Description
Using the BetterInvesting Stock Selection Guide (SSG), learn how to read the graph’s “Golf Balls” and “Bubbles.” Understand the importance of the most recent four quarters. Learn how to identify if they are “out of trend.” See why a bowing graph is deadly.
Learn the power of the “Torpedo Graph,” as it shows the Pre-Tax Profit (PTP) trend. “Trend is our friend!” When the PTP declines, the EPS declines, and the Price declines!!
When PTP declines, see how share buy-back will increase the EPS and Price. Share buy-back may be camouflaging declining profits.
Learn the value of “Compare Peers.” Dive deeper into management by contrasting the most recent year to benchmarks. Learn how to read price volatility with the loooooong price bars and Beta!Instructor: Kathleen Richards
