The basic ideas of investing are to look at stocks as businesses, use the market's fluctuations to your advantage, and seek a margin of safety. That's what Ben Graham taught us. A hundred years from now they will still be the cornerstones of investing.
— Warren Buffett

In this video, I show you my 5 simple steps to analyze stocks to invest in. This is how I research a company before adding it to the watchlist and eventually investing in it, simplified and easy to understand for beginners.

As a value/dividend investor, the most important aspect for me is the company's ability to produce money. For this, the free cash flow is the most important element for me, as it represents the money that the company has left at the end of the quarter/year to pay down debt, invest, pay dividends, buy back shares and so on.

The free cash flow has to be compared to other indicators, like the market capitalization, in order to see how profitable the company is and determine a margin of safety.

Then, understanding the debt is just as important, as debt is a crucial element of a business. Too much and the business can go bankrupt in bad moments, while too little can result in the business not investing enough and lagging behind the competition, both of which are not ideal.

Also important is the company's potential for growth. When analyzing a stock, it's very important to understand what factors or trends may unlock the potential growth and value - known as growth catalysts.

I also give you a few bonus tips related to analysing companies and stocks, as well as more general ones.
