I am a kid in stock exchange, and i am keen to learn. When we are researching a counter, which step shall we take ?

For me, i only do this

1) Look for those familiar one

2) Look for the personality of the counter , whether it is main or 2nd board, or which sector the counter is in (will be glad if it was plantation or oil and gas)

3) Look for the yesterday price, and also today high and low

4) Look for previous month price , and key in the counter name in google and hear what others say

5) Read bursa.com about their latest announcement

6) login to the company website and see their properties, make sure it is not an empty company but with something to hold (eg , for plantation , got many lands, for industy, got many machine ..... )

Is the step i am taking correct ? I know this is just something very common when researching a counter, any more advance method like watching those ???? graph

Feel free to ask any comment, as we all are learning from mistakes .

3) not much useful, don't serve much purposes.

4) Look at long term chart with 3-5 years, not one month old.

6) The more important is look at profitability issue, you buy a company share to become a shareholder not because primary they have asset, but you want to 'enjoy' the potential profitability.
After all, investment is about using your money to earn money. One company can have tons of asset but company is not making money, then is it worth to buy?

Company can be 'empty' (not actually empty lah, just having minimal asset)' like BAT, Bjtoto Carlsberg, JTinter, but their business is highly profitability which generate healthy cashflow every year which enable them giving out generous dividend consistently which investors also like to have which sustain its share price at high level.

For starter, study the fundamental issue like company EPS, cashflow situation, balance sheet, PER etc of the company to determine their potential worth/ability to generate return to the shareholders.
