Let us understand What Value “Valuepickr” site offers

Functional : Connect , Inform , Reduce Effort
Emotional : Badge Value

How does it compare with other value investing forum … and how it can enhance it value more …

What “other” value investing fora are you referring to? I’m unaware of them… care to shed some more light?

Beat example that came to mind is the focus of various religions in the social impact, emotional and life changing categoriws. No wonder they have managed to survive and thrive for thousands of years. During wars, crisis, inflation , recession they only get more followers.

Other examples that came to mind were Coke and iPhone and many luxury cars that appeal to the emotional parameters and people are willing to pay for that.

All Investing / Trading forum/blogs / groups are value investing forum as everyone who buys any asset does so because he thinks there is a value . Perception of value may be different . Like Most Valuepickr buddies define value -" Quality ( Read Moat , Non cyclicals , preferably consumer facing , low capital intensive ) business at reasonable price" .

Other forums may have different view of what is value …

Some examples for Investing / Trading forums


Moneycontrol.com , Twitter groups . Blogger groups ( safal niveshak , stable investor etc … )

Let us take IPhone as example : Let us explore how many of 30 value icons it contains

Functional : Connect , Simplifies, reduce effort , quality , variety , sensory appeal , informs
Emotional : Design / Asthetics , Badge Value , Attractiveness , Provide access ( Apple ecosystem )
Life Changing : Affiliation

That is nearly 12 out of 30 value elements . How does competition Samsung compares with it .

Can we take this comparison at Firm level APPLE VS SAMSUNG .

I see almost all benefits are applicable to ValuePickr. Including self actualization. When people contribute to the forum and some one says that helped them then that satisfaction is more than money. Similarly we get rewards from other people’s knowledge of companies and sectors etc.
