I just came across this URL the other day, very comprehensive..Also saw an idea which I liked for tracking large quantities of stock which might come into your buying range... Set up portfolio in SI, use 1 share and put the price you would consider buying, a quick scan shows the red ones (below buy price)and its easy to check news etc...Scott 207.226.179.207

MarkM: for web-based value articles that are "good" -- that would be in the eye of the beholder IMO. To get started on SI, I'd look at any of Mike Burry thread topics -- there's a "related site" spot on this thread page that will take you to there. For starters also - ideas, books, more info., go to his web page: www.sealpoint.com. Also, for investment ideas, sites, etc. scan through this SI thread: Subject 8625. Other value web sites are maintained by people who either have a thread here on SI or post to this particular thread. In my opinion- they have something to sell or to hide or else are way too whiny in anticipating the end of the bull market and the world as we know it. I find these sites disconcerting and worthless. You maybe as a beginner should read what they say-- but imo, that will likely just confuse and distract you from what is the basis of value investing: Finding, buying, and holding undervalued stocks until they become fully or fairly valued. But of course, this is my definition and my opinion-- not necessarily what is, and what you see as best for you. Also check out investor.msn.com Also moringstar.net. Try this search engine organizer??(sorry not sure what they call these things) set to value investing: www.dogpile.com. You should come up with some interesting sites. There isn't a free lunch around here -g-. I spent > .5 hour writing this to you. So if you do dig deep into any of these general starting points... come back here with what you've found, the "how to's" and the names of good potential sites and the stocks recommended there -- and share that info. with us. Aside: This is not an endorsement of Mike or his recommendations, his philosophy, his ideas, his stock picks, his friends or associates. And I am not trying to curry favor with him either! It's just that when there are good (IMO) sites out there, and I refer to them myself, I am just acknowledging that. And I have been wrong many, many times before -g-. Paul Senior
