Does anyone know of any good books on how to analyse financial statements? Also, how do I know when to invest?
This is a great book on how to really read financial statement:

Analyzing financial statements is a skilled task, so you need knowledge from people who know how to do it. There is a website called http://www.finysis.net which produces some of the best books I have seen on analyzing industrial, manufacturing, retail, trading and insurance companies. Their Financial Analytical Tools also help you to choose when to invest in a company's shares. I made a lot of money by investing in Rio Tinto using their "Corporate Analysis" books and Tool. Try out their website at http://www.finysis.net.

Invest in what? Stocks, bonds, real estate, ball bearings? Investing is not something you are going to learn on Yahoo.

All you really need to know is sales and earnings growth.
As to when - learn technical analysis. Just do a search on Amazon - there are several good books on the subject that come up at the top.
