When it comes to investing, most new investors are scared of one thing - losing money.

That's why we've decided to talk about the 5 biggest mistakes we made when we first started investing in the stock market.

These mistakes might have resulted in us losing thousands of pounds, but they taught us lessons that will last a lifetime!

As Warren Buffett said: "It's good to learn from your mistakes. It's better to learn from other people's mistakes" - so we hope you'll be able to learn from our mistakes and become a better investor thanks to week's episode of The Stocks and Savings Podcast.

What is a company "worth"?  We are tackling this question in a multi-part series, starting with valuation 101.  We walk through the three primary methods of valuation: the discounted cash flow model ("DCF"), public comparables, and precedent transaction/acquisition comparables analysis....and explore how they fit together on what's called a Football Field.  Also, we explore the meaning behind the jargon you hear about all the time ---Iike EPS and P/E ratios --- but might not fully understand!

In this age of algorithms and quants, you hear less and less about good old stock picking. You know, like the style of investing associated with Warren Buffet or Benjamin Graham. But that doesn't mean you can't still dive into a balance sheet or cash flow statement in order to divine a stock's true worth. On this week's Odd Lots we speak to Aswath Damodaran, a professor at NYU's Stern School of Business, and the foremost expert on stock valuation. He explains his general approach to valuing stocks, and how he might use that framework on companies like GE, Tesla, and Uber.

‘If you've ever wondered how you get triangles from a cow,’ sang British music legends Half Man Half Biscuit, ‘you need butter milk and cheese and an equilateral chain saw. ‘

It’s obvious when you know the answer!

But what about the stuff you think you know the answers to… but do you? Really? The Big Money Questions.

That’s the name of our fortnightly video presentation with Rachel Rickard Straus and a host of exceptional guests from the worlds of economics, business, the City and the bookshelves.

In a departure from our usual round-up of the week’s money events, this week we introduce you to an audio version of the show.

The question: What are stocks and shares?

And related…

What’s the difference between a stock and a share?

Is that different from a bond?

Why do they exist?

Why are they different prices?

What makes the prices move?

How do you know if it’s worth buying them?

Dividends? Huh?

Forget the cheese - this stuff is whey too important to ignore.

Listen, learn, enjoy.
