After witnessing the phenomenal rise in the prices of stocks over the years, despite large and small dips in between, it is now commonly accepted that the stock market is the best place to enable one's fortunes to grow. But what is less accepted is that ‘it is not complicated’. There are many people who simply refrain from investing because they are afraid of the jargon that they hear. Others are cautious because of the stories of losses, meted out by the market, which are floating around. Still others are just not in the market because they lack the time that needs to be invested in understanding the markets.
