What students say about the course:
“Hi my name is Pavel and I’m a psychologist and a counselor which is very different from investing and so I was like hey, maybe this is not for me because I’m trying to be the best at my profession, but I wanted to learn how to invest and so I bought The Investing Course and I was completely blown away because before when I tried to learn investing it felt like a chore but this feels like a hobby. I absolutely love Mikael Syding’s style and Ludvig Sunstrom because I read his blog for over ten years now. I think it’s the best course about stocks on the internet because of their method of valuing investments. The course is 10 out of 10. In my free time my favorite thing to do over the last two weeks is actually to do the investing course. It’s it’s my favorite hobby now. When I’m not working on my clients or working on my business I learn how to invest. Before I tried learning to invest from YouTube but it wasn’t nearly as much fun so I can highly recommend the course to anyone.”

“Hi, my name is Henrik and I recently completed The Investing Course by Mikael Syding & Ludvig Sunstrom. I learned a lot from this course and found it comprehensive but at the same time well presented. I like how Syding simplifies all of these complex investment concepts. I also found the teachers responsive and I liked the fact that every week there was a lot of practical examples and tasks that really made me understand all these concepts from the bottom up. I can recommend this online course for anyone interested in stocks, equity markets and value investing in general. I will use this knowledge in the future for my private investments and also for my career.”
—Henrik Gateman
“My main reason for participating in this course was actually not to become an investor, but rather to learn what an investor looks for when valuing a company. Because I have my own company and wanted to know how to maximize its value in the eyes of an investor. So that was my main reason. Karl-Mikael Syding gave me great support and I was positively surprised that his support extended beyond the course material, regarding questions for my own company. To sum up, when it comes to the setup and content the course was really great, but when it comes to the engagement it was just outstanding.”

“I’m René from Germany. I can recommend the course to anyone who isn’t sure whether you should do it or not just because you aren’t a finance professional, or because you don’t think you have time due to being full-time employee. I’m a normal engineer who works full-time and I was able to complete the course during the weekends or after work. So it’s absolutely possible. After the course you will be able to navigate the world of finance and investing. You will have powerful Watchlists with potential stocks to invest in when opportunities present themselves. I’m looking forward for the next years and decades for reaping the benefits of this course.

❝ The Investing Course at London Business School exceeded my expectations. The content is relevant both for students who want to sharpen their investing skills and those who aspire to work in an equity research role. Mikael covered a wide range of materials, such as finding investing ideas, valuation, risk assessment, and portfolio management. In addition to the presentations, the slides and written materials were packed with valuable concepts. ❞

Also from Pavel:
“The Google Sheets watchlist is absolutely amazing! I am amazed I was actually able to build this as I am a lifelong Excel analphabet. The tutorial was masterfully written and I actually found it easy. This course made me so motivated to invest that I actually feel like studying investing is a hobby to me thanks to it and not a drain, because of how well laid out everything is.”
❝ I had the opportunity to attend The Investing Course when I did my Masters in Finance at LBS. The Course covers investing in stocks from start to finish. I believe attending the course will be beneficial for people with relatively advanced knowledge of investing as well as those of you who are just starting your journey as investors. This is a unique opportunity to gain insight into the investment process of a successful hedge fund manager, engage in the discussions with him and even challenge him. I found Mikael’s sessions engaging and fun and would highly recommend the course to anyone who has an interest in investing. ❞

“Mikael and Ludvig deliver excellent educational material. In addition to The Investing Course, I have also attended other financial courses, such as Technical Analysis and Options Strategies. The Investing Course definitely provides the most value out of the courses I’ve taken. One big benefit is the access to the course teachers and their willingness to provide feedback and share their advice. If you create new courses I’d be interested in joining them as well.”

Greetings from Germany! I have invested for about five years now and study economics parallel to my main job. The course was a lot of work but good to understand with lots of learnings for me. The +300 resource database is amazing as well.
I want to thank you guys for this!
To do a complete research with fundamentals and valuations multiples for each stock is still a challenge for me but I trust the “investing Ouroborus” and believe in making step-by-step improvements.

“I was one of the students of Mikael Syding and Ludvig Sunstrom in The Investing Course. I’m very happy with the course and would take it again. It exceeded my expectations. I have been able to get close to 200% returns on a few investments that I have made over roughly 6 months.”
