Nobody investing seriously puts their savings into a single stock and calls it a strategy. Investment funds exist for exactly that reason — they pool the savings of people who want to invest in securities into one vehicle, then direct that pool into buying and selling as a managed whole. Legally, this is recognised dealing in the money market, governed by the rules of whichever exchange it operates in, and it's never limited to one company's shares or one type of security. Knowing how that pool actually gets built and managed — not just that it exists — is the first-level skill this course is built around.
