Dear Peter, First, read the signs Monitor the stock exchange to see how share prices are performing. Also, if a company has good results yearly and quarterly, it gives you an upper hand of knowing whether it is doing well. You compare the half year with the other year and that will show you whether it is going to do well or not.

Business news reports in the Press also let you know which individuals are doing well and which ones are not.
