How I Use New Constructs in my research - John Rotonti

I use it at different stages all throughout my research process. I use it in the very first minute of my research because the platform allows me to quickly scan the financials to get a good initial assessment of the strength of the balance sheet, but also the quality of the business. The first 10 or 20 minutes in my research process, I can quickly scan every ROIC metric that you would want, every free cash flow metric you could dream up, every balance sheet metric you could imagine. And all this data is going back as far as publicly available data exists. In those first few minutes, I get a sense of the strength of the balance sheet, the quality of the business, the growth of those metrics over time. I can also get a good initial sense of Valuation and your reverse DCF base case for the growth appreciation period. I get all that in a couple minutes, and that really helps me determine whether I want to go forward with my research or not.
