The past three blog-posts were about the business research services of Market Quotient (MQ). The next category of services that MQ specializes in is the “investment research” services. This post and the consecutive three posts shall be about the various aspects of investment research. Considering the wide spread confusion about what the terms “investment” and “investment research” actually mean, let us start with an explanation of the same.
Financially conscious people all over the globe use the word “investment” in the sense of spending the financial resources one owns in activities that generate returns in the long run. However, Wikipedia points out that the term has two kinds of perspectives. One from the point of view of Economics, and the other from the point of view of Finance. Wikipedia elucidates, “In economics, investment is the accumulation of newly produced physical entities, such as factories, machinery, houses, and goods inventories. In finance, investment is putting money into an asset with the expectation capital appreciation, dividends and/or interest earnings.”
In this post, we shall mostly make use of the financial interpretation of the word. Having said that, it can be clearly derived that the term “investor” refers to a person or a group of persons who are engaged in investment. An investor’s task is often a very difficult one. He must minutely study the pros and cons of an asset he wants to acquire and also the universal global market conditions persisting at the time of investment. He needs to have a clear foresight with respect to the return-generating capacity of the asset in the future, which implies that he must also have an ability to predict future market scopes and conditions. In fact, while making an investment decision, an investor must consider several other factors as well.
Now, investment research refers to the detailed study of market conditions, business atmospheres, financial profiles of the respective clients and making investment recommendations based on this study. Thus, investment research provides a specialized help to the wannabe investors as well as the proficient investors, making their decision-making process a thousand times simpler. Since it affects the mindsets of the investors in this competitive world so severly, the depth and reliability of an investment research work is a very important issue.
