Financial Knowledge Test (Master)
A 10-question master (★4) quiz on P/E ratios, dividend yield, rebalancing, leverage, and currency risk.
What the Master level covers
Having built investing fundamentals at Adept, Master (★4) goes a step deeper. It checks concepts real investors use when reading stocks and portfolios — the P/E ratio, dividend yield, rebalancing, leverage, and currency risk — across 10 multiple-choice questions.
Now it's about how to read the numbers. Rather than hard formulas, it's concept-first: what each metric means and what hidden risks it carries.
The ideas real investors use
This level pairs an eye for companies with handling risk. You'll cover the P/E ratio (how many times earnings the price is), dividend yield (dividends relative to price), rebalancing (restoring your target weights), and the danger of leverage — investing with borrowed money magnifies both gains and losses.
It also covers why a foreign stock's value shifts with exchange rates, volatility (standard deviation) as a measure of how much returns swing, the efficient market hypothesis that prices already reflect information, the difference between real (inflation-adjusted) and nominal returns, and what a bear market is — a higher-level view.
Check your result and reach Legend
After 10 questions you get a score out of 10. The answer review lets you revisit the correct answer for each question, so you can sort out any concepts you were unsure about right on the spot.
If Master felt solid, the final step is Legend (★5) — the deepest ideas like the Sharpe ratio, correlation, after-tax real returns, and behavioral finance.
