𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐬? The simplest answer is obvious: 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐭. If we look at the list below, we can see the top 10 companies in the world that reported the most profits in 2024. 8 out of 10 are companies from the United States. But if it's so easy to find the companies with the highest profits, why don't we just invest in them and stop worrying? Because investments are about the future, not the past. Profit is a very important thing for a company (many companies in the world don't even make a profit), but it is not the only goal of the company. Usually, I follow what resources those profits are obtained with, what management team, and what future plans. I focus on companies with: ✔️ Strong cash flow generation ✔️ Stable or growing profit and operating margins ✔️ Healthy and well-managed debt ✔️ Multiple and diversified revenue streams ✔️ Vertically integrated business models ✔️ Management with clear, realistic, but ambitious goals Also, the key risks I consider before investing: ⚠️ Risk of product/service obsolescence ⚠️ Asset loss or depreciation ⚠️ Unfounded or overly risky investments ⚠️ External risks (economic, geopolitical, regulatory) ⚠️ Misallocation of capital ⚠️ Shareholder dilution ⚠️ High or unsustainable debt levels ⚠️ Excessive competition ⚠️ Lack of innovation or business development Most of these risks are visible in the metrics of the companies. That's why my portfolio includes companies that, in my opinion, have huge potential for sustainable growth. What factors do you consider before investing in a company? $SAOC (Aramco Saudi Arabian Oil Corp) $GOOG (Alphabet) $AAPL (Apple) $MSFT (Microsoft) $BRK.B (Berkshire Hathaway Inc)
