Getting started in stocks

Hi RealTraders

I'm ready to take the "dive" into researching stocks.  I recently received
Windows on Wallstreet and want to start sorting through the different stocks.

If you could please answer a fews questions for me -- make comments, etc.   :)

What fundamental information do you consider most important when selecting
your stocks?  I've heard things like:

1) Don't buy stocks under $8.00
2) Make sure the company is well capitalized -- (how do you do that?).  Or,
shown a profit for the past 2 quarters.
3) The P/E ratio should be at a certain level.  (Which P/E ratio & what
levels are good v. bad?)
4) What do you look for regarding dividends?
5) What and how do you find out about splits and how do you take advantage
of that?

Any extra ideas?

Thank you for answering these questions -- 

Denise
