Eight Tips from Morningstar

[Paul Larson writes] I had the pleasure of being the lead writer and editor of three just-published Morningstar books on stocks--How to Get Started in Stocks for beginners, How to Select Winning Stocks for those looking to dig into individual companies, and How to Refine Your Stock Strategy for those who've been running their own portfolios for a while. In the course of writing some of the chapters for these books, I came up with a list of stock-investing tips that boils down our collective experience and insights here at Morningstar. Here are some of those tips. Whether you're a beginning or seasoned investor, these tips and commentary can provide a useful framework for your investing strategy.
