if you have the guts there was also a write up of fiat from the contest that was thought provoking .

Too painful to me to see how these guys invest -- how different they are from me and what they call value. Just like having to read posts from some people here. Ha!

Most of the stocks that were discussed hold no interest for me - the value's too hidden for me,
Me...Me..Me...

And Me being this Message 28447522

Please explain how you support what you are posting as opposed to what you are finding painful.

Stocks that hit new lows are not value stocks. Value stocks as defined by Graham are stocks that are selling for values that are not recognized by the market. If you want to go with Graham analyses stick to Graham anaylyses.

The hedge fund guys have an issue with tracked performance. They must find "value" stocks with catalysts to unlock that value right now. Some crazy stocks have been called value: AMZN by Miller comes to mind first.

I've gone through the 2/3 of first day presentations so far. Not much interesting for me too. It's quite possible that some of these ideas will work out great, but they don't appeal to me.

What do you guys think about NFLX long? Tilson's thesis is at marketfolly.com It's hard to value due to heavy investment into the streaming content. Both earnings and CFs are shot because of that. We don't know if they are overpaying and will never recover the spent costs. The only measure that can be used right now is P/S, which is pretty low. I am somewhat interested.

Also Tilson - BRK.A - I still hold smallish position. I can't get myself excited to buy more, since IMHO Buffett replacements are not very great whatever he claims.

But then I sold AAPL thinking the same and the post-Jobs collapse is yet to come. I was way too early although some signs of trouble are possibly emerging.

ALEX - took a look at this one. Clearly the (under)valuation can be done only based on their holdings. Which is tough for me to do. I took a look at Hawaii RE and it never went down. Probably Asians still buying everything in sight. It seems to me that investing in Florida would be way more attractive. I'll skip ALEX.
