The goal is to identify the Holy Grail of stock investing … the stock … the kind of stock that, if stocks were people, then Apple, General Electric, Proctor & Gamble, and Microsoft would be peasants compared to this king. Yeah, that’s the kind of stock that would be the Grand Pooh-Bah of your portfolio! Well, hold your horses.

Seriously, it’s unlikely that you’ll find a stock with all ten hallmarks, but a stock with even half of them is a super-solid choice. Get a stock with as many hallmarks as possible and you likely have a winner

You have to check out the success rate of said company or business, because then you will know if there is a higher chance of success in what you are about to invest in.
If it is a starting business, I think a one on one with the business owner is advisable so you can examine him and get to know him to determine if your money is in good hands.

Key indicators to look out for before investing in a company are:-
Price to earnings (P/E) ratio
This measures the relationship between the earnings of a company and its stock price. It’s calculated by dividing the current price per share of a company’s stock by the company’s earnings per share.

Earnings per share (EPS)
This is the amount each share would get if a company paid out all of its profit to its shareholders. EPS is calculated by dividing the company’s total profit by the number of shares.

Price to earnings ratio to growth ratio (PEG)
This helps you understand the P/E ratio a little better. It’s calculated by dividing the P/E ratio by the company’s projected growth in earnings.

Dividend payout ratio (DPR)
This measures what a company pays out to investors in dividends compared to what the stock is earning. It’s calculated by dividing the annual dividends per share by the EPS.

One of the key things to consider in investing in a company is the originality and historical background of the company. Is the company capable of rendering the services or giving what is promised. What is the net worth of the company. These and much more needs to be considered before investing.

In any company, the first thing to consider is your earnings per share if you want to invest or purchase something. If the company pays out all of its earnings to the shareholders, this is the sum each share will receive. Then you can now consider the cost to income ratio. Secondly, the thing, is how the company is being run, whether or not they are fair, their policies go in hand with the law, do they try to employ the best people or not.
