Dave:                                    00:36                     Welcome
to the podcast, this is episode 89. Tonight Andrew and I are going to do a
little more of a deep dive into the 10 K, and
that’s one of our favorite things to talk about.
I know I like to geek out about 10 ks and so does Andrew, so we’re going to
talk a little bit more about them. So Andrew, why don’t you go ahead and start
us off there. Big Guy.

Andrew:                              00:56                     Yeah,
sounds good. So 10 k, another way of saying a company’s annual report, this is
the document that every company, every public company is required to file. And
this is where you will find all of the information about accompany. We’ve
talked about some of the important ratios and some of the important metrics that
you’ll find on there, some of the important numbers. So I think today maybe we
talk a little bit more about some of the qualitative side. I’ve been reading a
lot of 10 k’s lately and have seen some similarities, some, some things that
have stuck out and you know, based on some of the previous discussions we’ve had the last couple episodes, you know, on the
last episode with Braden.

Andrew:                              01:42                     Now we’re talking about,
trying to find a qualitative factor and how that, how that helps you make a
decision on whether you want to buy a stock a talked about kind of this whole
idea of buying stocks with products that are either commodity products or a
versus maybe one where a product is priced at a premium. Maybe it’s a value add and the
differences there.

He’s basically Canada stocks expert, so I’ve had him on the show before. We had a good discussion about FANG stocks and some of the evaluations that he was seen with Canadian stocks at the time. We also had some listener questions about Canadian stocks that he was gracious enough to answer and we shared some of those on the podcast as well.

be a complete star, the guy for some of someone who’s in Canada looking to
invest in Canadian stocks, looking to invest in the Canadian market and B, for
those listeners who aren’t Canadian, we’re going to dig in maybe at the end if
we have time. Uh, I definitely want to dig into at least a couple of Braden’s
buy and sell rules when it comes to buying stocks. I think there’s some good
discussion in there and a lot of it aligns with a lot of the things that I like
to teach and the things that I think people should look for when they’re buying
stocks. So that can definitely give insight for people kind of seeing different
ways that maybe people approach stocks and how it can be similar and how it can
be different. So Braden. Thanks for coming on today.

Braden:                                01:58                     Hey

10-ks or the annual report.

Reading the 10-ks or the annual report of a company is necessary to understanding the business. It provides a great way to learn what the company does as well as some of the risks involved in investing in this company.

In addition to all the financial information, you can also glean many "soft" information from these reports such as other competitors, types of commodities they may be involved, management's thoughts on direction, and so on.

folks, we’ll work up for beginners podcast. This is episode seven tonight.
Andrew and I are going to answer a few. Yes, we got a couple of great ones and
we thought there would be really interesting to talk about and they’re kind of
relevant to what’s going on in the market as of today. So I’m going to go ahead
and read the first question and then Andrew and I will talk a little bit about
it. And then Andrew, read the second question and then we’ll talk a little bit
about it so that you go ahead and start.

Dave:                                    01:05                     So
the first question, hello Andrew and Dave, thank you for doing the podcast and
helping beginners were in the basic principles of investing and value investing.
You guys have fueled my interest to learn more and they’ve given me more
confidence when it comes to investing. I have a question for you too. I know
Andrew has mentioned a past experience with fl. Hitting is trailing stop and he
was forced to sell. He said that he underestimated how far fl would bottom out.
I’ve experienced this with a few stocks that have been affected by the current
trade war slash terrorists with China, so my question for you too is whether
you have any strategy buying stocks that you feel are on a temporary downtrend.
How long do you wait before you buy and how can you make the call when you
think the stock’s won’t get anymore? Thanks, Josh. Andrew, why don’t you go
ahead and answer that first and then I’ll throw in my two cents.

Andrew:                              01:56           &nb...

tuned in to the Investing for Beginners podcast. Finally, step by step premium

Dave:                                    00:36                     Welcome
to podcast episode tonight. We’re going to have an interesting discussion.
We’re going talk about several things tonight. So first off we’re going to talk
a little about the market and the conditions that it’s in today, and so what
we’re doing tonight is we’re recording on.
We’re going to discuss the market on December 20th, 2018. Talk a little bit
about the market conditions. Then we’re going to segue and talk about my buddy
Warren Buffet and one of probably the best speeches you’re ever going to learn
about in regards to investing. And then we have a listener question that Andrew
wanted to discuss towards the end, and then we also have a special announcement
that we’ll talk about at the end as well. So why don’t we go ahead and start off by talking about the market conditions. Andrew, why don’t you go ahead and
tell us how good or how bad things are right now.

Andrew:                              01:31                     Yeah,
it’s really bad right now. Everybody’s freaking
out and so I think it’s something we need to address and when I mean everybody,
I mean the media, obviously there’s all these reasons for why, why it is
basically, I don’t know how the rest of the year is going to end up what I’ve
seen historically in December, even if there’s been a strong area you will
generally see some selling off in December because people have this crazy idea
that you should lock in losses in order to save on taxes. I’ll get like
two to a deep into a tangent. That’s one of those stupid things that people use
as this conventional wisdom, this idea that you should take a loss to save
money on taxes, but so, so you’ll have some of this December selling off.
You’ll see as a result of that and we have had so many other factors in play,
but essentially where we closed at the end of 2017 last year with the S&P
500, we’re about 200 points under that this year as we record this December
20th.

January 02, 2019 IFB85: Finding Good Dividend Stocks By Using Better Ratios

Announcer:                        00:00                     You’re
tuned in to the Investing for Beginners podcast. Finally, step by step premium
investment guidance for beginners led by Andrew Sather and Dave Ahern to decode
industry jargon, silence crippling confusion, and help you overcome emotions by

Dave:                                    00:34                     All right folks. Welcome to the Investing for Beginners podcast. This is episode 85. So tonight Andrew and I are going to talk about dividends, our favorite subject. Andrew over the weekend had some revelations on some thoughts on dividends and some metrics and he’s got some great blog posts that are going to be coming out here shortly that we’ll talk a lot about what we’re going to talk a little touching on tonight. So some of the metrics that we’re going to talk a little bit about. We’re going to be current yield, recent dividend growth, consecutive years of dividend growth and yield on cost. And I’m going to have Andrew go ahead and start us off and he’s going to be kind of the lead guy tonight and I’ll throw in my two cents on occasion when I feel it’s relevant. So Andrew, why don’t you go ahead and take us away.

Andrew:                              01:21                     Alright,
I’ll take the wheel. So by the way, by the time this goes live, those posts will
be on the blog. So if you go on, they’re going to be a four post series and uh,
you can go in depth and really get deep into the weeds so it’s actually useful
and you can actually use it when you’re trying to look at dividend stocks. I
figure we would talk about some of the ways that people currently trying to
find good dividend then stocks. It’s a great primer for beginners and, and
there’s some good metrics that we really haven’t touched on much and any of the
episodes that we’ve recorded a and stuff you’ll see in financial websites when
you’re sifting through dividend stocks, trying to find, you know, the ones that
will really drip and do really well give you outsize returns for your
portfolio. But you know, some of these metrics also have some things missing
with them. And so that’s what all kind of get deeper into.

Andrew:                 &nbs...
