Depends on how quick is quick. Beating the market is not all that hard. Most big funds try to make better than 10% a year. I've personally averaged a little over 90% a year over 7 yeasrs on a small portfolio as a hobby investor trading penny stocks with a fundamental value strategy. The idea is to find companies that consistently make more money than the current market price is giving them credit for, buy those, and wait. In six months to a year if you were right about the stock it will reach its real value somewhere in that time frame, two years if you're unlucky. NOTE: it takes a lot of research to beat the market.

If I asked you if you could play on a pro baseball team or be a neurosurgeon you would say, "no." Why, though, do you assume you can master the market so easily?
