Hi I am zuhail from Sri Lanka :sri_lanka:
A finance professional and a stock market investor.
I am yet to invest in the US stock exchange and would love to learn more on this.
I am more interested in the Logisitcs industry considering the boom due to supply chain distruptions. Back in Sri Lanka we have few companies that shot up by over 2000% Due to the extraordinary performance, which is above bitcoin Growth as well for last year.
Would love to share ideas and learn more from this group

salaam!

Good luck Farhan .

One tip. Stocks are not tickers or lottery tickets or pieces of paper. They represent ownership interest in underlying business.

Forget all the noise and trading you will see around you everywhere. First try to get the philosophy of stock investing and a framework and then build your business plus financial analysis skills. Peter Lynch’s One Up on Wall Street gives you a great start.

  2. I’m located in Kolkata, India.
  3. First of all my question is, does your service cater to the Indian market? If not, there’s nothing more we can discuss here.

Waiting for a positive response.

As-salam Alaykum,
My name is Ismail Ahmed. I am currently a high school student. I am located just outside of the Twin Cities metropolitan area in Fridley, Minnesota. I have no shares/position in any stock for fear I will lose on my investment or worse invest in something haram, so I feel I have a lot to learn before start.

You are starting at a young age. That’s most of the battle won :slight_smile:

Few secrets of investing

  1. time in market > timing the market.
    Save and invest at regular intervals once you start earning.

  2. let compounding and markets do the heavy lifting. Let your money compound for decades.

Drops and crashes will occur. Don’t sell in panic.

Good luck. individual stock picking can be fun and enriching. But it takes effort. If you put in the effort you will figure it out.
