  8. Stocks shouldn’t be going down with all the good news. There’s no
    leadership in the market.

  9. Understanding Culture

    I don’t understand your accent!

  10. When I’m his age I want to look as good as he does.

  11. there is 1 thing I don’t understand about compound interest: example; you
    buy 1000 euro of shares of say google, they rise gradually throughout the
    years but how does compound interest fit in this picture? does he mean when
    the company pays you dividend each year? Because if you own those shares
    for 40 years or so and they drop back to the original price, you won’t have
    those amounts of money he’s talking about.

  12. very usefull. very energetic guy. admire him

  13. Are people really trying to argue with a man who’s made billions by using
    the methods he’s explaining here?

  16. informative…

  17. An awesome finance/investing tutorial by Bill Ackman. It’s longish….but
    if you need to understand the basics (for a Corporate Finance test, for
    example), this is a great start. And for the novice investor, it’s critical
    to understand the ‘blocking & tackling’ basics of corporate finance if you
    are to become a successful, long term investor.

  18. anybody else hear him sniff sniff lol.

  19. 7:11 The income statement does not include the cost of the new stands
    acquired each year, therefore the profit margin is an over estimate.

  20. Thanks for this!

  21. Thanks Bill! Great Overview of Investing. 

  22. Luis Miguel Solis Rosas Jr

    Cool video Thanks!

  23. 12:10 he’s wrong, options are not considered to be a form of equity,
    options are contracts that are based on the underlying asset of equity,
    thus options are really derivatives.

  24. This was a great lecture, well though out and easy to understand.
