After browsing, I noticed that in addition to investment literature, there was a thread for podcasts. However, I didn’t find any videos, so I thought I’d open a separate thread for them too. At the same time, the first recommendation is Damodaran’s materials on YouTube. In stock valuation, he is, to my understanding, one of the absolute top names in the world, and the best videos strongly support the teachings of his books. As a generous person, his channel includes, among other things, the valuation course he teaches at a top university.

Videos can also be included in one post, preferably directly related to investing. Musicals can be linked to the Coffee Room if there is a compelling need to do so.
At least in my opinion, Ben Felix makes really high-quality videos about investing. All the videos I’ve watched have referred to several scientific studies, and no pseudoscience or investment courses are sold in them.
If corona makes you nervous and Verneri’s reassurances weren’t enough, here’s more (and a lot of other good stuff too):
What investment-related channels do you follow on YouTube?
Nordnet Finland
Inderes TV
Invest with Sven Carlin, Ph.D
Mika Hyttinen
Uni Of Helsinki (Economic Crises)
These are a few regulars. Occasionally, everything I’m currently researching. I also try to follow the webcasts, etc., of companies I own.
A new series has just been released on the Nordnet Finland YouTube channel.

I just listened to a few videos from the YouTube Interactive Investor channel. I’ve invested in the Buffettology fund myself, so it was naturally a pleasure to find these videos. Keith Ashworth-Lord has been in the market for a long time, and I like his style of investment communication. Every month, there’s an update on what’s been done and why. It’s nice to be a part of it as a monthly saver.
If you’re generally looking for video-based company analyses (mainly of American companies), I highly recommend the YouTube channel of news channel CNBC:
https://www.youtube.com/c/CNBC/videos
CNBC produces really high-quality ~10-20 minute videos about current publicly traded companies. The language is, of course, English, but if your language skills aren’t excellent, most videos also include English subtitles to aid understanding.
Mika Hyttinen’s thoughts on investing.
SNN Network

In addition, Smallcap Discoveries, already mentioned in the thread, is among my favorites.
Hyttinen’s lectures.
Hyttinen’s speeches sometimes sound a bit restless. For example, is value investing bad because an investor cannot control prices? This sounds like the talk of someone speculating with options: if the price doesn’t rise, the call option expires worthless, and your belief in intrinsic value was wrong. Hyttinen doesn’t reveal this, but I know from previous videos that he engages in options speculation. This framework should be made clear before dismissing any investment method, which are generally meant to work over long, multi-year time horizons.
In principle, any stock can rise sharply in the short term, and rejecting strategies based on this sounds like suitable casino behavior for the current times. The problem is that no price increase can be predicted. You find some never-heard-of biotech, technology, or energy company struggling with losses, buy the stock, and then wait for hype to catch on while continuous share issues explode. 90% probability you lose 90% of your money, 10% probability the stock quintuples, EV -0.41x. Only those who win the lottery tell their stories.
Regarding the topic of the thread, Danske Bank released a webinar a couple of days ago that goes through building a stock portfolio and key financial ratios. The guests are Svenne Holmström, education manager for the Finnish Shareholders’ Association (Osakesäästäjät), and Juha Laakso, portfolio manager at Danske Bank. The benefit derived from webinars is sometimes questionable, but this one is suitable for a stock picker who knows the basics. I personally liked it.

Grand Master Charles Munger’s open Zoom discussion tomorrow. Will be uploaded to YouTube later:

Hyttinen’s fourth lecture.
If a golf ball goes into the woods, it has nothing to do with bad luck. There is always either a problem in the making (process) that causes a large variation, or a specific reason, where the doing is perfectly fine, but an external variable that could not be anticipated came into play.
It’s the same with investing, Lady Luck has nothing to do with it. I saw a statue of blind Lady Luck at the Monaco casino - it was made of stone, so it affects nothing. Everything has its cause-and-effect relationship.
The Monkey Throwing Darts Invests in Stocks.
Welcome to follow my journey as a stock investor. Every month, I blindly throw a dart at one stock from the Helsinki Stock Exchange, which I then buy for approximately 500 euros.
In addition to this, something is coming where you, the viewer, will get to influence the stock selection decisions. So, it’s worth subscribing to the YouTube channel and staying tuned!
