Further modules dive into the extremes of investing, dividend income stocks, and value stocks, supplemented by detailed case studies and examples. The concept of Growth at a Reasonable Price (GARP) and the principles of technical analysis, including core concepts, chart patterns, and drawing trend lines, are meticulously covered.
Special sessions on analyzing financial ratios, such as debt interest coverage and efficiency ratios, include real-world demos. Learn how to use stock screeners, both basic and advanced, and go through guided demonstrations on buying various types of stocks, from dividend to growth.
The final sections delve into the technical and fundamental aspects of investing. Key concepts such as drawing trend lines, head and shoulders, and cup with handle patterns are discussed.
