modus operandi

Which companies do we invest in? This time we have to be careful. Not to invest in companies which we have not understood well. Understand well with proper reasoning - at least the reasoning that we all can give together.

So which companies? Let us choose the 50 companies in Nifty then let us study each of those companies and see which of these companies are worthy of our investment.

We will study each of these companies in various perspectives - Past growth % for 4 years; Future growth opportunities; PE ratio; etc (etc because I cant remember of any now but I am sure something will come up in future ;) ).
