How To Invest In Stocks

The first edition of this book (written in 2003) was about investing in the Indian stockmarket but it remained popular around the world. This was because it:

•was, as the cover says, a plain-English guide to investing in the stockmarket. It assumed that you did not know anything about stocks, company law, finance or commerce.
•had some useful 'extra' information that you will not find in any investment book and no business school will teach you. Mere book knowledge about stockmarkets will not help you understand the markets. Markets are influenced by news and information (there is a difference). You need to know how to interpret the news with historical context.

While this completely revised second edition retains the original premise, it also has a global focus, updated information and new chapters.

DISCLAIMER: Although this book does show how to buy/sell stocks online, the stock trading provider you finally choose will have the best guide to their service. This book has a broader perspective.
