This is the last installment of the series on stock market investment principles. We discussed about the first seven principles in the past three articles<\/a>. Now we will be discussing the last three principles. If you wish to view the article in its entirety please visit my blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

8.) You must devote your time to study – When you want to invest in the stock market you should devote time to study what it’s all about. You can’t just place in your money and hope that it will somehow grow someday. You have to read books and materials on the stock market. When I started investing I dug out materials in the internet related to the stock market especially the Philippine stock market. I bought books on the stock market. The Philippine stock exchange has an “investor’s primer” for those who are new to the stock market. (See the Philippine stock exchange website for more information.)<\/p>\n

Attend seminars on stock market investments. There are several brokerage firms that conduct free seminars for newbies in stock market investing. Last year, CITISEC Online did a 2 day free seminar. I took the time to attend that seminar. This brokerage firm is one of the most innovative, active and well managed brokerage in the Philippines. The information you will learn in the seminars is very helpful. Continual study is required if you want to succeed in the stock market. Once you stop learning you stop to succeed.<\/p>\n

You should read all the materials and attend all the seminars you can to further expand your knowledge You should not give up when there are terms you could not understand. For example reading this article alone may give you a headache since there are words that you can’t relate to. Words such as “points, “Philippine Stock Exchange Index (PSEi), “Blue Chips” or “Bull run” may sound foreign to you. What is worse is that you don’t even understand what a stock is. It does not matter. I started out not knowing what some of these things are.<\/p>\n

You can never learn these things in school. However I learned these things by reading a lot about the subject and through experience. In order that you might be inspired, I suggest you watch the movie “Pursuit of Happyness.” This inspired-by-a-true-story movie is about a man who overcame all odds to learn the stock market letting him make millions<\/a> later on through stock market trading.For sure, you will be inspired by watching the film.<\/p>\n

9.) You must know your current events – A lot of factors can affect the stock market. You should read the news<\/a> paper as this may give you a clue on what direction the market may take. More importantly you should read the business news as this may give you an idea as to which stock you should buy. I read the Philippine Daily Inquirer everyday in order to have an idea where the market is headed.<\/p>\n

10.) Don’t delay today is the best day to start – Experience is the best way to learn. You may start small but the most important thing is that you start right away. Put off procrastination. Study how to go about it without rushing, but don’t delay. If you already know the basics about investments start buying your first stock. Making your first profit from your first sale is truly rewarding.<\/p>\n
