>I'm new to the stock market, what stocks should I buy?
Before you buy anything, make a brokerage account and read investopedia articles and/or the books in the OP list. If you don't have a broker, you can't buy stocks, and if you blindly buy things without understanding how the stock market works or doing any research on the individual stocks you're buying, you will lose money and it will be entirely your fault.

Interesting
I vaguely remember reading some negative comments about gold, but I can't recall what they said
PHO is a water ETF, I like the idea of investing in water because regardless of how the economy is doing, everyone needs water to survive, grow food, and not have to dig a hole in their yard to shit
If you think about it, it has much more real world value than gold ever could (even though it's used in a lot of computing technology)

the US' water infrastructure is crumbling and needs to be replaced, and africa is in dire need of water infrastructure
water is vital for survival, agriculture, and sanitation, and is used in a variety of industries, such as the refinement of petroleum and the production of chemicals and paper
investing in water is making a long term bet on a limited commodity that's becoming increasingly scarce and is literally the backbone of human civilization
