Existem diversos canais no Youtube com temas sobre investimentos e mercado financeiro. Indo de vídeos curtos sobre notícias, a podcast mais longos sobre temas específicos.Utilizo muito o Youtube como ferramenta de conhecimento, pois os criadores trazem assuntos quentes e do momento, essenciais para o mercado financeiro.Como dito acima, existem muitos criadores de conteúdo, mas é importante fazer uma filtragem para consumir o conteúdo. Busque entender a formação do criador, seu currículo e suas certificações.

Concordo que seguir redes sociais e fóruns online é uma estratégia valiosa para se manter atualizado nas tendências de investimento. Estas plataformas oferecem acesso a uma variedade de perspectivas e experiências, permitindo não apenas aprender com outros, mas também identificar novas tendências emergentes. É importante, contudo, manter um olhar crítico sobre as informações compartilhadas nesses espaços, uma vez que nem todas as opiniões ou conselhos podem ser baseados em análises profundas ou experiências relevantes. O networking nesses fóruns também pode ser uma oportunidade excelente para estabelecer conexões profissionais valiosas

The real secret to long term investment success, particularly if you have no interest in being a professional, is ignore the media and the headlines and focus on proven fundamentals of investing. Create a personal financial plan, so you know your financial outcome and ‘your number’ buy low cost index funds that are globally diversified and go and enjoy life. Consider your life like an egg timer, the key is to do the thing you enjoy before it runs out, research proves the odds are significantly against you when trying to beat the market, so why waste your precious time that’s running out!Don’t make long term investment decisions based on short term market events.

Emerging finance gives a lot of carrier options and investment options but wait increasing opportunities also increase the rumours. In the world of finance your own analysis matters instead of others, you can use others data while making an investment but you can't rely on their data data Hunder Percent.

Stay relevant. Spend a small amount of time each day looking at various sources of information. Spend a longer time each month to look at longer term trends. Take notes. Review every six months too as short term views / trends are often distorted.
