youtubes probably the worst place to learn.
if you don't want to read a book then dedicate a week to learn about how the stock market works and how to properly analyse a stock and a company.
Never trust someone elses DD to be good, especially if it's on youtube/social media, always do your own.
Then books aren't going to help either. At least with Youtube he can see multiple different people approaching DD for a massive variety of stocks. YT or video in general is probably better for most things that require detailed explanations. Plus the big platforms all have videos on there too so you can learn how the specific platform works.
That being said, Naked Trader is a decent read, I found it more for entertainment rather than real trading information.
Is it just me or are there very few interesting UK companies? I only invest in the US but it saddens me since I am British.
Where are our exciting exciting tech companies? It just seems our economy is so stale, stuck in it's old way and not forward thinking. Insurance or services are not exciting.
Well just look at the people in this thread to see general UK attitudes towards risk and investing, then you get an idea as to why UK and European shares tend to be perceived as 'boring'
the only UK tech I'm in at the moment is Blue Prism and Keyword Studios.
