'Stichpunkt' (bullet point) is made up of 'Stich' (stab, prick) and 'Punkt' (point). The compound makes the image of a single, marked item in an organized list easy to understand.
Jeder Stichpunkt enthält nur eine kurze Information.
Each bullet point contains only a brief piece of information.
For an organized summary, the expressions 'etwas in Stichpunkten festhalten' (to record something in bullet points) and 'etwas in Stichpunkten darstellen' (to present something in bullet points) are especially common. The preposition 'in' is followed by the dative plural here.
Die Ergebnisse der Umfrage wurden in Stichpunkten dargestellt.

Verbs such as 'notieren' (to note), 'aufschreiben' (to write down), 'sammeln' (to collect), and 'formulieren' (to formulate) are often used with 'Stichpunkt' (bullet point). This often concerns preparing a presentation, meeting, or text.
