🌱For beginners
Your first steps in investing — from the basics through choosing a style to your first trade. No jargon, step by step.
For beginners — overview
Starting to invest is simpler than it looks — and full of terms that can put people off. This section walks a complete beginner step by step: what a stock actually is (a share in a company), how an exchange works, how to open a brokerage account, how much money you need to start and how to make a first trade without avoidable mistakes. The goal is to strip out jargon and give solid foundations on which any strategy can be built. The most important early lessons are not technical but principled: diversification (do not bet everything on one card), time horizon (money you will soon need does not belong in stocks) and realistic expectations (markets swing in the short run, have historically risen long-term, but never with a guarantee). Understanding the difference between investing and speculation, price and value, and risk and volatility saves a beginner many expensive errors. The section then moves to choosing an investing style, reading basic metrics and connecting to QMA tools that simplify analysis. Everything is written plainly, with examples and analogies. QMA is an analytical and educational tool — it does not issue "buy this stock" instructions, but teaches you to understand what you see so you can decide for yourself.
