Very considerate of you, Pirah, but I paid special attention to the conversations today during my tally. At the time I made it, there were 50 posts on the day. Nine of them related to companies of interest, 13 were social, and 28 (56%) addressed valuation methods. The disappointing thing is that there were no conclusions reached, just unsupported assertions.

It made me wonder if we shouldn't create a version of Project Hunt for those who want to propose valuation theories. It really would be nice to see some of these methods put to a standard objective test. Perhaps we could take a single consensus Gorilla, like Cisco, and see if the various valuation methods could predict inflection points over the last 5 years. Do you think this would be useful or possible?
