🌟🌟🌟Women investors are now in the forefront more than ever before in the stock markets. I am fortunate to learn from many great female leaders in this field in Australia.
I have read and learnt from Danielle Ecuyer's books Shareplicity and Shareplicity 2. Danielle has 3 decades of successful experience in share investing having worked in London for big financial firms.
Another well known Australian is Canna Campbell who has a huge following through her "SugarMumma" persona in Facebook which offers financial tips and advice. She also wrote "The AUD 1000 Project" and "Mindful Money".
I also like Lacey Filipich's book on Money School on how to get financial independence.
I am an admirer of Cathie Wood who puts money into disruptive innovation which is technologies that will transform business in coming years through her firm ARK Invest.
I have learnt heaps from these women and applied the principles in my investing. Knowledge is power especially with action.
