BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!! That is what’s happening in the stock market here in the Philippines right now. And as more people become more fascinated with the stock market, the Junior Management Society invited Accord Capital to conduct a seminar, entitled “PISO Jumpstart.”

The seminar was held on the 10^th of September 2013 at the 7^th floor, CKS College Narra campus. The speakers were Mr. Joseph Tarrobal and Mr. Ryan Panis. Mr. Joseph Tarrobal is a seasoned sales and marketing strategist and tactician. He is the champion of empowerment and high value strategy execution. An accomplished trainer and speaker on leadership and personality development, Mr. Tarrobal is also the head of Philstock.ph. Mr. Ryan Panis, on the other hand, is a well-versed expert on the intricacies of market education regarding the Philippine stock market. His full time job is being a marketing events and training associate, and he is also a barangay councilor of San Roque in Pateros. He is the president of the Pateros Chapter of Junior Chamber International.

More than 90 students attended the seminar. The speakers discussed that stocks represent ownership of a company’s assets and profits. Being a stockholder makes you a part owner of a particular company. More stocks means more ownership in the company. Choosing the right company in can lead to tremendous success for any investor.
