Stock Market

I learned a lot about the stock market by doing the stocks throughout the class year. I saw how they rose and fell depending on how the economy was doing and how the events throughout the world effected the different companies. However, the most important thing I learned is that you have to know what your doing when you want to invest in the stock market. When I picked my stocks I just picked random companies, and I didn't really give it much thought. As a result, my stocks did really do very well, and although I did make money, I didn't make very much. If you are going to invest in the stock market, only do it if you know what you are doing. If you don't but you still want to invest in the stock market, have someone who knows what they're doing do it for you, because it takes more that just buying stocks from random companies.
