I am a scientist by day, and an amateur stock-picker on weekends. I have been investing since 2003, and my fundamental approach is a value-oriented buy-and-hold strategy. I started this blog when I found that there is a dearth of information about value investing on the web. Most of the discussion on message boards and popular discussion sites are fragmented and incomplete at best, and downright scams at worst. The few bits of quality discussion is sequestered in subscription-only boards.
On this blog, I aim to provide quality stock analyses and articles about value investing strategies. My main motivation is that the need to provide material for this blog will continually hone my investment skills. I put my money where my mouth is, so you can expect that I have a position in any stock that I favorably review.
In return, I hope that readers like you will post comments sharing your views and ideas, so that we can all benefit. Together, we can all become better stock-pickers, for fun and profit.
Yours sincerely,
valuegeek

Love your blog. Just discovered it about 20min ago, read a few of your articles. I’m not a neuroscientist but your stock picks, ideas, and rationales are very similar to the conclusions I come to.
I enjoy having my, in my opinion, well thought out stock picks being reinforced. Unfortunately until now I have been unable to find a place to give me a nice overview of some of my picks.
Thanks, and keep up the good work.

I find out your site fits squarely with another site: http://www.invest18.com. The site has good quality discussion. Like you guys said, it is very hard to find site for good quality info and discussion.
ValueGeek, you should post your article there to get more readers. Invest18.com has the same of your idea – sharing good ideas.

Your blog is interesting. I especially note that, out of only about 20 positions I own, we have overlap. I own MKTAY, which appears to have the rare value of being both cheap and fairly non-risky. Like you, I also owned TX, which I sold in the low 30′s. And DELL is on my IRA buy list, if the stock price can manage to stay low until 2009. I would be interested to see if you think FRD, HNP, or AIRT look interesting.
