The very best and easiest way is to read a business magazine like BusinessWeek, Fortune, or Forbes. They will tell about various companies or industry sectors (often highlighting some of the better players in those lines of business). Then you look up the stock information, as each has a prominant search feature that takes you to some fairly good summaries on those companies. Then when something revs your engine so that you say something like "I want to be a part of that!" Then you open a brokerage account (like scottrade.com or sharebuilder.com) and buy a bit of it. Then you simply let it ride, adding more when you can afford to. This is investing. It is like planting a tree. It can seem as boring as watching paint dry, but if, say, you bought into ADM because they are helping fuel the ethanol industry and cut our reliance on foreign oil, then as the company's value grows, so does the value of the money that you put into it.
That is a start. Trading, now that is a good deal more complicated, and a whole lot more risky. May I suggest a simple way to start: buy seasonal stocks just before their season starts. Buying Coke or Pepsi in spring, then dumping them for coffee companies like Starbucks in August or September, is because cold drinks sell well in summer and hot drinks sell well in winter. I got my start buying Fedders (makers of window air conditioners) in the dead of winter (February) and selling them in July, mid to late summer. But if you stick with slow, boring investing, as I described above, you won't have as many embarrassing stories to tell about how you lost a lot of money in stocks. |

Please visit the Motley Fool's website at www.fool.com. It will help you a huge amount, especially the discussion boards there. Also start reading some basic books - I like these for starters:
"One Up on Wall Street" and "Learn to Earn" by Peter Lynch |

I like Investopedia's "Stock Simulator" because it gives you $100,000 of fake money to buy and sell whatever stocks you want and its realistic too because you have to pay fake comissions with your fake money, so you learn how bad it is to continuosly buy and sell and also that investing long term is a great strategy... |

Fool.com (as someone else mentioned), Morningstar are both good, independent websites to go through. I would stick with mutual funds until you feel more comfortable with stock investing though. |
