Some things I really like about the business (going off the information above): - Aggressive stock buy backs - High shareholder yield - Effective management numbers (ROA & ROE) - Great financial health - Displaying a high upside, compared to today’s trading price Somethings I done like: - Weak gross profit margins - The analysts rating for the coming period So far this is greatly shifting towards a positive view on the business, hence why we will look into the business after we’ve looked at 6 more businesses within the sector. After this the order of research will become apparent, so far I like this business the best though. ⏳ Find copy trading an interesting tool to diversify or lighten your work load?
