I used to be really into stocks when I was pretty young, mainly because of Jim Cramer. I'm looking to get back into learning about to market, so I have two questions:
-
Where can I learn about the basics in stocks and bonds? When I was younger I used to be able to read the stock listings in the New York Times, but now it's mostly gibberish to me. What are things I should look for and things to avoid?
-
Donald Trump. I know the market likes stability, and Donald Trump is anything but stable. He'll take 3 conflicting policy positions in one sentence. He's shown to be very wreckless with his remarks and tweets. It appears he's trying to pick a fight with China (the whole taiwan debacle), and personally I fear a trade and/or military war with them. He doesn't have that much knowledge about foreign policy which may affect foreign investments. Also from what I can tell the market isn't too keen on wars and international conflict. So, is this the right time to start trading and investing? Should I wait to see if that Electoral College-Kaisch plan works out? If he's impeached? Until 2020? Or will a President Trump and in inherit instability not really have an effect on the market as traders will get used to it and just keep plugging along?
Thank you!
