Valueinvesting.de: This German language value investing site includes lists of worthwhile value investing books and links. The site aims to help visitors make better investment decisions based on the strategies of Warren Buffett, Benjamin Graham, Philip Fisher and Peter Lynch.
Graham and Doddsville: An investing blog written by a convert to the Graham and Dodd approach. Posts often include excerpts of (or links to) interesting articles, speeches, and shareholder letters.
The author discusses his own career in more detail than most value bloggers. His openness is a plus, because he limits discussions of personal experiences to those that are investing related. The result is a pleasant change of pace from the opinion only focus found at most value investing blogs (including my own).
Every Little Bit Helps: Value investing blog with posts on specific companies as well as links to worthwhile investing articles.
Investing Intelligently: A good investing blog consisting of in-depth posts on specific subjects.
Value Investing Forum: A forum for discussing value investing ideas.
Dah Hui Lau: An excellent value investing blog focused on investment principles rather than specific stocks. The author frequently looks at quotes from well known value investors.
The Peridot Capitalist: An excellent, regularly updated investment blog written by the founder of Peridot Capital. This blog features plenty of company specific posts.
Rana’s Thoughts: This investing blog features plenty of lengthy posts. The focus is on investing principles rather than specific stocks. Rana’s Thoughts is a welcome change of pace from more boisterous investment blogs.
Investorial: A good personal finance blog that occasionally discusses value investing.
The Dividend Guy: Regularly updated investing blog with a focus on dividend paying stocks. The author writes clear, concise posts on subjects ranging from stock selection to investing principles.
Ant & Sons: A different kind of investing blog. Ant & Sons presents objective information followed by a brief commentary on each stock it discusses.
The blog is worth reading for the objective information. The closing comments are not particularly helpful, because unequivocal claims can not be adequately supported in such short posts.
This blog highlights stocks on the move, discusses market trends, strategies and current events of the financial markets with no bias, no agenda, no talking points, just the facts.
DealBook: Mainstream news service focusing on mergers and acquisitions, investment banking, I.P.O., private equity, hedge fund, and venture capital news. The M&A section is worth reading daily.
If you’re interested in merger arbitrage opportunities, DealBook is a good place to start. However, it doesn’t cover many of the most profitable opportunities, because such deals are too small to attract much notice. For smaller deals, you will need to review press releases or local newspaper clippings that don’t make national news.
DealBook is a financial news service produced by The New York Times. It is published daily, Monday-Friday, except on U.S. Market holidays and during the last week of the year.
The Average Joe Investor: A good blog for beginning investors. Discusses both specific companies and investing concepts simply and clearly. The length and format of the posts are perfect for the intended audience. The material is easy to digest without being dumbed down.
The Average Joe Investor website is here for two main reasons. First, to offer up some nice tasty stocks ideas that I think are not only backed by great companies but also selling at attractive prices. Secondly, I'm going to share some tools that can be used to evaluate companies that you have invested in or would like to invest in. My goal is to help beginning investors understand stock investing and the companies that they are investing in so that they can take the emotion out of the game and make some real money.
World of Tech: A technology blog consisting of company specific posts that combine news and analysis. The posts are short, informative, and direct. A must read for investors interested in technology companies.
Market Participant: A good investing blog featuring a mix of book reviews, company specific posts, and discussions of more general topics. The blog frequently discusses ETFs and income paying investments.
A site about capital markets and opportunities for profits and dividends from stock market investing. Looking at what has worked in investing, four concepts stand out. Value investing, small cap stocks, high dividend stocks, and macroeconomic trends.
The Confused Capitalist: A good regularly updated value investing blog. The author lives in Canada and occasionally mentions Canadian stocks and financial media that might otherwise go unnoticed by Americans. However, the blog is not narrowly focused on Canada, and can be enjoyed by investors living anywhere on the planet.
Facts and ideas on how to outperform the general market, portfolio management and risk, plus occasional musings on "raising the median", both economically and socially. All wrapped nicely with a value-oriented investing bias.
It's easiest to make money by thinking differently from most people: but it's tough to think differently from most people. I like exploring ideas with people who have a different viewpoint than me - viva la difference!
EasyReports.net: Provides thousands of free 10-Ks, 10-Qs, and annual reports. The site is well-organized and easy to navigate.
The Wall Street Transcript: The Wall Street Transcript provides a huge collection of interviews with executives, analysts, and money managers. The site’s finest resource is the interviews with company executives.
I highly recommend the online subscription. It is probably priced out of the range of most casual investors. However, for both professionals and individual investors who spend up to a few thousand dollars a year on various publications and advice, The Wall Street Transcript is worth considering. It is a truly unique resource.
There are a variety of different products offered. For instance, you can subscribe to one of seven sectors for just $500 a year. However, if you can afford the full online subscription, that’s the one to get.
Professionals will find the collection of interviews extraordinarily useful.
The purpose of The Wall Street Transcript is to help investors make better investment decisions when choosing stocks and sectors.
We interview Wall Street professionals and corporate leaders, which help us bring the views of stock market insiders to our readers. For over 40 years, our question and answer format has allowed our readers to obtain unique information that cannot be found anywhere else.
Wall Street 2.0: A new investment blog network that includes Absolutely No DooDahs, The Enterprising Investor, and The New Wall Street among others. This small network is off to a great start with three of the better investing blogs on the web.
Rule #1 Investor: Phil Town’s official site. Includes a blog and podcast. Phil Town is the author of the new book: Rule #1. I have yet to read the book, but George of Fat Pitch Financials has read the book and has generally positive things to say about it:
In general, I think the Rule #1 book is a very practical book that could be very useful for new investors. It is not really a replacement for the classic works, such as "The Intelligent Investor", but I think this book is good at showing you how to put some of the concepts laid out by Graham and Buffett into action.
Seeking Alpha: Seeking Alpha is more than a mere blog aggregator. The site finds the best news and analysis and sorts it into categories. Seeking Alpha doesn’t just find the best blogs; it finds the best posts. Relevant blog posts are included; irrelevant ones are excluded. Seeking Alpha has an excellent search feature that returns both blog posts and transcripts for the ticker symbol entered.
SeekingAlpha.com is a new approach to providing financial news and analysis to investors that leverages the phenomenal growth of blogs. The Seeking Alpha Network consists of 22 stock market and finance websites defined by sector and country.
Seeking Alpha editors select content from more than 60 active contributors (the majority of whom are finance professionals) and edit, tickerize and publish the content on the appropriate sector web site. The result: More thorough and timely coverage of stocks and sectors than has previously been available in online financial journalism.Visit Seeking Alpha
pfblogs.org: A simple, clean financial blog aggregator that includes over 300 personal finance, real estate, and investing blogs.
Phat Investor: A good financial blog aggregator. Phat Investor indexes more than 300 blogs.
123jump: A great resource for free earnings call summaries, fund manager Q&As, and interactive charts for economic statistics. 123jump’s staff currently conducts 200 earning calls per quarter and interviews 60 to 80 fund managers per year. The site also organizes plenty of economic data for visitors to review.
The earnings call summaries and fund manager Q&As are both amazing. There’s a lot of information on this site. This is a very worthwhile resource. The value is in the amount of content and the manner in which it is presented. The major finance portals could learn a few things from 123jump.
