Hasn't this so called "professor" ever heard of technical analysis? Also, he interchanges the use of the word "trader" with "investor". Shouldn't be teaching. Thoughts? http://www.news.uiuc.edu/news/07/0920investing.html
great video, but unrelated to the original posting. that professor is no different from any other who has studied investing for x aount of years. they don't understand what trading is, and they believe that fundamentals drive the market even though they rewrite the book on fundamentals every time the market changes. it is sad they never understand that it is herd following and a pyramid game from which investors proffit, not the proper allocation of equity towards worthy corporations.
you know I get so sick of noobs where do these kids come from he asks does TA work jesus H christ take me take me now
We've found that so many local classes were being taught by stockbrokers, who basically know nothing about the markets or trading. About 10 years ago, we found a way to "give back" to the Community by teaching a legitimate class. We might attract traders, but only a miniscule percentage. We teach trading but, we also try to teach people how to get rid of their brokers and learn how to do things themselves. The largest professional stock trading firm in the U.S. is located in Las Vegas. Bright Trading® has joined with CSN to provide you with a great opportunity. ! Don
My first thought is that you need to read more carefully. That professor never mixed the terms investor and trader. If you notice those words weren't in quotes, meaning the reporter paraphrased him. So those are the reporter's words. This is an investment article.
