Applying sound judgment on the SSG is the real key to making good investment decisions. This class will look at the basic historical information that is important to consider, then go deeper into judgment making process, talking about the future of the company. The class will explore where to find information about the future that influences our judgment.  After finding the information, we will apply where and how to make those key judgments.  This class provides guidance and insight into how to make the important estimates looking 5 years into the future.

•         Sustainable growth and finding trends in the Trend Analysis graph
