Who Are the Value Guys!
We are career Wall Street analysts with strong opinions that get watered down by committees
filled with stuffed shirts and bureaucrats. We're paid too much to complain about it at work, so
we've gone underground to give you our unvarnished opinions without fear of being fired!
The Value Guys' current mission is to examine each week's Value Line Investment Survey and
offer our unvarnished review of a handful of our favorites. You can't buy every new
recommendations each week! Let the Value Guys help you focus on just the right few. Which
stocks are going up? Who knows? We don't -- but we try. Our entirely off-the-cuff weekend
opinions are based on many years of experience, strongly held convictions and very little actual
analytical work, so USE WITH CAUTION. Please assume we have no idea what we're talking
about and that we may be completely making up everything we say. All of our comments on this
show are for ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY!
Ordinarily, when we're at work, our professional opinions are based on a careful evaluation of
business fundamentals. Unfortunately, here on the show we pay far less attention to that than
we should. During the workweek we carefully examine such keystones to intrinsic value as return
on invested capital, free cash flow yield, liquidation value, market share trends, potential for
revenue growth and margin expansion. Again, unfortunately for listeners, we may pay no attention
to that whatsoever here on the show. Because weekend stock discussions are just a hobby and
we're often sleepy (or worse) after a long workweek , we may completely forget to analyze some
extremely critical element of a stock's value. We may, in fact, be drinking heavily - so BE WARNED
and BEWARE! OOPS.! Obviously, our opinions about stock price movements will usually be very,
very, very, very wrong! We may or may not own shares in the stocks we talk about. We may or
may not have enormously lucrative arrangements with the management teams of the stocks we
talk about. (We wish!)
The Value Line Investment Survey, the Value Guys current source of weekly ideas, publishes
weekly recommendations from a 1700+ stock universe. Value Line is an outstanding single source
of company fundamental and valuation information for the professional stock-picker. In addition,
independent studies have shown that Value Line's Timeliness Rankings have had a statistically
significant long-term track record in differentiating performance among its five rankings. We
recommend that listeners buy a subscription. We are customers ourselves and use Value Line
exclusively as a resource to this show. The Value Guys! are not affiliated with Value Line in any
Way. You'd think they'd give us a call or better yet email, but they haven't. Who knows why?
