Hi brian. Thank you for these beneficial vids. Im an engineer myself who has passion for smart investing I finished a few books & started in 2020. Still holding 25 wonderful companies & 3 ETFs My account performance is nearly 40%. However i like to widen my circle of competence into financial sector. Banks & insurance. Their fundamental analysis differs from normal sectors. Please make a vid on spotting red flags 🚩 for these companies. Also does your book cover these companies?

[@diegopardo1339]

Great video! I only disagree with the dilution, if the company diluted you 50% but its net income grew 200% in an organic basis, maybe they only need capital in capex because they see opportunities to grow

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

Sure… there are exceptions

Thank you Brian.

Welcome!

[@mattshaffer4765]

This is all true but you can really miss out on some big opportunities by taking the time to look into why these red flags are occuring. For example: Chipotle when revenue dropped from 2015-2016 out of an ecoli fear. More recently, Target in the low 100's when everyone was so fearful about their margins being unable to turn around due to a temporary over inventory/shrink problem.

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

Sure…still important to know how to analyze an income statement

I saw one of your video and you were saying that negative retained earnings was bad. SBUX and DPZ have negative retained earnings. How bad and how important is that metric for us shareholders? Thank you

[@kelvinchanguy1736]

LOW also has been in negative territory in the last few years...

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

Yeah… this is why there’s so much nuance with accounting. It depends on WHY there are negative retained earnings. If it’s because the business struggles to make a profit, that’s a bad sign. If it’s because the company has bought back tremendous amounts of stock for years, thats a good sign. For Starbucks, Domino’s, and Lowe’s, retained earnings is negative for a good reason. But as a generic statement, it’s not a good sign if you see negative retained earnings.

[@kelvinchanguy1736]

@@BrianFeroldiYT Thank you for your reply. So buying back shares is lowering retained earnings figures? Is it because they are doing it while having lots of debt? Can you please explain it with SBUX? I sold it when I saw negative earnings but I still like the business model and MOAT Thank you for your help
