Fundamental Analysis
This investment strategy involves evaluating a stock by examining the company, especially its operations and its financial condition. Here we look at several valuation methods, factoring in price/earnings ratio, PEG, dividend yields, book value, price/sales ratio, and return on equity.

Which companies should I invest in? Learn how to find a company, gather the research, and do the analysis. Also gives suggestions of things to look for while conducting this process.
