I’ve finally found a product that I can truly stand behind. TIKR is an excellent tool for the intelligent investor to discover new investing opportunities. Personally, I’ve used TIKR since early 2021. Maybe you are asking yourself: Is $15 per month ($30 with PRO) worth it? If you do, that's a good thing, a great investor should always ask if outlays of cash today will yield returns for the future. Consider this. If using TIKR and doing real fundamental analysis on the companies that you invest in can help you improve your yearly returns by even just 1%, then you need a minimum of $18k in your portfolio to justify a yearly PLUS subscription ($15 * 12 / 1%). Anything beyond a 1% improvement in returns would be profit.

However, you can narrow this massive number down into a short-list of better than average opportunities by looking at specific key ratios. Much like an expert chess player, the intelligent investor wants to filter out the mediocre or even stupid moves right from the get-go. Let me show you a strategy that has been very profitable for me since I started investing in 2013. How do you find great investment opportunities? Do you ask around among friends and family? Or maybe you should copy the investments of some YouTuber or Twitterer with lots of followers? I disagree with both approaches. Warren Buffett: "You can't buy what is popular and do well." I'll soon show you a third option. When investing in a stock market company, there are many things that you want to see. Preferably, the company should be cheap, it should be able to pay out lots of money to you as a shareholder, it should be financially stable, it should be growing, it should have experienced and dedicated management, it should have a so-called moat, which keeps competing businesses at bay, it should be in a favorable political situation, etc. Now, some of these things, you can check in just a few seconds, while others may take days or even weeks to understand, depending on your level of ambition. When I'm investing in the stock market, I look at the fast-to-check variables first and exclude companies that do not fulfill them. If you do the same, you'll save a lot of time, and you can focus your efforts on better-than-average opportunities. After all, I think that most of us want our "hourly wage" to be as high as possible. Back in the 1950s, when Warren Buffett started out on his investing journey, he plowed through elephant books such as the Moody's Manuals to find investment ideas. These books had many thousands of pages. Luckily, you and I do not have to do that anymore because we live in the digital age. Today, many investment research platforms can help in your hunt for overperformance, and the best one that I've used in recent years is one called TIKR. --- Timestamps for investing in public businesses (picking stocks): 00:00 Intro 02:41 Step 1: Valuation 06:07 Step 2: Profitability 08:03 Step 3: Growth 09:21 Step 4: Reliability 11:00 Step 5: Deep Dive --- My goal with this channel is to help you make more money and improve your personal finances.
