Hi wish you all Best of Luck for tomorrows event. Will miss as down with fever, may be viral.:cry:

We had our first VP Kolkata Meet on 21st August’16 at Smash Street Cafe. There were 28 participants of all age group from 25-60 and from professional full time investors to newbie investors. A well diverified setup. We used today’s meeting for setting the tone and agenda for our subsequent sessions along with general discussions on how to approach the equity markets

The biggest takeaway from the meet was the phrase mentioned by @basumallick Sir
"DECIDE WHY YOU ARE IN THE MARKETS"

The agenda itemlist for our subsequent meetings are as follows

  • A discussion on the structured process of Equity Research and how to clearly document our thoughts

  • Identifying Businesses/Stocks that will last for a long term with minimum disruptions in form of technology or obsolecence.

  • How to generate ideas

  • Tools to use for better research and understanding

  • Identifying Parameters for future winners

  • How to identify patterns of failure

  • Allocation and Portfolio Sizing

  • Understanding how sucessful investors spend their time - What do they do, what they avoid, what they read.

  • What to read in an Annual Report

  • How to Analyse Financial Statements

  • Forensic Accounting and identifying landmines

  • Valuation of Business

  • Using the Group as a means of understanding various industries and identifying value chains in various companies

  • Discussing Big Ideas from other disciplines
