MoneyWeek videos are designed to help you become a better investor, and to give you a better understanding of the markets. They’re aimed at both beginners and more experienced investors.
In all our videos we explain things in an easy-to-understand way. Some videos are about important ideas and concepts. Others are about investment stories and themes in the news. The emphasis is on clarity and brevity. We don’t want to waste your time with a 20-minute video that could easily be so much shorter.
Thank you🙏🏽
We’ve already made over 200 financial videos and we add more each week. You can see the full archive here at MoneyWeek videos.
God bless you so much

epic use of the word “beast“ LMAO. Great video.
@madbowler6somebody should explain me what is the benefit for society as a whole in allowing speculation on futures. If you are not interested in selling after having produced aluminium or buying aluminium in order to allow final good production then no other party should be allowed in gambling on the aluminium price
@nicolagianaroli2024Thanks.

@md.arsalasif7522thank you
@official_gidz3236So it's gambling within a plan that so convoluted that no one thinks it's gambling, and no product actually changes hands akin to a "Pyramid Scheme" and in the end the Brokerage makes millions regardless of any participant's outcome. I don't understand why this legal. Just seems like a giant con set up by the brokers to fleece the players.
@alancosensDerivatives Lawyer here. This is a very good explanation in only 20 minutes!

@swsphongmey959Gotta love the Casino mechanism - gambling -, that is the Stock Market. Anyone that have the arrogance to say they know where the flow is going is practically saying they know the future (in the likes of Nostradamus or someone similar). As no-one knows the future how can anyone predict anything? Well the most thick brains with less than 2 cells left beaming in their skull will tell you that ''the historical data is a good signal to where the market is going.." or such similar non-sense. Good luck!
