I'm sorry for any confusion, but it seems there are a few different concepts mixed together in your request. I'll do my best to provide some general information related to each of them.
1. Public Companies: These are companies that have issued stocks that are available for the general public to buy and sell. These companies are required to file financial reports and other disclosures with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the United States.
2. Stock Symbols: A stock symbol is a unique identifier for a public company's stock on a stock exchange. In the US, the major stock exchanges are the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Nasdaq. For example, the stock symbol for Apple Inc. is AAPL.
3. Filetype M4P: This is a file extension used for protected music files sold through the iTunes Store. It is not related to public companies, stocks, or stock exchanges. It appears there has been some confusion with the term "filetype" and it seems you would like to know about the financial health of the companies, so let's move forward with that.
4. Earnings and Growth: These are key indicators of a company's financial health.
- Earnings: Also known as net income or profit, earnings represent the amount of money a company has made after subtracting all expenses from revenue. Earnings per share (EPS) is a measure used to gauge a company's profitability on a per-share basis.
- Growth: This is an assessment of a company's ability to increase its earnings over time. Companies that consistently grow their earnings are generally considered to be financially healthy. There are a variety of metrics used to evaluate a company's growth, such as revenue growth, earnings growth, and growth in book value.
To research public companies' earnings, growth, and other financial information, you can use financial websites such as Yahoo Finance, Google Finance, or the SEC's EDGAR database. These resources will allow you to view financial statements, filings, and other disclosures that can help you evaluate the financial health of a company. It's important to note that investing in the stock market always carries risk, so it's crucial to do thorough research and consider consulting with a financial advisor before making investment decisions.
