What's the best job for me?

Hey guys,
been doing some thinking lately... Do I really want to go into trading?

I like doing dilligent due dilligence, speaking to other investors, contacting companies' IR, following the markets as a whole..

Is trading the best thing? If not, what else do you suggest I have a look at?

Thanks for the help!

 

manager selection. typically you would be part of a pwm/asset management firm that invests client money into a variety of mutual funds, ETFs etc.

due diligence part comes in when u are researching the funds and their investment style/returns/risk/sharpe ratio. this is actually tougher than it seems since there many funds to choose from

you also need to follow the markets to a certain extent. for example, you might have client money invested in a gold commodity ETF --> you need to keep with the gold market

btw im not entirely sure how to get into that position, its not entry level, but I would assume you would start of in a research role.
