I'll second this. Wikipedia is a great resource for this stuff.

Also, check out some of the common frameworks like Porter's 5 Forces, SWAT analysis, BCG Growth-Share matrix, and the GE-McKinsey matrix. There are a lot of free educational materials on these. I'd take it slow and steady, and try to focus on orienting your thinking to the questions asked by these frameworks.

Also, consider reading the Form 10Ks for some companies whose products you like. They have a section where they explain their market and their role in it.

Good luck!

Seconding the 10K readings! You don't have to read the entire thing, usually just Part 1. Part 2 and Part 3 still have good stuff, you just have to read a lot more to find the gems.
