Understanding the meaning of financial ratios, charting, understanding statistical models.
No.Compounding?
That's market pricing, not math.Bond or options pricing?
You think compounding and pricing is "fundamental analysis"?This is Fundamental Analysis.
No. I am suggesting learning the math, understanding what it means, and use the tools at your disposal to help decide whether you want to purchase shares in a company or not.To make this very brief -
You are suggesting pitting yourself against the market...
"these"? Who are people who do fundamental analysis, full time? Who are you even referring to?.these are people who do fundamental analysis, full time.
That's your assumption. I see you like to throw a lot of ill-defined words around like "intrinsic", "value" and "consensus", jumbling them up into a meaningless sentence.The assumption underlying your naive conceit is that you have an "intrinsic" value that differs from the consensus
Idiot. You mean like the price of Gamestop in 2021? Or Tesla's current price? Please tell me how either is a direct function of two variables: Earnings and (something you call) "the Market Multiple". Even you can't be that stupid - you must just be testing me here using a term like "the Market Multiple".It also ignores that price is a direct function of two variables, Earnings and the Matket Multiple.

Dumb statement - typically used by people who do not understand the US Tax code and regs. You could be a day-trader in and out of 5 companies 3x a day and that is STILL passive investing. Active investing is when you own all or part of a business and participate in that business somehow. But, I understand what you are saying and I also understand that so-called investment "professionals" misuse these terms because their Series 7, 63 and/or 65 license doesn't teach them **** about tax accounting or GAAP.Your odds are far better if you just invest passively..
Bloomberg is a good resource. I like Barron's and IBD as well. Of course, professionals have their own research sources. Barron's will do deep dives into the companies themselves. I also like to watch podcasts about deep-dives into what companies are doing. Oh, and don't forget "Barron" is the name of Trump's son, and someday future president of the United States.
