At the present time, I have continued to read, The Five Rules For Successful Stock Investing and

feel that the authors methodology is clear in explaining the principles to investing and perfectly
reiterates the important concepts. By Reading the, The Five Rules For Successful Stock Investing,
I feel more confident in my fundamental analysis of companies, I have developed a sense of
what makes a company profitable, reflags to avoid, and how to apply principles of investing to
improve your portfolio. This week our group will present chapter 9(Valuation- The Basics) and
chapter 12(The 10 Minute Test), therefore our group has divided the work and will hopefully be
done with the PowerPoint presentation by Monday. Last class, we partly discussed the state of
the economy, the affects technology will have in innovation and how that will affect the stock
market. In light of this, I realized the stock market is continuously observing the real economy
and that innovation will have a huge impact on companies that will experience growth in the
stock market. With this in mind, I wonder how much impact will the 2020 elections have on the
stock market if a new candidate is elected, as this has been the longest bull run. At the
moment, I look forward to learning more about CalcBench and by reading the book it has
helped me analysis companies on a deeper level using the platform. In particular, the analytics
tools in Calcbench greatly reduces the amount of work in analyzing companies as it provides all
the metrics. Overall, I look forward to our presentations, learning about the platforms, and
creating out stock list recommendation portfolio.
