As most of us all probably know at some level, uninformed investing can be no different than gambling. Sure, in a bull market, you will see many people making money while knowing little about the company for which they invest, but most sensible people, even in light of all this Q/E infinity, will generally find it uncomfortable to invest large sums of their hard earned money (or many times, life savings) into situations that they know nothing about.
But with thousands of companies to choose from, it can be hard to sift through all the information, and remain an informed investor. This is why I like using other peoples work.
Yes, Seekingalpha can be terrible – horrific even, to the point where you question how people are still, after these years, able to get away with some of the things you will see posted over there sometimes, but even so, many times you will also see stuff like this..
“4/29/20: Things take a bizarre turn with a scenario that you will only see in the world of micro-caps. A video is allegedly posted on morganchillcott.comwhich features an image of AgEagle's logo next to an Amazon.com logo. Morgan Chillcott is the daughter of AgEagle founder Bret Chillcott. There was no explanation provided and the media was removed after a short amount of time along with the website itself. But it was enough to set retail investors on fire and send the stock up 640% from $0.80 to as high as $5.15 intraday on Apr 30th.”
This really helped save me a lot of time. Normally you would have to sift through all their filings, and basically start from scratch, and anybody who has done this will know that this can take a very long time, whereas when you use somebody else's work, you can quickly get a nice rundown of the company..
Cheers, just thought I'd post this. Warming up to Tradingview lol.
