Coursera — Financial Markets (Yale)

Nobel laureate Robert Shiller teaching you how financial markets work, for free. This Yale course covers stocks, bonds, insurance, banking, derivatives, and behavioral finance in 7 modules with Shiller's characteristic blend of academic rigor and real-world storytelling. Over 3 million enrollments. Shiller predicted both the dot-com bubble and the 2008 housing crisis, making his lectures on market irrationality particularly credible. The course content can be audited entirely for free on Coursera (the certificate costs $49). If you're going to learn investing, learn from the professor who literally wrote "Irrational Exuberance."
