Read? Safety Net in the Market?
"For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them." - Aristotle
(Aristotle is a towering figure in ancient Greek philosophy, making contributions to logic, metaphysics, mathematics, physics, biology, botany, ethics, politics, agriculture, medicine, dance and theatre.)
Likewise, stock investing is a life-time skill to be learned. You have to learn it by exactly doing it; and by doing it ONLY if you are fully aware that if you should fall at least there is a safety net to break your fall. It may not be so scary and dangerous as you have thought. May be you can start small e.g. 10-30% of your total saving and keep to that limit until you graduated from the Stock Market with a BSM.

Some of the small chinese food stocks look like bargains along with some of the chinese steel stocks. Unfortunately for those of you investing in stocks like Mcdonald's and Yum brands Apple computer that do lots of their business in china you can expect only mediocre investment returns over time. The really great returns in these type of stocks were made decades ago when they were small unknow companies unlike today. You can greatly reduce your risk investing in stocks if you stick to classic value investment methods. Which means buying companies that are trading far below what they are really worth.
