Assignment help - Researching A Stock

Read the 10-K first and then try to get your hands on some analyst reports if possible. I think even Yahoo! Finance, Morningstar, Reuters, etc. give growth estimates though.

Ok, thanks for that. Grabbed the 10-K and it seems to have some useful info.

With regard to analyst reports (which is essentially what this assignment is asking me to produce), whats the best way to get these at as little cost as possible? I have the ValuEngine one which seems OK, but not great, which is what I expected given that I got it for free.

Which ones are better than others? I'm willing to spend a little money, but not for something thats crap.

See if your library has subscriptions to InvestText or Reuters Knowledge. Just go to your library's hompeage and search business resources. They might have a resource that can pull up at least a few analyst reports.

You could also see if any of your friends/parents have accounts with large brokerage firms. If they trade their own account they should have access to that firm's research reports.

If your school has a subscription (doubt it, but possible) to Thomson One Analytics, that could do the trick as well.

Similarly if your school subscribes to one of the EBSCOHost, you may look for a report by DataMonitor. They do have some SWOT analyses there..

Some (very few...) university investment/finance clubs have access to Bloomberg, through which you can sometimes find analyst reports as attachements with the CN function for free.

Sometimes in Morningstar they go in depth, for free, on the qualitative and quantitative aspects of a company. Usually, the 10K is where most of your info will be. Although you might find it a bit tedious to go through and somewhat dry, it has what you need.

Ok, thanks guys, will look into what my library has access to.
