The Most Complete Guide to Investing in Stocks: "Stock Investment for Beginners"

As the age range of individual investors expanded to include not only those in their 20s and 40s, but also middle-aged, elderly, and minors, the number of stock trading accounts has surpassed 50 million.
However, it remains unclear whether all market participants have achieved profitability in the booming market that has seen a large influx of retail investors since 2020.
Many individual investors still follow others when stock prices rise and then sell out in fear when prices fall. They trade solely based on rumors and expectations, so if they achieve high returns, they can only be considered lucky.
Individual investors are fundamentally inadequate to compete with institutional and foreign investors, who are armed with all sorts of information, sophisticated analysis, and specialized trading methods.
Failure to recognize the reality of stock investment on an uneven playing field like this and the wrong, defenseless investment methods can lead stock investment in a 'dangerous' direction.

"Stock Investment: A Beginner's Guide" is designed to help you learn how to find the right brokerage firm for you, set up useful HTS screens for investment, various stock trading strategies, understand the essence of a company and determine its value, and learn each element of a chart through a practical program.
Through this book, the author helps you transform from a defenseless investor into a warrior armed with your own weapons.
As you follow the author's detailed explanations, steeped in his expertise, you'll naturally find yourself establishing your own standards for stock investment.
However, for readers who are hesitant to participate due to the burden of the volatility of the stock market that the author guides, the book is designed to help them reduce their burden by investing in dividend stocks and ETFs.
For investors who are just starting to invest or who, through firsthand experience in the market, cannot shake the feeling that stock investing is risky, "Stock Investment: A Beginner's Guide" will be the best textbook on how to properly invest in stocks.

The definitive introductory guide that covers everything from setting up useful HTS screens for investing to establishing your own investment method!

Thanks to the stock market's repeated rises, awareness of investment has become more active, leading to the emergence of many books for beginners in the stock market.
For those just starting out in investing, there is no book more suitable than "Stock Investment: A Beginner's Guide."
This is because we have collected only the materials that are truly necessary from a beginner's perspective.
Having experienced all the turbulent conditions of the stock market while generating consistent profits for over 10 years, the author has carefully selected only the essential information and explained it so that it can be applied to actual investment.
We've selected only the core secrets that have yielded reliable profits so far.

The author narrowed the gap between theory and practice by using HTS to search for stocks by setting specific conditions such as 'market capitalization above a certain amount' or to sort data by only using necessary conditions such as 'PER' and 'PBR' to derive results.
Beyond simply buying and selling stocks, it offers a variety of trading methods and even provides solutions for managing the appropriate ratio of stocks to cash.
From crucial corporate information that must be verified through electronic disclosures to how to interpret specific figures obtained through financial statements to identify good companies, the author's helpful explanations will help readers turn the beginner's risk of being stranded in the sea of ​​information into an opportunity.

It also explains fundamental and technical analysis, demonstrating that while the difference between a stock's value and price can be an attractive investment incentive, it's not right to become obsessed with one method. It also details how charts can be used as a valuable supplementary tool to avoid the risks of such obsession.
We'll provide useful criteria for selecting dividend stocks to better your dividend investment than bank interest, and also explore how to manage dividends.
For those who still have difficulty selecting and trading detailed stocks, we also recommend ETFs that may be helpful.

Most smart investors go against the crowd!
Even if you don't have the latest information! Even if you have minimal seed money! How beginners can survive in the market.

"Short-term jackpot!" This investment technique doesn't exist anywhere else in the world, but it's the perfect catchphrase to sway the minds of novice investors unfamiliar with the markets.
The author, who has invested with the mindset that “with a long-term perspective and the use of compound interest, you can easily achieve wealth,” says, “There isn’t much in the stock market worth believing in, but it’s worth having at least one belief in compound interest.”
Based on this, I am confident that if you focus on avoiding losses rather than making big gains and pursue defensive trading, you will not experience failures that are so severe that you cannot recover, even if you are not fully prepared.

"If you try to stay cool when many people are intoxicated by rising stocks, and if you become passionate and pick out targets to buy when many people are despairing and discouraged by falling stocks, stock investment can be a good friend that greatly helps increase your assets." "Stock Investment for Beginners" fully embodies the author's serious and profound perspective on investment.
His guidance, which has been preaching stock investment methods through various media such as Naver Cafe's "Value Investment Research Institute," YouTube, and blogs, will greatly help even absolute beginners establish the right investment mindset and avoid the trap of making a lot of money in a short period of time, while selecting only the right information.
