When I first started participating on this board I was mocked for bringing up exactly the same sentiment - it pays to look out for, and be aware of, the risks, and possible negative outcomes that the company may encounter. In fact, I dedicate significant research time to investigating the downside risks, perhaps even more than the upside. It simply makes sense when your goal is protection of your capital. Think about what can go wrong, and with a good company that leaves you with not much on the list, you know it's a good shout if the fundamentals are also good.
