Over the last few weeks, I have been looking at shares from a new perspective and have started to take a closer look at balance sheets and fundamental data. 🤯
Unfortunately, I still don't use a screener and have therefore only looked at the stocks that I am familiar with in some form.
In view of the tradable shares on the global market, this is certainly a big mistake and I have some catching up to do. Nevertheless, I would like to share some of my findings with you.
I have created two lists for this purpose.
On the lists you will find stocks that in my opinion have excellent fundamental quality characteristics.
The first list contains the absolute quality companies, some of which have already proven themselves over many years, and the second list contains companies that could still become such or have not yet proven themselves long enough and could therefore be a good long-term investment. The lists are neither correct nor complete and, depending on your point of view, some stocks belong on one list or the other, or perhaps not on any list at all.
