Why bother with any diligence? The market has infinitely better resources than the amateur investor (and 99% of MT's resident pickers), and even if that wasn't the case, what's he going to do with any piece of information, be it a quick ratio review or qualitative news piece, that the market didn't price in effectively light-years ago?
I would agree if the OP intended to actively trade stocks but he's looking to buy and hold. Since he's looking to invest and not trade, due dillegence is important. Nobody should jump blindly into a long term investment.
