Are the company’s sales growing or declining?
Obviously, you want a company that’s growing. But it doesn’t have to be a
meteoric, astronomical growth curve. In fact, a steady growth curve is
better. Strong and steady wins the race. I’d rather have a steady 10%
growth over the next 50 years than a 500% growth 1 year and bankruptcy
the next. How about you?
One of the biggest reason companies fail is they grow too fast and the
management can’t keep up – never forget that.
