It all starts with the fundamental building blocks of value investing.

The course begins with the most fundamental elements of investing and financial analysis -- the financial statements. After gaining an understanding for the purpose, structure, theory, and application of the income statement, balance sheet and statement of cash flow, we move on to the meat of the course.

We develop and apply our 11-step methodology for analyzing and understanding any company.

Lastly, we take a step back and look at the big picture. We'll share our philosophy and some great resources for discovering investment opportunities on your own. We will discuss our methods for sourcing potential investment ideas--we avoid the mainstream media and seek to find opportunities before they make the headlines. At the end of the section you'll find yourself identifying companies all around you ripe for an investment.
