Investors Business Daily

Robert Hsu, March 24, 2008

Investors Business Daily: I find this daily newspaper to be an invaluable source of information for all my investments. It's pricey, but it contains excellent analysis and news. The IBD website has many free areas that are updated throughout the day.

You can find out how stocks fit into this growth matrix by doing some strategic web-surfing. Go to the company's website and visit its investor relations section. There you will typically find several years of annual reports as well as the most recent quarterly filings. Then check sites that offer comparative and competitive data, including Hoovers.com, the investment section of Yahoo! Finance, and Google's iGoogle Finance page for investors. If you're not already using these as investment tools, you'll be surprised by how detailed and extensive their information is. Plus, they make research easy, very fast, and most of the time–free.
