Introduction to the Modern World of the Stock Market: A Guide to What You Need to Know Before You Begin Investing or Trading

Do you know what happens when the inflation rate is more than the interest you earn on your savings? YOU LOSE MONEY.

Currently, the top rate you can earn from a nationally available savings account in the U.S. is 0.50%. On the one hand, this means that saving $10,000 will leave you with $10,511 after ten years–a mere 5% increase. On the other hand, with the inflation rate at 6.2%, this means that you are losing 5.7% of your money every year in real terms.

Inflation hurts savers because it erodes the purchasing power of the money they save. So, if your goal is to increase your wealth, you need to pay attention to investments that can help you beat inflation. And such investments are plentiful in the stock market. For example, the S&P 500 has delivered an annualized 10.7% growth rate for the last 30 years. This means that investing $10,000 in a fund that tracks the S&P 500 will leave you with $27,636 after ten years–a whopping 176% increase.

As you can see, unlike what most people believe, participating in the stock market is one of the best ways to grow your wealth and beat inflation. But to do so successfully, you need to educate yourself on how the stock market works.

In this book, Alex Smith takes the reader on an enlightening nine-chapter journey that expands on the following:

Chapter 1: The History of the U.S. Stock MarketChapter 2: How the Stock Market WorksChapter 3: Understanding IndexesChapter 4: Understanding Stocks and StockbrokersChapter 5: Understanding FundsChapter 6: Trading vs InvestingChapter 7: The Modern World of TradingChapter 8: The Modern World of InvestingChapter 9: Things You Need to Understand Before You Start Trading or Investing

This nine-chapter journey is designed to transform any stock market amateur into a semi-professional in no time.

As a seasoned investor and trader, Alex deftly explains the fundamentals of what anyone needs to know to successfully participate as an investor or trader in the stock market.

The question now is: Do you want to keep losing money, or would you like to learn how to grow your wealth?

This is the book to read if you answered “no” and “yes” to the preceding questions.
