Research

Below is a list of sources where you can do research companies for articles on Wikinvest. If there's a source you're using that's not listed here, let us know!

Companies

Annual Reports

Companies that file with the SEC

The company’s 10-K (domestic companies) or 20-F (foreign companies) filing with the SEC are excellent sources of verifiable information, and can be found online through the SEC. The Company Overview, Risk Factors, and Consolidated Financial Statements sections are usually especially helpful.

Others

Each exchange has different filing requirements so you will have to do your own research to find annual reports for companies traded on non-U.S. exchanges. Most often, a company will post a version of their annual report on their website in an investor relations section.

Blogs

  • The Wikinvest Wire -- The Wikinvest Wire is a blog service that finds post related to companies and other investment topics for you. Simply go to a Wikinvest page and look to the right sidebar, under Related Articles. If there are blog posts about this company or topic in the Wire, you will see a section called Related Blog Posts. In addition, you can see a record of all Related Blog Posts from the Wikinvest Wire by clicking "See all related posts", which will take you to a page similar to this one for Amgen (AMGN): Amgen's related blog posts from the Wikinvest Wire.
  • SeekingAlpha has earnings calls transcripts and aggregates blog posts.

Mainstream Sources

Private Reports

It is OK for you to use your own private reports -- for example, Morningstar reports -- in your articles; however, you should try to track down all data in the reports from the company's Annual Reports. If you're lucky, you might even be able to find some of these types of reports on [Scribd] and be able to link to them.
