thezster said: "I keep CNN on one television in my home office - (breaking news often creates opportunities). The other is tuned to any number of news stations (depends on my mood of the day) - or on occasion the wiggles/doodlebops - as my 2 year old sometimes wants to "help daddy trade". :D :mad:"

SomeBum said: "[QUOTE=danny021]Just wondering where all you people do your research on stocks/companies? which websites etc..[/QUOTE] Yahoo! Finance is a good one. MoneyCentral by MSN is really good too. GlobeInvestor.ca - For Canadian stocks, I think Bell owns it."

You can drill down to specific industries and see how companies compare to each other (and industry averages) based on P/E, ROE, Profit Margin, D/E, Dividend, Price to FCF, Price to Book, etc. You can also sort the list of companies by each of these measures.
