Description

What you'll learn in this investing class:

Learn the fundamentals of stocks and bonds in this course. We'll cover the basics of stock prices and valuations, financial statements, and bonds using real-world examples from publicly traded companies.

Learn what moves stock prices and how stocks are valued by investors.

We will analyze recent earnings releases and valuation multiples of companies such as Google and Apple to provide a framework for fundamental investment research.
