Course Description

Do you plan on trading biotech stocks?

Do you want to learn how to identify promising healthcare stocks?

Do you want to professionally read a company pipeline?

Do you want to know where to get all the relevant info for biotech/healthcare company evaluation?

Do you want to tailor your investment strategy towards a healthcare portfolio?

Those are just some of the question you will learn in this tutorial!

The biotech industry can be highly rewarding if you, as an investor, know how to read the signs. Healthcare is a highly relevant topic to all of us. In various stages of our lives we get costumers of healthcare companies. Ranging from simple over the counter (OTC) pain killers to high tech antibodies, biotech does all the development work to finally provide us with the medical support we need.

The whole drug market will reach 1 TRILLION USD of sales in the next years. It is a gigantic market, which is highly influencing our economy. So far it is mainly the sphere of investment funds, banks and insurances who have highly educated staff to properly read the signs.

It is a risky industry to invest in. Often times we see hit or miss events, with either huge stock price gains or losses. To protect yourself against clueless trading and the superiority of institutional traders, it is important to get proper training first.

Biotech training material and education for the private investor is hard to find. With this unique course you will learn the principles that lead the whole healthcare sector. If you understand how drug development works, you will be able to read the signs and make sound decisions.

If you want to earn more money with healthcare and biotech stocks, I would highly recommend to take this course. Understand the principles of healthcare first, so that you have the power to make your own decisions and not rely on external sources!

I traded biotech stocks for a long time wihout any basic knowledge how drug development works, this course was very helpful and well presented!

By Arie Blitz on 6/9/2024

The course was good, but way too brief and it is dated. There should be an updated version of the course. In addition, the topics could have been dealt with in much more detail. In addition, it would be nice to have had statistics regarding the likelihood of success for each of the trial phases. However, the instructor did a good job in explaining the material, although this was too superficial for a complex topic. I did not learn anything new.

By Thomas Gentil on 9/14/2020

This is a very superficial course, very very basic. I am sure 95% of everything that is here can be found online for free. That being said, I don´t think it was worth paying for such basic information. On the other hand, the teacher is very organized and concise in his course format, so its a great " summary" or intro course to biotech investing if you are lazy to research all of this online.

Lots of information for a person who has very little knowledge of health sector, it does not give you direction on how to narrow down the best stocks to watch

By Nizar Assanie on 9/20/2019

Basic information. I know this stuff

By Michael Domin on 1/16/2018

I knew a limited amount about the the Biotech industry but this course really enlightened me. Everything is explained. Excellent instructor. I feel the best way to make money in the stock market is to concentrate on a particular industry. I highly recommend the course. Mike d.

One of the best courses on biotech Udemy.It is a great course for a trader who is interested in trading biotech stocks and still is a beginner.A truely fundamental course.Take it!

By Seojun Hong on 7/20/2016

It shares many resources that are worthwhile. One thing I do not like about is the delivery method. Most of the lectures are delivered through monoscript by the lecturer with an open powerpoint slides. Those two fail to complement each other well.

By Jim Field on 2/18/2016

Great overview of the Bio Industry. Interesting to see from start to finish the process involved in getting drugs to market. In addition, how to make a little money along the way as an investor.

By Sue Hendrick on 4/26/2015

This course was very helpful to actually feel more confident in selecting biotech and pharma stocks. So far I was very sceptical about that sort of stocks - they are very risky. This course helped me a lot to develop a biotech stock strategy. Nice work!
