Description

Answering questions we've received from listeners via Instagram, TikTok and email!  This week's topics include: 1. Can you explain the different indices?  SPX, FTSE, DAX, NASDAQ, Barclays AGG…as an investor, why would you look at indices?  What do they mean/represent, and why do we have them?2. I’m building my first model, and trying to figure out how to connect the Income Statement, Cash Flow Statement and Balance Sheet.  Is there a particular order these should go in??  3. Two similar questions: a) is there any mobility into hedge funds or banks if you’re 10+ years into a career in tech/startups?  And b)  What about any insights on how JD grads can break into the financial services industry?4. Does and incremental increase in debt increase or lower the WACC?5. Why wouldn’t EVERYONE use interest rate swaps to hedge risk?  To have your question featured on our next Q&A episode, please email us at questions@wallstreetskinny.com or follow us on Instagram and send us a DM!Follow us on Instagram and Tik Tok at @thewallstreetskinnyFollow us on Instagram and Tik Tok at @thewallstreetskinnyhttps://www.instagram.com/thewallstreetskinny/
