1. Stock Story & Management Q&A

When you look up a stock, ever wondered why everyone presents you a set of numbers? The numbers may or may not make sense to you depending on how savvy you are as an investor, but they sure don’t tell you what’s the underlying business behind that stock.

We like to believe, you will make a very good start by reading up first, on what we call stock stories. Going through the Management Q&A that we painstakingly put together may provide you with further insights.

2. Stock Analysis

It is worthwhile spending some time studying the track record of the business. How has it grown over the last 5 years or more, what are the sources of its growth? What kind of profitability and financial health record does it have to show? What has been the quality of this growth, Is it becoming more efficient, or less?

Before you can bet on a stock, you need to be more informed on its track record. Stock Analysis is a good second step.

3. Stock Research

Seasoned Investors are not satisfied yet (walking through steps 1-4). They know that to bet with any conviction on a stock investment, they need to be sure of the sustainability of the business. Can it continue to perform well in the next 3-5 years? Why?

An objective assessment of the business issues particular to the industry segment, sustainable competitive advantages that it may enjoy, management quality, significant new initiatives, etc. are among the aspects that are necessary to establish before you allocate your (scarce) capital.

ValuePickr Business Quality and Management Quality Frameworks are geared to help seasoned and new investors establish that confidence in the business, before they invest in it.
