Your thread is too concise, so it will be difficult for beginners to understand. There are several important things that novice stock traders must learn and understand, including:
1. Take time
Beginners should take the time to learn about stocks and their analysis and practice with a demo account and start trading with small amounts first.

A stock market is a place where investors can buy stocks owned by other investors or sell stocks they own to other investors. It is also known as the secondary market. The sellers are investors themselves who want to part with their stocks most frequently because those stocks are selling at a higher price than their original acquisition price. A stock exchange typically facilitates these transactions. The issuing company does not acquire funds through these trading activities as the stocks being traded have already been issued previously through the primary market.

The primary market is where stock companies offer their shares directly to the public usually through an underwriter. This is where they raise funds in exchange for ownership shares. Examples are initial public offerings (IPOs).

In both types of markets, investors need to do a fair amount of research on the company and the industry to which it belongs. They must be well-informed about market trends as well as socio-economic and political trends. Fortunately, nowadays, there are websites that provide information about market trends that investors may need when making stock investing decisions. There are also stock investing simulation apps that potential investors can use to practice their trading skills.

Being a shareholder can either be an ordinary shareholder or preference shareholder. An ordinary shareholder will share both profit and loss of a business. While the preference shareholder are not expected to loose his capital even if the business is run at a loss. In actual fact what should the minimum or maximum threshold that one can invest in a company?
