While investing is a lucrative means of making money, it can feel confusing and intimidating to amateur traders and investors who lack a financial background. Investing Explained 2e shows you how to take control of your money and make confident, informed investing decisions, whether you're just starting out or refreshing your strategy.
Using plain language and clear explanations of complex topics, MoneyWeek journalist Matthew Partridge reveals all the ins and outs of the profession, showing how private investors can capitalise on changes in technology, regulation and access to information to make highly profitable investments from the comfort of their own home.
Updated with new chapters on cryptocurrency and ethical investing, this clear, practical guide gives you the tools to invest wisely, avoid common pitfalls and build a strategy that works for you, whatever your level of experience.
Themes include: investing for beginners, stock market basics, cryptocurrency, ethical investing, financial literacy and DIY investing
