Investment Philosophies

About this course

Beginner • 11 hours • Certificate of completion

Stop chasing tips. Start understanding markets. This class, taught by valuation expert Aswath Damodaran, strips investing down to its core: a coherent philosophy. You’ll dissect how markets make mistakes—overreacting, underreacting, mispricing risk—and learn the systematic ways to exploit those errors.

The material ranges from value investing to growth investing, from active trading to passive indexing. Damodaran doesn’t just tell you what works; he shows you why it works and, just as importantly, where it fails. Each philosophy is tested against real market behavior.

By the end, you’ll have a framework to build your own approach—or refine the one you already use. You’ll know which strategies fit your temperament and which to avoid. No fluff, no hype. Just the hard truths about how money is actually made (and lost) in markets.
