I was joined in this episode by Chris Batchelor from Stockopedia to discuss Free Cash Flow - what does it mean and why is it important?
Free Cash Flow is the amount of money that a business generates after paying for its operating expenses and investing in its growth.
It is the cash that is left over for the owners or shareholders of the business to use as they wish. They can use it to pay off debt, save for future projects, or distribute as dividends.
Pros:
- Extensive pre-built screens and customizable screening tools.
- A wealth of educational resources for investors, including guides, learning materials, and ad-hoc posts.
- A comprehensive alerts system to keep investors informed.
- A global reach catering to investors in various regions.
- The Stock Rank system simplifies stock selection for beginners.
- Discretionary portfolio construction for more experienced investors.
- Access to a knowledgeable investment research team.
- Strong customer support with teams both locally and globally.
Cons:
- Extra costs may apply for access in some regions.
- DIY share investing can be complex, requires serious learning and vigilance, and may lead to loss of capital.
Broadcasting live from his humble garage next to his trusty Toyota Corolla (and a clothes rack), Elio D'Amato from Stockopedia joined me to discuss share investing and the factors that identify quality companies:
These factors of quality, value and momentum, are the work of the giants of our industry. We rank the world's stocks according to the factors that have been identified. So an investor can easily search for these factors. And then we blend the factors of quality, value and momentum into what we call stock rank score, which is in essence trying to find good cheap, strong stocks, which sounds like a pretty robust strategy over time. And we've shown that it provides a smoother performance relative to the market over time.
