How does one determine a good stock to invest in?
Post# of 6614
Well there is the chart method.
Then there is looking at volume.
One could get a blindfold and throw a dart at a list of stocks.
or
One could do some Due Diligence ( DD ) into the company under consideration. (this is for the OTC market)
So, what does one look for?
Management - their background of success and even failures.
Does the management consist of 1 owner who does it all?
If management has failed in the past, have they shown that they don't give up?
Is there growth in adding personnel as needed?
Are there consistent periodic news releases?
What is the dilution rate? How many Reverse Splits have they had /how often
& for what reason?
Does the CEO share what is going on with shareholders?
Product
Does the Company have a product that is rare? Proprietary? Patented??
Do individuals or companies have a need or desire for their product?
How strong is their competition?
Personally, I choose to look at management first; if they are credible / honest / trustworthy / competent/ admit mistakes / grow stronger...
all of these things are positive.
The management is the most important key, if they are good, having a few, most or all of the mentioned qualities; the odds are very good they will be successful.
I know of several people who have a military background & the common thing among them is they can be given a difficult task with insufficient tools to accomplish their goal and yet they give it their best shot to achieve it.
All of the top management in WRFX / Paranotek have a military background.
Mick Davis is the reason I sold 99% of my other stock and got fully on board the WRFX train.
I think of the technical support team in the same way. They don't give up.
Lauri Tunnela is the creator/inventor of the Parano protocol, so obviously he fits the same category of people who don't give up.
WRFX & subsidiaries have a group of very highly motivated & qualified individuals. Check out the DD post by Badman:
