Students are Saying…
As a finance student, I owned some preliminary knowledge regarding markets and investing. However, I wanted to learn various investment methods and techniques that school could never teach me. Investopedia Academy’s Research and Trade Like The Pros course taught me how to analyze companies and currencies on a professional level. I definitely have a better understanding of how elite hedge fund managers invest.
