What we learned

• What is PE ratio? 

• Why does PE ratio matter? Note that we will continue emphasizing this concept. A lot of adults struggle with it despite learning it over and over again

• Light Demo on Yahoo finance. Some kids were very excited about using this tool to research stocks. We will continue demoing Yahoo Finance because our investors are ready to be more hands on!

Please note:

• PE ratio is a complex topic. Having a high level conceptual grasp of what it represents would be a huge win. Overall, the takeaway is: PE ratios tell you how expensive a stock is
