What is important to learn to be able to invest well in the stock market?

I wonder what I shall learn to make money in the stock market. Value investing, small cap investment, technical analysis, modern portfolio theory? and the list goes on. Do I need to know all of them to invest? Or just some of them and learn from experience?
