First I could go to finance and key in the symbol. That will display the basic financial data for the company. Next I could go to Edgar and read the 10k filings for the company and I could access the S&amp,P stock report for the company from my brokers website. I could do a internet search to see if the company has a website and I could then visit the website to see what the company has to say about itself. That may be infomative. I could then go to one of the technical data web sites and research the stock action of the company to find out if its is under buildup or distribution.

I could then make my choice depending on that info and the general portfolio makeup of my investments.

A couple of places I could start with: finance to get financial information. Then I could go to top10traders.com/StockInfo.as. here is can learn what other investors are purchasing your stock, also there are news stories for the stock, and dividend info also.

/ finance is as good a place as any.. enter your symbol in the box marked quote and some information comes up for you..but on the left there are other parts of investigating the stock.try them til you get used to seeing certain types of information on different stocks.
Also attempt moneycentral.msn.com/investor/hom.
Try the stock scouter on that site ..good info
