I find I often look at the subject line analyst reports but I find they
are not always in agreement. Is there one you guys find more reliable
than the others? Has anyone really determined if there is a basic
difference in method?


Thanks

I'm going to tell you how to make money in stocks you never considered.

Go to the library and open up the latest S&P Stock Guide. Look for stocks
that are rated A- or better. Then go across the page and look at the
capitalization. Look at the company's cash position, assets, liabilities,
long term debt and annual earnings per share. Then use the following flow
chart:

Are assets > long term debt?

No: go on to the next company

Yes:
Is cash > long term debt X .75 ?

No: go on to the next company

Yes:
Do you see a progression of increasing earnings per share (it's OK if
earnings went down just one year over the past five years)?

No: Go on to the next company

Yes:
Is the company in an industry you understand?

No: Do further research to see if you can understand the industry

Yes:
Consider buying

If cash > long term debt, definitely buy.

Is this the huge Benjamin and Graham book summarized in 1/2 dozen steps?

You don't know what you're talking about.

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Therefore the answer to your question is ALWAYS YES and can NEVER be
NO.

You're full of it and an incompent lier.

Please, your highness, prove to us all how Assets < L/t debt.

I doubt if Ben cared what S&P's ratings were. It's a method that is a
combination of the Geraldine Weiss method of looking at A- or better
companies while looking at their dividends and stuff I learned from getting
my PhD from the University of Hardknox.

That reminds me... look at the dividend progression and see if the dividends
have been increased at least once during the last five years. That data
would be found in an S&P stock report, not in the Stock Guide.
