If you're looking for a multi-bagger, there's a few things to keep an eye out for.

Put simply, these types of businesses are compounding machines, meaning they are continually reinvesting their earnings at ever-higher rates of return. Speaking of which, we noticed some great changes in Fattal Holdings (1998)'s (TLV:FTAL) returns on capital, so let's have a look.
Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE)
