Fundamental Analysis :
Fundamental analysis of a business involves analyzing its income statement, financial statements and health, its management and competitive advantages, and its competitors and markets.
The analysis is performed on historical and present data, but with the goal to make financial projections. There are several possible objectives:
- to conduct a company stock valuation and predict its probable price evolution,
- to make projection on its business performance,
- to evaluate its management and make internal business decisions,
- to calculate its credit risk.
