PE tells you absolutley nothing! AND worse - they tout it as gospel. Even you believe them. HEPS is a bit more meaningfil, BASIC EPS (US) for asset heavy enterprises is a bit more meaningful too. Only CASH FLOW statements help with earnings; AND quite honestly - you had better understand the structure of a set of financials in order to "gleen" much from that source.

Anyway, you said "...from the financials. In other words from the price." ie. you equated the one with the other. I take it your subsequent post where you admit that they are entirely different matters is the point of reference going forward...

take any measure of performance you want to ...price, P/E, ROE,. Work out a sysytem for entry and exit . Choose 5 comapanies and when you get a signal...invest in it...you can do no better or no worse than pouring over financials or looking at the premises.I have price...when BIL hits 220, I buy. When SOL hits 320, I buy...no emotions!

What rubbish. That's trading. This is about investing. And you know it. You are just trying to cover up the nonsense you have been spewing.

You're insulting Buffet! You just said that a random pick would do as well as all of the research. Have you any idea how much work Buffet does? He actually participates in the management of many of his investments! You speak og gleaning data from financials and then you take off on this crazy tangential line .This thread is about ten baggers - so microcaps really. What on earth are you talkong about? Wow...

I lost my money watching a movie about a guy who does not understand the difference between trading and investing. He believes investing is about timing and trading is about time.

THRESH,it should take less than a minute to invest in a company...sure all the hard work is in the sysytem you create for your entry...it took Warren Buffet less than a minute to part with his money and thats the essence of investing, not all this analysis mumbo jumbo!

The only response of which that comment is worthy - is:- RUBBISH! Some of this stuff is truely inspired. "Less than a minute." Why not less than 10 seconds? In fact, as quickly as you can hit the "buy" Let's just pretend you are joking.Honestly RAMS? You are joking, right?
