What will happen to my stock portfolio..
would say nothing at all since the only thing that you are worried as a stock market for beginners is that since you will have all the bets spread out in a portfolio. Nothing will happen.
See my stock portfolio is spread out between defensive and aggressive stocks and cyclical and non cyclical stocks so nothing will happen.
That is not to say that I will lose money on it. I will in all probability lose money but will be able top bounce back as the stock portfolio is not that something you create and forget. You will have keep reevaluating the portfolio based on the market and economy changes.
Unless of course you are one of those types who will buy a share and forget it for a few years and then one day you check the value and it is worth a million dollars!
As newbie you can have a stock portfolio built on a number of sites that offer the facility say Excite, Yahoo and several other firms.
If you have an online brokerage account with a firm then you can build your portfolio there as that can get updated there and then with the trades that you do.
You can also create a special home page that tracks your stock portfolio on any portal which you visit frequently.
Also make sure that you add yourself the bonus and the market splits that happen as most these my stock portfolio sites will never have the feature to automatically update the corporate action happening on the stocks

How To Understand Supply And Demand as Applied To Bulls and Bears
Well as stock market for beginners you will always see examples being given of a particular stock or the market as in a bullish phase and the sometimes in a bearish phase.
As in the real world everything is based on the supply and demand . You see the prices of crude going up because there is demand from the countries like India and China.
So the price of a particular stock will go up because there is demand an why the stock will go up because there is some good news coming for the stock and that will usually mean that there is huge demand . So huge demand means less supply as people who are holding this stock are not willing to sell so that means bullish phase and more demand and hence the demand and supply situation.
Bulls and bears also means someone is optimistic about the stock or the market or someone is pessimistic about the stock or the market.
It is this supply and demand situation which causes the stock market variations and money to be made by people.
