    If you don;t know anything about share market then best thing is take to a broker. You have to have a broker anyway to share stocks, so why not take free advice from brokers. Most of the time Brokers make money when u make money. I would prefer a local broker to online broker. Local broker can be reached via phone or in person and u can rely on his/her advice.
    Hope this helps
