Hey /biz/ business noobie here, 20 years old male going to community college in the usa, been on 4chan since 2008 and /biz/ since it opened.

I lived through the dot com bubble of the early 2000s and also the great recession and stock market collapse of 2008/2009
I know some of you may just say to read a book or lurk more but I would like /biz/nessmans help
As simply as you can can you guys explain to me how economics work as basically as you can, how the stock market works and regulates and what causes economic bubbles and prosperity and what causes economic slumps and recessions, please help me understand the basics of economics and the stock market and how the global economic system works and how stock markets run and are regulated, I'm an aspiring business major and potential entrepeneur who wants to learn the ins and out of finance and economics, thank!
