The Workday Cafe: Recent Episodes
Daniel Pageau
The S&P 500 Index is regarded as a benchmark in the stock market, but does it truly represent the economy as a whole? Welcome to The Workday Café. Over the next year, I am challenging myself to evaluate every company on the S&P 500 Index and share my findings each week through this podcast. If you’re curious about what goes on behind the scenes of the 500 largest companies in the world, join me on this journey into the stock market.
In addition to the S&P 500 project, I am undertaking a more informative show to help young Canadians gain financial literacy that premieres on 92.7 FM Trent Radio Peterborough. In this episode, I have put together some of the best clips, stories, and most important messages that have happened in the series.
