The simple 5-point check that prevents 90 % of all beginner mistakes - without analysing the balance sheet, without technical jargon
Many newcomers believe they have to:
- Read balance sheets
- Know dozens of key figures
- Study annual reports
That is not true. For a first, rough estimate a clear, structured 5-point check is enough to show you:
- What does the company do?
- How does it earn money?
- How stable is it?
- How expensive is the share?
- What are the risks?
This Deep Dive delivers exactly that - simple, clear, robust.
1. 🏢 Understanding the business model
The most important question of all:
How does the company earn money?
If you can't explain this in 1-2 sentences, the share is too complex.
Good examples:
- „Earn money with software subscriptions.“
- „Sells consumer goods worldwide.“
- „Betreibt ein Netzwerk, das Gebühren kassiert.“
Bad examples:
- „Something with blockchain, AI, cloud, platform, ecosystem...“
- „I think they're doing something with data.“
👉 If you don't understand the business model, you're investing blindly.
2. 💰 Profitability (very roughly)
