Answer 2

Well,  you can accumulate all that knowledge only bit by bit.  Don't worry though, if you have the passion to dig in deeper, you can cut short the learning curve by benefiting much from the experience of others, and by making your own, hopefully small, mistakes! Consider adopting all of these mechanisms below, to get more knowledgeable, slowly.

a. Since you are starting out, first you need to familiarise yourself with the basics. Consider the set of excellent articles at sites such as these below

Great investing basics websites

http://beginnersinvest.about.com/

http://www.investopedia.com/articles/bas...

http://www.kiplinger.com/moneybasics/

b. Next, I would recommend you to first get solid grounding in Investing. 3 must read books. If you haven't heard of these, buy them NOW, today. They will be your invaluable guides to safe & prosperous investing and future wealth creation.

1. Intelligent Investor -Benjamin Graham

Considered the bible of all investors, this will foremost teach you the basics and most importantly, how not to lose money. Thats the first lesson you need, believe me

2. One up on Wall Street -Peter Lynch

This is another classic. Tells you how to spot winners from what you see around you. successful products, companies. Practically shows you how you do not need to be a hot shot financial analyst to be able to spot good moneymaking opportunities in stocks

3. Common stocks Uncommon Profits- Phil Fisher

As you dabble for 1 or 2 years, make some money and also make some small (hopefully) mistakes, you will start itching to catch the multi-baggers, the ones that go up 4x-10x in a couple of years! This book show you how to sift out probable winners

c. Next, you need to understand more on the promising sectors, promising companies, etc. So start reading the Economic Times daily, watch CNBC TV 18 -your stocks with Udyan, UtVi, NDTV Profit. There are also dedicated shows on Sat/Sunday mornings 9.30 am onwards till 11 am or so on CNBC TV18 - that cover investing basics, markets next week-basically trading calls for the week, and other useful shows.

d. You could also join some investing/Trading groups to learn more from other investors. Here by listening on the conversations, you can shorten your learning curve. I don't do Trading so I cant tell you about such groups, but there are good long term investing groups like http://in.groups.yahoo.com/group/lawarre...

You can check out more such yahoogroups at http://in.dir.groups.yahoo.com/dir/Busin...

e. Once you have spent some time in all above, say 3-6 months, you will see that you start forming some ideas of your own. That you are able to comment on or question what someone is saying on TV, the yahoogroup or even what your friends offer as stock ideas. If you are unable to comment /question anything on most of the pronouncements by analysts/others thats a pretty good indicator that you are not ready yet. If you venture out at this stage, you are probably not investing but gambling away hard earned money:-)

So read up, ask questions, see that you are able to interpret/question/comment on what others are saying. Only then take small bets in companies you believe in, which have some track records. Don't go for quick profits, thats a sure recipe for disaster!

Good Luck!
