Understanding the Stock Market

I am not sure about your financial condition, but I need to do some work to recover from heavy losses in the last 16 to 18 months of stock market ups and downs... After investing most of my 401k's, 403b's into what I thought will really help me avoid losses (and I am of the risky type) I have recently started to rethink how I am understanding the stock market.

There are many investors making record profits just as often--but many financial experts say it is important that you understand the ins and out of today's fluctuations and what all of that fuss is about. The stock market is no longer the same as it was years ago.

To understand today's stock market I am reading the following websites:

And although, I have had losses, at the same time I do have a "risky" button inside of me so I am also researching how to invest in low priced stocks - penny stocks. Now, I know that most of you will not agree with me but I do believe in having several streams of income.

We are working to retire. We are working to live on vacation permanently. If you join me in this journey then we both will have more than one source of income to have a "vacation" lifestyle that we dream of... anyhow it will be most important to work on understanding the Stock Market today.

I need all your help so leave a comment. Thanks.
