Students were guided on how to access comprehensive reports, financial statements, and historical data that are crucial for evaluating potential investments. This hands-on experience equipped them with the skills to conduct competitive analyses and assess the financial health of various companies, thereby enhancing their analytical capabilities in the field of finance.
