Are you often puzzled that sometimes the share price of a company plunges, but there is no fundamental change in its business and growth prospect?

It is because the price movement of a company is not only influenced by its business fundamentals. It is also affected by the macro environment and the sentiment. That's why in investing, we must focus on 3 critical elements: macroeconomic factors, industry dynamics, and individual company analysis. By analysing all these elements, you will gain a clearer, more strategic perspective on making investment decisions.

In this 1.5-hr webinar, you will:

✅ Understand the key drivers of stock market performance.
✅ Appreciate the 40-30-30 Formula: Explore how the allocation of 40% to macroeconomic factors, 30% to industry dynamics, and 30% to individual company analysis influences stock performance.
✅ Examine practical case studies demonstrating the impact of this formula in the stock market
✅ Understand how these factors intertwine to affect stock values and market trends.
This is a webinar hosted by LifeChamp for Bursa Malaysia on 11th September, 2024.
