r/Stocks Daily Discussion & Fundamentals Friday Feb 18, 2022


This is the daily discussion, so anything stocks related is fine, but the theme for today is on fundamentals, but if fundamentals aren't your thing then just ignore the theme and/or post your arguments against fundamentals here and not in the current post.

Some helpful day to day links, including news:


Most fundamentals are updated every 3 months due to the fact that corporations release earnings reports every quarter, so traders are always speculating at what those earnings will say, and investors may change the size of their holdings based on those reports. Expect a lot of volatility around earnings, but it usually doesn't matter if you're holding long term, but keep in mind the importance of earnings reports because a trend of declining earnings or a decline in some other fundamental will drive the stock down over the long term as well.

See the following word cloud and click through for the wiki:

Market Cap – Shares Outstanding – Volume – Dividend – EPS – P/E Ratio – EPS Q/Q – PEG – Sales Q/Q – Return on Assets (ROA) – Return on Equity (ROE) – BETA – SMA – quarterly earnings

If you have a basic question, for example “what is EBITDA,” then google “investopedia EBITDA” and click the Investopedia article on it; do this for everything until you have a more in depth question or just want to share what you learned.
