Hi @athma_prathisti,

thank you for your suggestion. may I request you to please elaborate a little more in your suggestion? What do you have in mind?

When starting my investment journey, what it is a good first step?

How should I know if the company is a good investment or not?

Hi @Uma_17897934,

We do not encourage sharing any tips. But would just like to say one thing - sharing your ideas wont take away your edge or reduce your profits. From investment stratergies to cooking recipies its all out there on the internet for people to see. But in investment, it takes some human intuition and strategies to succeed. So, please dont worry about it!

Finally, this is a community, the more we share, the more we can all learn and grow together

Can we join this live event or it’s a paid program?

Hey, @patel_42005382

Thank you for the question. Here are a few things I look at. A long and sustainable earnings grwoth track record (15% + pa); good ROE profile (again 15-18% sustainably generated) and most importantly if the company has a strong moat (pricing advantage, good network). these are something I look at.

If you are staring out, would suggest choose companies with lower debt…its just safer…and finally look for decent valuations.

Hey @HASSAN_35375793

So the first step I look for is – how well do I understand the sector. For most of us, sectors like retail, autos are intuitively easier to understand. Pick something that you understand better than other sectors and then deep dive into it…

Start with something you are comfortable with

When comparing companies in the same sector, which 2-3 financial metrics are most important?
