In the world of dividend growth investing, it's of critical importance to properly analyze stocks. Today's video is the third in my series of dividend stock analysis, and I dive deep into the art and science of analyzing balance sheets. Comprised of assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity, the balance sheet is a financial snapshot, a representation of how good a company is at managing its finances. A technical video, this is the type of stock analysis that separates good investors from great ones. Learn how I personally build my dividend portfolio, through in-depth stock analysis.
Today's video utilizes Kimberly-Clark (KMB) as an example, a personal holding of mine. KMB is a stock I have owned for a while, and continue to average into. Learn about balance sheets via real world examples.
Today's video covers:
* What is a balance sheet? What is a balance sheet comprised of?
* Assets and the importance of current assets, especially cash and cash equivalents.
* The risks of accounts receivable and inventory spiking. Why a spike in accounts receivable and/or inventory can be a warning sign for dividend investors.
* Why I really like Kimberly-Clark's trends on accounts receivable and inventory.
* Liabilities: Short-term and long-term liabilities.
* Why I dislike companies that take on long-term liabilities (bonds) to buy back shares and raise dividends.
* Why I look at debt as a percentage of market capitalization.
* Stockholders' Equity: Why it's not the most important metric for a dividend investor, but why it still has some value.
* Specific examples from Kimberly-Clarkโs balance sheet with real numbers.
Learn how to analyze dividend-paying stocks just like myself.

About the Site ๐

Origins of the Idea ๐ฑ
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. ๐ง
Challenges Faced ๐ค
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. ๐
Creating Truly Random Links ๐ ๏ธ
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
