coffee_rules Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Was a MF (Mutual Fund Bhai! Guy earlier. Dabbling in stocks in last couple of years, making about 15-20 % only so far. Using some very basic algorithms, watching news/ticker of stock companies almost once in couple of weeks, but want to spend more time. Pick of stocks using the fair value of stock, not for current price and mostly looking for long term investment only. Don’t want to be a day trader or short term gains. Almost doing it so can do some small talk in social gatherings. Otherwise, I was like what is EPS? Edited July 24, 2023 by coffee_rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
