On second thought, let me add 3 words before the word investing in the headline.

All naïve stock market investing boils down to these 3 questions.

Will the market go up or down?
Which stock should I buy?
When is the right time to invest? (Or is this the right time to invest?)

I know there are more, but the above 3 questions capture the essence of naïve stock market investing well enough.

What do you think?
