LazyFA Weekly Investment Analysis Contest #1 - Fossil Group Inc. (FOSL)!

Hey everyone!

As promised here, this week I'm starting a free educational series on analyzing stocks using LazyFA!


This week we're looking at Fossil Group, Inc. (FOSL), and this ticker will be free for all, with sitewide access until 2/23/2018!


I thought FOSL was an interesting case for this week since they recently released earnings which sent the stock soaring over 70%! However, this is a troubled company that has seen declining sales for the last few years, which is obvious when you look at the share price which at one point had declined nearly 90% since 2015. Even with this most recent increase, the stock is still down over 60% from a couple of years ago.

Now the question is: is this the beginning of a turnaround story, or an opportunity to join the massive short interest that already exists in this company's stock?

The rules for the contest are super simple!


CONTEST RULES:


  1. Create a free account here

  2. Conduct your own analysis using LazyFA and whatever other tools you want

  3. Post your analysis in the comments by 8PM ET on Sunday, 2/18/18 along with your LazyFA username

  4. I'll pick the best, most thorough or most interesting analysis

  5. Winner gets a free month of access to the whole site!

  6. You can win once every 3 months.


REMEMBER:


This is fundamental analysis! We want to dig into the guts of the company, their management, their strategies, and their finances. I always consider technicals like the chart too, but for the purposes of this series I'd like to focus mostly on fundamentals.

I did a quick analysis myself to get everyone started:


Here's this week's video!


As a quick disclaimer, please remember I'm not an investment advisor. The purpose of this is just to work together to conduct a thorough analysis of a new company each week! Make sure you have done your own research before you make any investment decisions.

Alright that's it...let me know if you have any questions and have fun!
