Accompany you to make money in the US stock market!

Hello, everyone, I am the representative of Niuniu class!

Today is a series of courses "20 lectures on American Stock Investment".

Lecture 5"how to get information about the US stock market"

Niu friends, please pick up the small bench and come to class together.

To make an investment and get correct and valuable information at the first time should be on the mind of every investor.

Because when there is a good opportunity or when the investment company is unfavorable, you can get the information more quickly, thus you are one step ahead. If investors accept relevant information for a long time, they can enhance their deep understanding of an enterprise or industry.

In addition, when you know more information faster than others, you can enjoy the dividend of information asymmetry.

Therefore, the purpose of this article is to help investors solve the "information" problem, sort out a number of ways to obtain information, and help you make investment decisions.

First, what are the types of this information?

The information that will affect the value of listed companies can generally be divided into two categories.

The first category is related to the company itself.Micro information。

For example, the merger and acquisition of an enterprise, the disclosure of financial reports, the change of the company's main business, the information of shareholders, the financing and borrowing of the company, and so on.

The second category isMacroscopic information。

Although it is not directly related to the company, the overall behavior of the market and industry will also have a significant impact on the company. For example, economic policies, industry-related policies and so on.

Second, how to search for this information?

So how do you get information about these companies? The US stock market has a very complete information disclosure system, if you want to obtain relevant information, there are three main ways.

In fact, these three approaches can be divided into official level, corporate level and financial media.

(1) through the official website of the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States

The official level is mainly through the official website of the Securities and Futures Commission, namely SEC. The information obtained through this way is the most complete and authoritative. But you need to take the time to screen, after all, there is a lot of information.

SEC has a system called EDGAR, which contains reports in the form of electronic data submitted by listed companies. ClickEDGARYou can enter.

When you enter, you will see the following interface:

In the search bar, you can enter the company code, for example, if you want to search for BABA, you can enter alibaba, and then you will jump to the relevant interface to get BABA-related information.

In addition, you can also learn fromSecurities and Futures Commission (SEC)The main interface to enter the system, where the arrow below, enter the code, you can also enter.

Or you can find the results from the top of the official website.

EDGAR displays search results in chronological order. Different files represent different types. You can clickForm typeEnter the query.

(2) through the official website of the listed company

If you get it at the company level, it is the most accurate for you to get the information, but the information only contains the company you query, the content is very limited, but for the company you query, the information is very complete.

To check which company's statements and related information, find the official website, there is generally an investor relations (Investor Relationship) section on the official website, in which you can query the company's financial and information reports and other related information.

We still take BABA as an example, we need to inquire about the information of the company. Go to the company's website, find the section on investor relations, and click to find the information you need.

If it is an American company, such as Apple Inc, the interface of the official website is all English, then it is basically like this.

You can also find relevant links at the bottom of the official website, click in, and you will have what you need!

(III) through the information provider

Through the formal financial media, you can get most of the important and unexpected information in the market, but the information may be omitted and is not complete.

For example, in Yahoo! Finance,Google Finance,MarketWatch, Reuters and other media can query the financial reports or major information reports of various companies listed in the United States.

Of course, the most important thing is that we can also find relevant information and information on our Futuo Niuniu!

For example, in the [market] section, you can directly see the latest quotes, ups and downs, market capitalization, announcements, financial reports, information, cattle comments and other information, as shown in the following figure:

In the [information] section, Niu Youyou can get the latest and hottest news of the company and industry, as well as the depth and professional analysis of these news. In other wordsIt not only helps you get "fast" news, but also provides "deep" interpretation!

According to some Niu friends, we only know the "important news" section. In fact, we also have news bulletins, calendars, special topics, Hong Kong stocks, US stocks, changes and other channels (as shown in the following figure).

For example, you only want to see self-selected stocks.$BABA (BABA.US) $、$Apple Inc (AAPL.US) $、$Alphabet Inc-CL C (GOOG.US) $Then you can click "optional" to get all the information in one step!

For example, in the Bull Circle section, you can have a fierce interaction with other cattle friends and Futu's content, products, R & D brothers and sisters, learn about hot information and put forward your own suggestions and ideas. you can also learn a little knowledge of investment and financial management in class!

Hee hee!
