What it covers
What your people will learn.
- Finance
In five weeks of 2020 shares fell by a third, and by August the main US index was back at its high. The expensive decision that spring was the sale.
Market news is built to hold attention, so a fall arrives as a stream of alerts, confident forecasts and urgent words. Very little of it touches what decides a long-term result, which is what you pay in, what you pay in fees, your mix and how long you stay invested.
This course shows how the news business works, how much weight a forecast deserves, what selling at the low costs in real figures, and why checking your balance often makes you invest worse. You learn one question that sorts every headline into market noise or news about you. The method holds in any country, with market examples from the US, Europe and Japan clearly labelled.
You walk away with a signed one-page plan: your mix, your reading habits, your rules for a 20% fall and the short list of events that can change it.
Who it's for
New investors: feel the urge to sell when a headline turns grim and want a rule that holds.
Long-term savers: hold index funds or a pension and want to stop checking the balance.
Anxious news readers: follow every market story and want a filter for what matters to them.
