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.
