I'm a 20-year-old supply chain student graduating in three semesters, but I've become very fascinated by the world of investing, securities, commercial banking, stock markets, and all that good stuff. However, I just feel so overwhelmed at the same time because there is so much to learn like the different kinds of financial institutions, strategies in investing in the stock market, NASDAQ, cash flow processes, etc. I don't feel my FIN 300 book is giving me a good picture of how the financial system really works.
I've recently been getting into the shows Wall Street Warrior and Dragon's Den, and the culture of investing is absolutely fascinating to me.
I know the economy sucks and it is not a good time to invest, but I want to start learning how to be a successful stock trader before things hopefully start to boom again in a few years. What resources would you guys suggest I start reading to learn the financial system and how to use it? I am wondering if there is any good simulations out there too, ones that use the current stock market prices with real companies and real amounts. Thanks!
