Long and Short – 72 Stories to Unravel Stock Markets

Seventy-two short stories stand in for the usual investing textbook, each one using a situation from the market to explain a single idea. Long and Short: 72 Stories to Unravel Stock Markets, compiled by Groww, moves from the basics of how shares are bought and priced through the rhythm of market cycles, the management of risk, and spreading holdings across a portfolio. The narrative format keeps the concepts concrete, and because each story stands alone the book can be read in order or opened anywhere. Attention is given to investor psychology, the reasons markets behave unpredictably, and the habits that separate steady investors from anxious ones. For the curious reader: • Seventy-two self-contained stories, each explaining one market concept • Coverage running from first principles to cycles and diversification • Plain treatment of market psychology and investor behaviour • A format that suits short reading sessions and revisiting For beginners in personal finance and readers improving their market literacy. Published by Bloomsbury and stocked at Boipoka.
