And yet almost all research analysts aspire to become fund managers someday. I am actually weighing my options as to if i should take up equity research as a career or do something more worthwhile and invest my money on my own terms.
Take your chances and keep them in a box until a quieter time.

sucsess in life comes from keeping life simple and not complicating things
understanding both the power of compound return and the difficulty getting it is the heart and soul of understanding a lot of things

Hi,
Are there any equity research analysts here on TED who work for some MF? I am really interested to know what a day at work is like for these guys.
Also a few other questions:
1)How much freedom does one get to go about and cover a company one fancies?
2)Whats the money in the industry like?
3)How they cope with quarterly performance pressures?
4)What does it take to succeed in the industry where almost all MFs are closet indexers?
Would appreciate responses.
Thanks
Hi Teddies,
I am starting discussion on this forum again, as i would also like to know the answers to the questions asked by prabhakar earlier. I have some more questions to add to it:
1. What are the prospects of getting a job on the basis of CFA level 1, without any other background in Finance?
2. How much can a fresher expect in terms of salary?
hope that my questions will be answered soon, as always on TED
