Global Money Flow Machine
Global money flow moves across the world every day in search of return, and this is the "Global Money Machine" in motion. We quantify in absolute dollars how large this pool of money is, where and how it is invested, what are its trends over the last two decades, and where money is getting its best return. We introduce the concepts of an Index fund and Alpha - the return investors seek over and above the return from a broad market index like the S&P 500. We look at risk-adjusted returns of various asset classes, as well as countries and regions. This is also an introductory course, with maximum benefit for a newcomer to financial markets. The course contains very interesting charts and data analysis.
