More about this course
  • The combination of all three takes the form of a consistent investment philosophy built not just on fundamental beliefs about how markets work (or fail to work), but one that fits an individual's personal strengths and weaknesses
  • In this course, students will look at a range of investment philosophies with the intent of finding not only the core beliefs that animate them, but also the ingredients needed to make them work
  • Students will look at the historical evidence in support of or working against each philosophy and what they need to bring to the table to succeed with that philosophy
