SoI was looking for books to read on the stock market of Nepal, and this particular book was the first one I found. This book is very popular, and the author has written many other books in both English and Nepali languages.

Because of its popularity, I wanted to see what was inside the book. Also, having written an ebook on the same topic, I was curious. So I bought the book. It was a small book (around 100 pages), so it took me less than an hour to complete it.

You will learn the basic idea about how the stock market works. Mr. Bhattarai has clearly explained the concepts of primary and secondary markets. Further, he has also provided information on what investors need to learn before investing in these markets.

It is not for professional investors. Also, most of the management students might have already learned these concepts in their academic courses. So students who have studied finance in BBS, BBA, or MBA might not need to read this book.

I, for instance, already knew more than 90 percent of the concepts in this book. It is because I have been investing in the market for years. Only a few concepts and terminologies were new to me. So this book is not for someone like me.

Mr. Bhattarai has explained the concepts of derivatives, short selling, and OTC (over-the-counter) markets. But he has not properly clarified that these are currently not applicable in the stock market of Nepal.

Lastly, he has used many Warren Buffett quotes in the book, which I think is overly done. He could have used quotes from other finance gurus like Peter Lynch, Benjamin Graham, Charlie Munger, George Soros, and more.

Mr. Bhattarai explains fundamental and technical analysis concepts but does not explain how one can learn such analysis. He also fails to explain what criteria investors should check when picking stocks.

Overall, the book is a good read for anyone interested in the capital market. But like I said, if you are already an experienced investor or have been involved in the market for a while, the concepts will not be new to you.

A quick disclaimer: This article is my personal view of the book. I do not intend to influence anyone to buy or not buy this book. This is not a sponsored post (although it would have been cool had this been a sponsored post).
