VALUATION AND ANALYSIS OF EQUITIES

About this Course

This course is designed to guide learners on the basics of fundamental analysis of investment in stocks of publicly listed companies. Although the stock market has a lot to offer to investors (i.e; dividends and capital gains), it is always known as one of the most risky investments. Therefore, stock investors are usually knowledgeable and guided in their investment decisions. Investing in a stock market without knowledge can lead to losses. This course covers four broad chapters of equity investment. It begins with an introduction to the investment environment and the explanation is focused on the perspective of the Malaysian stock market. Next, it emphasizes on the important concepts of investing in common stocks. Since all investments have common characteristics such as the acceptable rate of risk and the potential rate of return, this course also includes the discussion on measuring the investment return and risk. It also covers the aspects of fundamental analysis namely; economy analysis, industry analysis and company analysis. All these concepts are applied to estimate the value of the common stocks.
