How efficiently the company turns shareholders' money into profit. Higher is better.
Strong — uses your capital efficiently.
Of every $100 in sales, how much becomes actual profit. Higher = more profitable business.
Highly profitable per dollar of sales.
Annual cash the company pays you, as a % of the share price. Not better or worse — just a different kind of return.
Pays you cash while you hold.
These signals are simple, sector-agnostic rules of thumb (a “good” P/E for a bank differs from a tech firm). Use them to learn what to look at — not as buy/sell calls.
