You don't really need to know very much because you are not investing in individual stocks, you are in effect buying the sock market as a whole, which has a long history of increasing in value albeit with some volatility.
For someone your age a world stock market index fund (covers both the US and foreign stocks) or a total stock market index fund (covers domestic stocks) is an easy way to invest at a low cost. Many of us here are partial to Vanguard, but Fidelity and Schwab seem to also be pretty good.
