Hey guys, I wanna go more in-depth on certain sectors and product groups. I am curious to see how you develop specific knowledge/understanding of trends. And of course how do you keep yourself updated on relevant news.
What i usually do is listen to FT news briefing , read several articles from FT and follow some PE/Tech/General newsletters.
What would you recommend me in order to improve?

Initiating coverage reports
Agreed ^
Write your own analysis based on reliable data you can find. You’ll be impressed how much you learn when your signature is behind the work.
Tip: Being really good and deep at 1-2 industries will trump machine gunning several industries superficially. Make a choice, and dive hard brother.
Important to note , I do not yet work in IB. Tho the advice is still applicable and I will employ it. Thanks a lot!
How would you recommend going about finding information to write these reports? I have not hit the desk yet but would like to hone in on my skills.
