Fundamental analysis evaluates a company's intrinsic value using both qualitative (brand strength, management) and quantitative (financial statements) factors.
What are the two primary approaches in fundamental analysis?
Top-down analysis starts with the economy and narrows to companies, while bottom-up analysis begins with individual companies and expands outward.
What is technical analysis?
Technical analysis evaluates securities using past price and volume data to forecast future price movements.
What are the main types of price charts used in technical analysis?
Common price charts include line charts, bar charts, and candlestick charts, each offering unique insights into price movement.
What are the three primary financial statements?
The income statement (revenues, expenses, profits), balance sheet (assets, liabilities, equity), and cash flow statement (operating, investing, and financing cash flows).
Why is the cash flow statement important?
It shows how a company generates and spends cash, helping investors assess financial health and liquidity.
How is market capitalization calculated?
Market cap = Stock Price × Shares Outstanding. It represents the total value of a company's equity.
How is enterprise value different from market capitalization?
Enterprise value considers a company’s total value, including market cap, debt, and subtracting cash.
What is the purpose of financial ratios?
Financial ratios assess profitability, solvency, liquidity, efficiency, and valuation of a company.
What does the debt-to-equity ratio indicate?
It measures financial leverage, showing how much of a company’s funding comes from debt versus shareholder equity.
What is the price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio used for?
It evaluates a stock’s valuation by comparing its market price to its earnings per share (EPS).
