Not the can-lose-money with which people speculate and not the let-me-dabble-and-see-how-it-goes money.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s money that people take seriously because their financial security and ability to fulfill their responsibilities and meet personal goals depends on it.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how\"><strong>How has this made Moneyworks4me different? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Enable decision making and not providing loads of data<\/strong>. What data to provide and how to represent it is driven by whether it helps investors take decisions.<\/p>\n<p>So we chose to provide a set of data that is necessary and together sufficient to take a decision.<\/p>\n<p>This prevents us from being tempted to show more and more data on our site (maybe we lose some organic traffic) because data overload is a big problem that hinders decision taking.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are no compromises eg. we show data over 10 years to cover periods of economic growth and downturn but we colour-code it so you can interpret this very easily.<\/p>\n<p>We also complement data with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneyworks4me.com\/mobile-site\/analyst-notes\/analyst-notes-detailed\/reportid\/833\">Analyst note<\/a> which provides a view beyond numbers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Decide on Fundamentals for Long term investing.<\/strong> There is a big temptation to present technical analysis and a view of the short-term performance along with the Fundamental analysis and claim its superiority.<\/p>\n<p>However, this is not true and one is likely to get confusing and contradictory signals from these leading to wrong decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Investments based on fundamentals rely on assessing the fair value and anchoring to that.<\/p>\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneyworks4me.com\/find-best-stocks-indian-share-market\">MoneyWorks4me<\/a>, we look for triggers in the company\u2019s performance rather than technical which depends on stocks price movement (we have tried this and it doesn\u2019t work).<\/p>\n<p>For example, if new capacities are likely to increase production, revenues and profits then we have a trigger for buying.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"valuation\"><strong>Do rigorous valuation for the Top Companies and not use Algo-driven models for this.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The biggest investments for retail investors happen and should happen in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneyworks4me.com\/best-index\/top-stocks\/top-large-cap-companies-list\/\">best large<\/a>, top companies at a reasonable price if not at an attractive discount.<\/p>\n<p>This requires getting as good an estimate of these companies as fair value as possible. There are sites that use algos (based on a statistical analysis of the stocks price history) to determine the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneyworks4me.com\/investmentshastra\/stock-investment\/buy-stocks-at-right-price-50-discount-to-minimize-risk-and-get-fantastic-returns\/\">fair value of stocks<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneyworks4me.com\/investmentshastra\/stock-investment\/how-a-process-for-buying-selling-can-help-you-reduce-remorse\/\">attractive buy and sell price<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If this was effective, there would be no need for fundamental analysis and whiz kids and the computers would have been the wealthiest people by now.<\/p>\n<p>The problem with algo-based valuations is that they throw up a wide range of outcomes. The range tends to be wider when the stock\u2019s prices in the past have been more volatile.<\/p>\n<p>When we tried our hand at algorithms, we had found the valuation of companies had varied outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>A company with a fair value of 100 showed a valuation range of 50-350. We have seen this happening with another website that following algo methodology (you too can find this by checking 10 to 20 stocks). Now that\u2019s too large a range to make a decision to invest.<\/p>\n<p>One may expect human error rate of 10-20% around their estimated value; but since algorithm work on past volatility (without paying heed to exceptions), it throws up a very arbitrary range of outcome.<\/p>\n<p>While algorithms can be used as a quick-low-effort input it does not provide a conviction to invest.<\/p>\n<p>Businessmen don\u2019t use \u2018algorithm\u2019 to take expansion or acquisition decisions they analyze hard numbers themselves.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"investing\"><strong>But what about investing in mid and small cap stocks beyond 200?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We recommend using the Mutual fund route to invest in these stocks. Algo-based valuations of stocks beyond 200 are likely to give an even wider range making it very difficult and risky to take decisions based on it.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"123\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>MoneyWorks4me<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"223\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Algo based websites<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"123\">Analysis<\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">Fundamental; qualitative and quantitative research, involves studies of business and management.<\/td>\n<td width=\"223\">Based on past volatility, set formulas don\u2019t account for a change in the economic environment, business strategy, etc.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"123\">Information<\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">Filtered information for quick decisions highlights risks and key points.<\/td>\n<td width=\"223\">A lot of information at disposal.
