My advice is to buy indexes early on since the work for active investing isn’t worth the reward. Maybe start learning a few things and trade a small portfolio with a small number of things to look at, but I’d focus more on your career and real life until you get to a decent pile to manage.

You’re welcome.
This doesn’t mean never think about this.
I’d recommend spending a little time on podcasts like Market Huddle or MacroVoices and watching the free stuff on Real Vision to start getting a grounding. Maybe do a few trades to get your feet wet. This is a part time job for me now, but I’m managing 20 years worth of accumulated wealth.
But you’re probably at a stage in your investing career where your best returns are on increasing income and increasing your ability to save.
buy a S&P mutual fund and set it and forget it.
New to investing should always start out slow and in an index fund. Study the market and never put full amount of investable money in at one time. Dollar cost average over 3-6 months or whatever you want.

My opinion the best is to put majority in index funds and find one or two growth companies that you were interested in. This way you can have a little bit more skin in the game and keep
It exciting and maybe get lucky and  hit it big down the road.
