Investment Analysis
Definition
This is the act of analyzing an investment in order to determine if it is a reasonably good investment at its current price or if it is a poor one. If it is good, then set a target price, purchase the asset and wait until it reaches that price and sell. Then repeat with other securities. If it is a bad proposition, then you can short the position to make a profit when the market falls.

Investment Analysis is a very difficult activity. It is both an art and a science. In many respects, the art aspect to the business is the hardest part by far. Sometimes, even when your science is right, the market does not act in the way you anticipate.
