An Update


After falling behind with the updates for about 3 months, I've finally made the effort to catch up. As well as staying on top of the updates, I'll also be working on some new functionality for the site.

So far in 2008


What a time to be finalising the website... While the market has been pretty ugly all year, the performance of the rating system had been holding up ok until the precipitous drop of the past month or two. The constant stream of particularly bad news lately has hit all stocks hard. I'll be posting a full summary of the ratings system's performance in the next couple of days. On a preliminary glance it seems the most conservative and predictable value stocks with low debt ...more
