Understanding Methods and Models for Spotting Undervalued Stocks.
Building the right portfolio is tough! You have a limited budget and a seemingly endless number of stocks to choose from. How do you spot undervalued stocks in the market and know which ones should be added in the portfolio? In this class, we will discuss common methods for approaching stock valuation. We will discuss how valuation can vary based on the perspective of the investor, and what assumptions go into discounted cash flow models. We will also show where each model is most useful and where they fall short.
