go to finance.google.com and just click around, read everything. stocks are simple, they're just parts of a company, you buy them you own part of the company. A small part but that's the idea behind it. Getting things explained to you in laymen's terms will make it much funner for you to learn and you'll probably like it more. |

If you are thinking you'll get rich quickly buy "doing stocks," think again. Investing is NOT gambling. Investing in stocks are same thing as buying a small piece of a big business in hope that the business will grow in the future. Have you ever seen a company get 10 times larger in few weeks? NO, right?
Rather than going into a long winded explanation of how to invest in stocks and how investment in general work, let me recommend that you read books written by Mr. Peter Lynch. He is a very successful investor.
Many of his books are very well written and easy to read, but if you are 11, you might have problem with some of the concepts. You can ask your parents to help you read this book.
DO NOT read any books that suggest you can make a lot of money quickly. It won't work. There is no scheme that work all the time, or even most of the times.
Good luck. |

The book "Personal Finance for Dummies" is very good, and quite easy reading.
In general, your best bet is to go with a no-load mutual fund that tracks a major index, such as the S&P 500. That way, your investment is effectively spread across a wide variety of companies' stocks, automatically diversifying.
In any given year, a few day traders or fund managers will be able to beat an index fund. However, over the long term, only 1 in 1000 can do better, and not by a very large amount.
Remember also that you should never invest in stocks any money that you can't afford to lose. |

do portfolio diversification; meaning take different types of stocks so that gains in some will cover the losses in others.
also, try Asian computer programming company stocks like of Japan, China, India. They are pretty good; I haven't checked the stock market in a while though, so I'm not sure anymore.
Visit Yahoo Finance and check up on different stocks and study it more.
For more advice, you should study Economics; it really helps and you understand the stock market basics much better; it's real easy to learn! It's helped me and my dad a lot! |

the safest way to go is to invest in blue chip stocks. Those are the high profile stocks. Such as McDonnalds, Disney, Coke Cola, Microsoft. This stocks arnt very volital(They wont go up or down too much) So they are not as risky. |
