I'm not sure I follow.

Mutual (and index) funds trade their NAV at the end of the day.

ETFs trade like stocks throughout the day.

I looked of SPY's expense ratio on Yahoo Finance, and looked up the expense ratio of the UBS fund in the prospectus using Google.

Transaction costs are a thing - many brokerages offer some no transaction fee funds, but if you buy outside that stable, they charge commissions, and i'm not sure why, but mutual fund commissions are usually a lot more than stock commissions. And now, there are lots of ways to get access to free stock and ETF trades.

The last bit about options was a little more in depth, but still (I thought) barely scratching the surface.

All I'm saying is the information is out there for everyone to find.

As for what I read, I don't even know anymore. A TON at one point. I also passed the Series 65 at one point, but never did much with it. But that was more to validate my knowledge than to create knowledge. And even though it sounds fancy ("Investment Advisor"), the test was 90% about legal and fiduciary duties, not about investments themselves - studying for the 65 won't net you much knowledge about options, trade commissions (except sternly telling you NOT to churn client accounts for your own benefit), and so forth.

Looking way back in my Amazon order history, here's a few interesting books:

Options as a strategic investment

Unconventional Success

Pioneering Portfolio Management

Bond Markets, Analysis, and Strategies (Cram101 Textbook Outlines (link doesn't work anymore)

There were a ton of other books, too, but I must have gotten them from places other than Amazon. But I think those three are great starting points.

The big thing is, Pioneering Portfolio Management was written for institutional investors, not us. It's still a good read. Unconventional Success is the same author applying it to regular people. I read both, but I'm not sure how well Unconventional Success stands on its own (maybe people who have read only that can chime in). And options are a great tool to learn more about; I know some people go crazy just trading calls in hopes of outsized gains, but I wouldn't recommend that. Mostly I like them because, at their simplest, they provide strategies for mitigating risk (either buying puts, or selling calls), but like i said, that risk mitigation can act as a headwind.

Hopee that's somewhat helpful?
