So far in this series, you’ve learned how I find and then select companies at the preliminary stage of analysis.

I then detailed why I selected only 3 of the 44 Filipino companies to put on my watch list.

I detailed each of these 3 companies.

We then recapped the entire series which is linked above.

Then we got to our first Australian company, ASXFY – these posts are linked above.

In that post, I told you why the company looked great on a preliminary basis, and not only that, but that it looks to be about fairly valued right now on a relative basis.

Which frankly was shocking to me, considering this company’s insanely high margins and cash flow production.

Oh, and because world stock markets are still at, or near all-time high valuations.

And also because of this last point, I haven’t found a new potential investment in 3.5 years.

This week, we finish looking at AXSFY’s 2018 annual report, I recap my thoughts to this point, and tell you what’s next.

ASX Ltd (ASXFY)

Let’s continue finding out…

In the 8-minute video above, we talked about ASXFY’s 2018 annual report and what I do differently when looking at companies’ subsequent financial reports.

• Why I typically take far fewer notes
• What specific things I look for in the first third or first half of a second financial report
• Why I look for these things
• Why you can go through these financials faster
• I recap my thoughts on ASXFY up to this point
• I tell you what the next steps are in this process
• And more…

If you’re following along, here are my financial notes on ASXFY up to this point in the 2018 annual report.

If you have any questions or comments about anything in the video above, or this ongoing series, let me know.

I’m going to teach as much as possible in this series and in these videos, so the more questions and comments you have, the more you’ll learn. So please put any comments and questions in the comments section below this post.

Seriously, and I say this to all my coaching and training clients: even if it’s a minor question, you think may be stupid, ask it.

If you’re investing real-world money, a ‘stupid question’ can cost you real money and frustration, so don’t hesitate to ask.

And remember…

Now that we’ve found a company that looks like a potentially great investment now, if you want to see the future videos about this company and learn about us potentially investing in it, first you need to sign up to the Training Vault.

We’ll be adding these videos to this service first, sometimes weeks in advance, of the blog and other social media platforms.

To mark this occasion, we’ve also dropped the cost of the Training Vault to as little as $19 a month, for life, or up to 81% off its normal price.

I’ve also added more bonuses like free access to $1,500 worth of courses, free training sessions, and more, to help you get into this great program.

Now that we’ve found a potential investment, we’re going to research further, this offer will only last for a limited time so make sure to take advantage before it’s gone.

Go here to get the Training Vault now.
