Financial Analysis

These thoughts are centered on financial analysis and the creation of value for a commercial or industrial enterprise. Financial analysis is a method of analyzing the financial health of a company based on accounting documents, schedules, forecasts and intangibles such as a factory visit or experience managers. The objective of financial analysis is to answer two questions that may vary depending on where we place ourselves.

Shareholders: Does the company within the scope of my investment strategy?

Creditors: If I lend money, will I get it?

Attention, everyone can be an investor or creditor! Buy shares makes you a shareholder, subscribe to bonds makes you creditor. However, you have to analyze the company whoever you may be! I strongly emphasize this point, since the financial environment changes over time, the safe products become risky and that deserve analysis. Even in times of euphoria, a financial analysis is essential because even the best company’s of euphoria can fail. From my point of view, what I could see between schools, banks, investors and entrepreneurs, financial analysis is often incomplete. It is not enough to look at whether a company has been profitable for the last 3 years by adding liquidity ratios, management, structure, or even credit for a complete analysis.

 When a company makes a profit, we must always ask ourselves whether these profits can be converted into cash. It is only with cash that a company can repay its debt or pay its shareholders. Analysis of cash flow or cash flow-often forgotten-is an essential step in any financial analysis. A company may have an increase in its constant activity, an important benefit but have a severe shortage of cash. Most of the Americans investors know this and have invented one worship saying: Cash is king. While many start ups rely on equity funds that imply they lack the cash to finance their activity despite growth rates maddening.

Good and Bad credit!

Normally, if you are in debt, you are not rich. This is the fact. The intention here is precisely to have no debt and enough money aside to buy what you want. In looking more closely, there are basically two types of debt, good debt and bad, as there are good and bad cholesterol, good and bad stress etc. A bad debt is a loan you take out for something that does not earn you money: a loan for your car, your home, your plasma screen etc. Because these assets do not generate money and you need to repay your credit from your pocket.

Most of the Rich people who are well aware of credit traps pay cash for these things instead of getting a bad debt. A good debt, you'll understand a credit contracted for a asset that generate income for your investment. For example, if you pay the monthly installments on your house rented and you are receiving the rent paid by your tenant, or the loan you take out to start a company will be repaid from profits. You do not take money out of your pocket to pay for a good debt. However, there are exceptions in the case of bad debt.

 When the rate of your credit is less than the rate of inflation, for example in the case of a zero-interest loan, it is better to credit. This is also the case when you put the money you were going to spend on your purchase that brings you more than the cost of credit that you will incur to complete this purchase. Now a day mortgage rates are low, you can benefited through that also.

Increase Your Income By Investing A Little Time

The increase in income may go through several things: financial investments, overtime, promotion, etc. But you can also easily increase your income by investing a few hours a week and a bit of money upfront. The theory is simple: in addition to your work, you can invest a little of your time (approximately equivalent to 10% of the hours spent at work) to generate alternative income. Working for yourself is much nicer than having to work for others, and much more satisfying when you reap the benefits. Large cash flow is a little hard to get at first, but it may end up paying. The trick is to know, what to do to get more money. The most important choice is to take an activity that does not require too much time (not to exceed 5-10 hours per week).

If the chosen activity is done, it can increase your additional income to several thousand Euros per year very quickly. Personally, I strongly advise against trying to make money with online surveys or websites that offer reward systems, etc. You rarely touch the money in cash, sometimes rewards, and often the site in question may prove to be a scam which does not pay. We must not go after this type of site as Source (s) of alternative income. It is better to turn to other types of activities: gardening (many economies) blogging (paying little at first, but generates hundreds each month after 1 or 2 years of operation, and constantly rising), freelancing (choose something you can do and offer it as a service), etc.. Finally, it pays a lot more money doing something you like. It is not because you work better, but because you are more motivated to work.

 I suggest you diversify your income with an activity related to your interests. Still, the lesson to be learned from this post is that it is not always enough to put money aside for retirement, sometimes we also know that money to work to your advantage. I also advise you to continue to set aside money for your retirement, but also increase your income by investing a little time and (very) little money. Your goals for retirement accumulated capital will be achieved much faster. Do you already have diversified sources of income of your own?

The New York Stock Exchange Current Trend

While some experts feared the downward effect of New York Stock Exchange might have lead to short-term maturity of U.S. budgetary and fiscal measures, the New York Stock Exchange seems - for now - to ignore such considerations. Better yet, the Dow Jones, its flagship index posted its fifth consecutive day in a record close, rising 0.35%, or 50.22 points, to 14 447.29 points, the Nasdaq gaining for its part 0.26%, or 8.50 points to 3252.87 points, which is something that had not seen since November 7, 2000. The broader index of Standard & Poor's 500 meanwhile rose 0.32%, or 5.04 points to 1556.22 points, grazing near its highest closing level (1565.15 points) taken October 9 2007. Reasons for this surge: the Friday announcement of a lower U.S. jobless rate to 7.7% in February. A new boom is even possible if you believe some analysts saying the recent passing of a new record for the S & P 500 would be a very positive psychological effect on brokers and investors, this index is considered by many them as the benchmark. Currently, the markets do not seem to expect a decline in the short term, although some experts are already predicting that such high levels cannot be maintained for very long. In the end, the good performance of the stock market will give some surprise, especially such a flight can be maintain until any changes in the global atmosphere. In contrast, industrial production in China had its slowest pace since 2009 in the period January-February. In Europe, the political crisis in Italy is rather seen negatively by investors, who fear that a coalition government is formed not long before. Context compounded by the demotion of a notch on the rating of the country made Friday by Fitch. The U.S. budget deadline of March 27 is fast approaching, which could be synonymous with closure of non-essential services administration and fiscal cliff. Elected officials do in fact have a few days to complete a law funding covering the last six months of the current fiscal year. Recall that on March 1, came into force automatic cuts in spending from the federal government 85 billion over the next seven months.
