How To Pick Winning Stocks is based on my 30 years’ experience as a hedge fund partner and stock analyst.
After taking this course, you’ll be able to tap a steady stream of good stock ideas and judge any company’s investment merits.
And as a result, you’ll be able to buy stocks with the odds in your favour.
Here are just some of the approaches you’ll learn:
The simple investing theme that nets big returns over 2-3 years
Why the accepted wisdom on buying industry leaders is wrong
The single best place to hunt big jumps in stock price
How to find quality companies to hold for the long-term
Why buying good companies at the first sign of trouble can backfire
The course has six modules that show you how to:
Source stock ideas
Eliminate bad ones
Assess a company’s quality
Analyse an industry
Analyse a company
Evaluate management
These skills will make your investing process stronger than ever.
And by following my lessons and case studies, you can sharpen these skills at your own pace.
What our students say:
"As someone who has been investing for several years and who has participated in several analysis and investing programmes, this is the first course I have encountered that pulls the whole process of industry and company analysis together in a clear, helpful and above all practical manner. From analysis of financial statements to the significance and impact of industry structure on company values, I have found this course to be incredibly helpful. It's also the first course I've come across which actually discusses the practicalities of price catalysts from an institutional perspective outlined for the individual investor."
Garry, Surrey, Private Investor
“I'm enjoying the course and how you go through an analysis of a company. I really like learning with real-world examples - and learning from someone who does this sort of thing for a living / has done so in the past, as it's not just theory.”
