This program gave a lot of information regarding the investment.

Before joining this webinar, I had an virtual account to virtually invest on certain company instead of investing using the real money. I had the difficulties on deciding and selecting which company should I invest to as there are a lot of company in there. Some suggestions were given by my friends on which companies could be invest on as they may give much profit after some period by looking and at the line graph and based on some calculation and so on. Although they gave me suggestion and explaining about investment, I still have no much ideas on that.
After joining this webinar, the speaker explain the investment from fundamental, thus this helped me a little on understanding about investment. The rest of the knowledge have to think critically by myself on how to find the right strategy, how to do the calculation on the assets, liabilities, equity and so on. Adaptation is needed to adapt on the company that I had invested. I have to think quickly to continue buying or selling it before I get any lost on the money that I invested. Besides, I learnt that to find investment grade companies, 4 aspects have to be focused are consistent profit growth, little debt, strong cash flow and increasing dividend.
