Fundamental Analysis
The goal of fundamental analysis is to determine whether a company’s future value is accurately reflected in its current stock price.
Fundamental analysis attempts to estimate the value of a particular company's stock based on a variety of factors, such as the current finances of the company and the prevailing economic environment. Fundamental analysis also may include assessing how a company’s products are received in the marketplace.
Technical Analysis
Technical analysis evaluates recent trading movements and trends to attempt to determine what’s next for a company’s stock price. Technical analysis involves analyzing stock charts and trends to make an assessment of a company’s stock price and direction.
