Making smart investments in business, whether in be in publicly-traded or privately-held companies, remains a key growth strategy when looking to optimize financial returns. Nevertheless, not all companies and business ventures that might be invested into have the same prospects and potential for success, and as such it is extremely important that your financial research remains up-to-date and highly informed. Our intention is to provide you with a valuable resource to find that critical stock market and/or corporate due diligence information that is going to make a substantive difference in your investment decisions and your financial returns. Whether you are investing in publicly-traded stocks on a regulated stock exchange or you are investing in a smaller corporate enterprise or joint venture, you will be looking to ascertain the latest financial information from news sources and the analysis of investment advisors - both in respect of that particular company and the particular industry sector as a whole. With respect to publicly-traded companies, this tends to begin with information collected and provided on the public securities information registries that are provided online by each of the national registries, be it the Canadian Securities Administrators' System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) or the United States' Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC). From there it is important to analyze specific of the underlying business and the overall commercial environment within which it operates. This includes looking into the backgrounds of the people who are operating the corporation, as well as those who are investing into it (as well as why those who are selling, or have previously sold, have sought to depart). The key is to adequately research and properly scrutinize the good, bad and ugly related to the commercial enterprise, such that you have the confidence to move forward with your particular investment strategy, given the risk associated with making any type of investment (as any investment is subject to substantial risk, at this is the basis upon which you can make the gains that are possible with making the correct calls on your investment strategy).

The primary challenge associated with investing in a publicly-traded company via the stock market or a privately-held company is attaining timely information that is complete and accurate, and than deciphering that information such that it can be effectively applied to your investment strategy. This is a challenging undertaking as reflected in the history of all business investments (whether in the stock market or otherwise), whose major successes are accompanied by even greater failures and investment disasters, scandals and frauds. The challenge is attempting to discern the good investment from the bad investment, and making more money while limiting your losses. We are endeavouring to provide you with some of the tools to attaining that information to commence your study of viable investment opportunities, yet the information that we provide is only the start of your analysis, which needs to be supplemented by a strong approach to investment research and critical analysis.
