Fundamental equity analysis is the style of investing used by Warren Buffet, Julian Robertson, George Soros, Bill Ackman, Carl Icahn and Seth Klarman. It is the most consistent style of investing ever developed, but it is also the style of investing that is the most difficult to master.

Why is learning how to invest properly crucial and what are universities actually covering?

a. Finance Degrees – largely theoretical information taught by professors who are functionally economists largely driven by the EMH or academic financiers who are often focused on purely quantitative analysis.

b. Liberal Arts Degrees – no specificity in stock picking, finance or accounting.

c. Commerce Degrees – some engagement with basic finance concepts but no stock picking.

Result? Weakness in stock picking ability in young people in general, and a requirement for people to develop skills on the job at investment firms or in MBA programs. For even the most equipped finance graduates, there is still an immense gap between your skillset at graduation, and the skillset required to begin 
There is a quantum leap between commerce and finance degrees and successful equity investing. 
In short, this 2-Day Bootcamp will best prepare you for the skillset to begin a job at an investment firm.
