About this episode

In the third episode of our five-part series, the MyWallSt team shares our time-tested techniques that you’ll need to know to go about identifying great investment opportunities.

Some of the things we cover include:


  • How Peter Lynch's 'One Up on Wall Street' is the greatest investing resource we've ever encountered.
  • How to spot companies with great culture and visionary leaders.
  • Why competitive advantage is crucial for long-term success.
  • Some of the industries we think are set to grow over the next decade.


Not only do we want to help you get started investing with this educational podcast, but we want to go a step further and get you closer to your first portfolio of stocks. We’ve been picking market-beating stocks for over 10 years now, with a strategy based on long-term, mindful investing. 


So we’re giving you access to one free stock from our extensive library that we’ve built and added to over the years. This is an easy-to-digest report of a high-quality business we believe has all the characteristics to be a long-term winner. 


That’s right, a free stock pick just for you. Simply head over to mywallst.com to find out more.
