I'm reading a book at the moment that says

"Avoid doing your own fundamental analysis even if you
have some highly specialized training. I’ve been trading futures
for over 30 years and frequently lecture on fundamental analysis to
graduate students at a major university, yet I wouldn’t think of
doing my own fundamental analysis. True fundamental experts,
who are much better qualified than you or I, are devoting full time
to this task, and their conclusions are readily available at no cost."

Would anyone care to recommend any good source(s) of fundamental analysis for either here or the US?

I subscribe to StockDoctor. There is nothing that they provide that is not freely available on the net.

It would be impossible to compile and assess all of the information available yourself, you could probably track a dozen stocks if you knew how to analyse reports etc.
I also depends on whether you are prepared to put a price on having instant access to this info.

Two portions of available info on two different stocks attached as an example.
