learn
more
Can anyone tell me how I can learn more about
the stockmarket. I love reading the forums and checking out different
sites but do not feel I'm getting the information I need. Any
information on seminars or any training or courses on
trading.
