About Us
This is a beta site that launched in May 2008. It was created to support
individual investors in their investing needs.
Individual Investors
Individual investors need to have access to the same tools that the
professionals have.
Every stock trading website has advanced stock trading tools and tools that
monitor the stocks performance. That is not what this site is about.
This site gives you the ability to analyze how the company is performing and
most importantly it allows you to calculate what a company is worth.
Wether you're just investing your play money, or investing your savings,
everyone needs to be able to figure out when to buy and sell a stock. That
decision can't really be made unless you can figure out how much a company is
worth.
We provide the tools that allow you to determine what a company is worth using
your own assesment of it's growth potential and risk. To make that assesment we
provide past performance data and risk measures that can support your decision.
When that information is unavailable we have the tools that allow you to
analyze earnings statements and get the data you need.
In addition we have a number of reports that provide you with other users
opinions that you can use as your starting off point to develop your own. We
also have a community component that allows you to create invetment clubs
called hives so you research the stocks with your friends and family.
Finance Bloggers
You can use our publishing platform that contains over 60 custom tags of charts,
tables and report lists and much more that can be customized to suit your color
pallete and style.
The tags allow you to create your own templates that take much of the effort out
of creating good looking reports. The system also has default templates that
you can use to get you started.
You can save the results of the fair value calculator and publish those
automatically in your report. Everything is done to spare you time and effort
it takes to create good looking reports so you can focus on analyzing the stock
and sharing that with the public.
Shared Database
Having good financial data on public companies is the foundation for determining
your investment strategy. As individual investors we have to pull our resources
together to compete with Wall St. This database is created by the community for
the community. Using our tools it takes as little as 5 minutes to process an
annual report. Your contribution is appreciated.
