Default Re: Biggest things you look for in a stock?

The only time i dont' like a stock with debt is when the debt is more than its total cash.

Debt is often good. Companies need to borrow to grow. Well managed companies with debt are often good companies. Management should react to oppurtunities as they become available, not wait until they have the cash on hand to exploit them.

On the other hand, companies with lots of cash and no debt usually have little or no growth. A growing company would have oppurtunities put the cash to good use.
