H226: Introduction to Investing in Splash! 2008 (Oct. 04, 2008)

This course will present a basic introduction to investing. We will begin with broader, portfolio-oriented questions, such as "why invest?" and "what are stocks, bonds, etc?" Then we will focus on stocks, asking why stocks are valuable, and looking at a stock to see if it is worth its price. The last quarter of the class will be devoted to questions about investing and the current investing climate. Some of the course will be math-oriented, but advanced knowledge is not necessary.
