More people than ever before are saving for and trading in the stock market. Baby boomers have socked away nearly half a trillion dollars for investing over the last four years. Everyone wants to increase their investment, but how do you really learn the ins and outs of how the stock market works? The Complete Idiot's Guide to Making Money on Wall Street, Third Edition, gives you all you need to know--everything from how mutual funds work to which market strategies are safest. Should you choose to invest with Uncle Sam? What is a no-load fund and why could it be better? How do you plan for taxes when you sell? Are bonds for you? What is day-trading and why can it be good--or bad? What do all those government numbers mean for the future of the market? Answers to all these questions and more can be found in The Complete Idiot's Guide to Making Money on Wall Street, Third Edition.
