You might notice the prices here are higher than is typically found in other places. The reason is that I am not teaching straight out of a textbook or using old examples. Each lesson comes with analyzing a current investable idea that I have been studying for weeks. You aren't paying to learn a couple of ratios or methods. You are paying for the countless hours researching through hundreds of stocks to shortlist a few that fit a particular requirement... that is, it's undervalued and has a good chance of beating the broad indices this year. If my thesis is correct, the stock idea could potentially pay for your entire course fee, which is what I am hoping for you.

Then, I am custom tailoring the principles of fundamental analysis and technical analysis to understand the investment idea of that stock. This is to help shorten your "motivation" curve, to drive home important concepts while not getting lost in the weeds.

In short, I'm not just teaching you some fundamental analysis and some technical analysis, I'm teaching you which methods are better to use to value different stocks, sharing the intangibles of stock selection... from how to find good ideas, to showing how to create a story to an investment idea. Topping all of this education is five case studies that might be investible today.

There aren't automated courses for those intangibles.

I'm not going for quantity, but quality and will be capping each session at the first 8 people.

 

PDFs of slides will be provided as well as supplementary datasheets.

The course entitles each participant to two half-an-hour one-on-one Zoom appointments to ask any question outside of the course day itself.

Those who sign up for the full course will receive all the trading ideas straight away, even before that session is due.

The lessons also come from my perspective as a markets and equities analyst that did some quant work, and from my experience of beating the markets as a professional fund advisor. 80% of the content you see here might look the same as from cheaper courses, but it's the 20% that is different that makes all the difference. Click here for a sample of my publically published work that has made investors significant money.
