If you're just getting started with stocks, you'll likely want to read a few well-organized glossaries and beginner-friendly stock books.
Beginners in the stock market are very determined to study for a while as it is a new challenge.
Once you become somewhat familiar with stock terminology, you will have the courage to start investing in stocks.
However, many beginners complain that they have difficulty in actually opening HTS and feeling lost as to which stocks to invest in.
The question of which stocks to invest in is, well, back to square one.
It is also difficult to determine whether now is the time to invest in stocks.
If a beginner with these concerns is reading this, I want to tell you that this is the book for you.


This book provides detailed, easy-to-understand information for beginners, including the relationship between stocks and exchange rates, how to invest when faced with risks like COVID-19, and, most importantly, how to identify fundamental stocks.
The author says that although there are many stock books on the market, he decided to write this book after years of contemplation to include stories about stocks and investment methods that are not available on the market.
This book is thoroughly practical.
This book will be useful not only for those who want to start investing in stocks but also for beginners who have already started studying stocks, and for beginners who have studied a lot but are hesitant when it comes to actual practice.

In the early stages of the COVID-19 outbreak, various news outlets praised our country for its successful national quarantine efforts.
At the end of February, when I heard the news that the number of confirmed cases had reached zero, I thought this was a minor risk.
Compared to the risk of Japan's trade retaliation (more on this later), which previously dragged down the index, the risk posed by COVID-19 when purchasing KODEX leverage was not that great and was expected to end soon.
I had a strong mental muscle thanks to the experience and knowledge I had gained from trading stocks for about 19 years.
So, I was able to literally go all-in with 200 million won on KODEX leverage.

Seven years have passed since I started investing in stocks in 2001 and until 2008.
But why didn't I jump into the stock market during the 2008 Lehman Brothers crisis, which was on par with the IMF crisis? The answer is, like Yoon Jeong-hak, the protagonist of "The Day the Nation Bankrupted," I didn't understand the magnitude of the risks.

The highest exchange rate since 2011 was 1,277 won, during the Greek financial crisis.
By analyzing two sets of data, I was able to estimate the scale and duration of the crisis brought about by COVID-19.
During the Greek financial crisis, the exchange rate was 1,277 won, and during the Chinese liquidity crisis, the exchange rate stayed above 1,200 won for 8 weeks. These two data points are what I judged to be the size and duration of the risk I will face in the future.

There are things that stock investors find difficult, and one of them is corporate analysis.
Most stock investors don't know how to read financial statements.
No, there are many people who trade solely based on charts, even though they hate looking at them.
There are ways for people who don't like or can't do business analysis to reduce their mistakes.
This is how I find out what industry the company I'm thinking of buying is in.

Then one day, a woman in her fifties who was an acquaintance of mine called me and asked if we could meet up.
The reason was that he was very anxious even though he had invested a large amount of money into a certain stock.
I asked what kind of stock it was.
They said it was 'Namyang Dairy Products'.
I asked her where she bought it and she replied that she bought it at a pretty high price.
When I asked how much the purchase price was, the woman hesitated and then said it was in the hundreds of millions.
I immediately opened the Namyang Dairy chart.
The place I bought it from was not good.
So I asked the lady why she bought it in this position.
Then the lady said

“There was a fake milk powder scandal in China.
The answer was, “I bought it because I thought Chinese people would buy our country’s powdered milk instead of their own.”

I'm embarrassed, I'm really embarrassed, but I felt bad at that time.
It wasn't that the question was offensive, it was just that I felt really bad about myself.
While studying stocks, I only studied the candles, moving averages, and trading volume in HTS and found answers there.
But I was shocked by the fact that this person invested hundreds of millions of dollars in stocks based on just one news report, without any knowledge of the knowledge, experience, or chart information I had studied for eight years.
