Want to start investing in single stocks but don't know where to start? We’ve made a simple checklist to help you spot great companies.

Listener Bailey wanted to move beyond his ETF-only portfolio and start investing in individual stocks. But like many, he wasn’t sure how to tell if a company is actually a good investment.

So we created a 4-step stock analysis checklist that anyone can use to analyse any company. It's a stock analysis tool for beginners & beyond (that you won't need a finance degree to use).

In this epsiode we cover:

Why your investing style matters when picking stocks
Our 4-step checklist to analyse any company
