You see some generic tech stock for the first time.

Without looking at the chart and doing technical analysis, how would you determine if the company is profitable? How do you find out if the sales for their devices are good?

How fucking stupid are you?
You look at quarterly and annual reports. These typically include a income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement. These also include a risk factor discussion that may affect the value of the company. This is what finance degrees are intended for.

well....
Their website, sec filings and quick google search would probably be a good start

thanks. But, even these dont do much for me except confirm hindsight. Its clear when a stock price goes down, obviously the company's revenue and debt are worse.

And even if im missing something, it would probably take hours to read all of it and find something significant

Guess all i can do is look at news about contract deals and what not.
