Professor's tips:

All companies listed on the stock exchanges are publicly traded and  the information you will need can be  found on the company’s website.  This includes but is not limited to financial reports, annual reports,  and investor reports. Information may be found through other sources as  well (such as 10-Q and 10-K reports  for domestic companies). So please  use all tools available to you.
