Basics 101

Welcome to Investing Basics 101!

What is investing all about? Over the years, we have come to realize that there are many people who visit WallStraits.com and simply don’t know the first thing about investing (especially the difference between “investing” and “speculating”). They don’t know what a stock is, how to buy or sell one, or even why stock markets evolved in capitalist societies.

So, we decided to create a little ‘investing basics’ virtual school to give the novice investor a headstart. For obvious reason, we named it “Investing Basics 101,” and followed it up with a real hard-cover book you can buy from our main-page or our library, called Investing Basics.
