The Queen's Student Investors Group (QSIG) is a diverse and interactive club open to students of all faculties and ages. QSIG holds weekly comprehensive and in-depth discussions regarding emerging financial and technological trends; we believe that students of all backgrounds and specializations should be given the opportunity to learn about personal finance, investing, and financial markets.Every meeting, we have updates on the current economy and investment opportunities that have arisen or valuable lessons on how to actually invest and do the research necessary to find a potentially profitable investment. As well, we have a weekly trend specific to an industry or sector of the economy, in which we provide lots of background industry analyses, as well as fundamental analysis on certain corporations in those industries and sectors. Occasionally, QSIG organizes speaker events from industry professionals and Queen's professors for the chance to offer real and applicable knowledge to our members.In addition, QSIG has an investment committee consisting of seven different sectors that does very intensive and analytical research on low-risk Canadian equities for us to invest real money in. By providing ways for our members to apply the knowledge they learn at our weekly meetings, we can help students of all backgrounds understand the basic steps in creating a stock pitch and finding the true value of a public company.
