40 Stock Market Terms That Every Beginner Should Know


Understanding the stock market can be a daunting task for any new investor.


Not only are there many concepts and technical terms to decipher, but nearly everybody will try to give you conflicting pieces of advice.


For example, if a stock in your portfolio falls in price, should you be accumulating additional shares at a lower price or should you be strategically cutting your losses?


Some experts will tell you one thing, while others will tell you precisely the opposite.


A Place to Start: Terminology

Before you drift into the many debates that the investing pundits are weighing in on, perhaps the most proactive step for a beginner is to simply learn to talk the same language as the pros.


Today’s infographic comes to us from StocksToTrade.com, and it covers the most important stock market terms that every new investor should know and understand. It’s enough to get any beginner on the same playing field, so they can start toying with the more nuanced or complex concepts in the investing universe.


While we don’t agree with the exact definitions of all of the terms, the list is adequate enough to get any new investor off the ground. It covers basic order terms like “bid”, “ask”, and “volume”, but it also goes into concepts like “authorised shares”, “secondary offerings”, “yield”, and a security’s “moving average”.
