STOCK MARKET FOR BEGINNERS IN INDIA

WELCOME TO MY BLOG ON STOCK MARKET FOR BEGINNERS IN INDIA.

TO BEGIN WITH STOCK MARKETS IN INDIA , FIRST WE WILL START WITH BASICS .

WHAT IS STOCK MARKET ?

A Stock Market is a share market or platform for traders and investors to buy and sell shares of various companies listed . FOR EX : When a buyer buys a share of a company , he/she is actually buying a part of that company and the company gains funds by this method .The company uses these funds for their growth which in turn increases the revenue (Not Always ) and the share price are increased which profits the buyer .

STOCK EXCHANGES IN INDIA .

THERE ARE TWO MAJOR STOCK EXCHANGES IN INDIA .

  1. BSE : BOMBAY STOCK EXCHANGE
  2. NSE : NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE

BOMBAY STOCK EXCHANGE

It consists of SENSEX . Sensex is the sensitivity index of top 30 companies .

The top 30 companies are decided on the basis of MARKET CAPITALISATION ( market value ) = Share price * No of shares

NOTE : THE SHARE PRICE KEEPS ON CHANGING AND SO DOES THE MARKET VALUE .

NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE

It consists of NIFTY which includes the top 50 companies out of which top 30 companies remain the same and the last 20 companies have less weightage , so they almost run in parallel.

NIFTY AND SENSEX ACT AS BAROMETER OF ECONOMY

THERE ARE TWO WAYS :

  • TRADING
  • INVESTING :

Investing is the right way . It is believing in the future of the company and no matter what happens you wil have to be optimistic and as for the forthcoming generations , the consumption is going to increase , which in turn will increase the economy and hence will increase the share price of nifty and sensex

Knowledge required for investing ?

Investing requires a less knowledge than trading.  As in investing , you should have high school maths knowledge ( not even necessary ) . 

The basic rule is to protect your capital . For example , 50 % of your loss is covered by 100% of profit which is rare . So the basic thing is that you cannnot afford to loose your capital .

When you invest , you invest in the value of the company in regard to its future whereas when you trade , you invest in the price of the share of the company

  • Do not blindly follow the herd . Dont just invest everything you have because everyone is doing.

DO NOT MEASURE THE DEPTH OF THE RIVER BY PUTTING BOTH YOUR LEGS , YOU WILL DROWN FOR SURE.

  • Always have a valid reason for WHY you are investing in that company , is it just because of profit or you believe in the future of company.
  • Learn to control your emotions as the market is full of ups and downs but in the end on a long term basis , it ends on higher note in majority of the cases.
  • Always invest in the right company , the companies that are too big to fall . Would you like to buy a mercedes at discount or a toyota on a full price ?
  • You should buy at lows and sell it when high whereas what other people do is they buy at full price and sell when it is low because they cannot handle their emotions or they invest in volatile companies that can shut down or go bankrupt
  • Not all your investments are going to end big but they are goiing to teach you something that will make you end big .

Introduce Yourself (Example Post)

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

  • Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
  • Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
  • What topics do you think you’ll write about?
  • Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
  • If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
