Curious about getting into the stock market and found this. Anyone have a pdf of this or something? Says it's only 95 pages. Thinking of buying this if nobody else has a pdf and uploading it for shits and giggles lmao

        The stock market is basically gambling and designed to serve the bourgeoisie. Better to read theory than books on "how to make money".

        The entirety of "this kind of topic" is selling the book to people who want to learn to make money, thereby making the author money and leaving them with no incentive to give actual advice.

        i don't. the gist of the book -- and i'll emphasize again that "gist" is all there is because it's ai generated drivel -- is that if you consider the material basis of the value of companies when making investment decisions, you'll probably come out ahead against people who are swayed by the empty promises of vaporware. start by reading actual theory, even something short like wages, price, and profit and just apply that to whether you think a company will be worth investing in, and it'll be a better use of your time.

          And even that is abdominal advice.

          The stock market often is counterintuitive to material analysis.

          Tesla is the highest valued car company in America.

          Games top is a hot stock because a bunchnof nerds figured out mass market manipulation, they're brilliant material analysis was to start selling nfts, somehow their stock remains high.

            sure, it depends on what your goals are. if i recall correctly, the book even has a section on fictitious capital that's formatted as 5 paragraphs with an introductory paragraph and conclusion paragraph and 3 paragraphs in the middle of restating a few definitions of fictitious capital and how marxist investors need to take this in to account when making investment decisions.
