Update and Upcoming on OSV

A quick update for readers. Whether you have noticed or not, posts have been trickling in at 1 a week. It will probably be this way for another 1-2 weeks. So to keep you up to date and not leave you in the dark, here are some ideas I have for Old School Value.

Social Investing with Twitter

Also, if you haven’t noticed, VVTV has finally garnered big institution buyers with a turnaround looking to happen soon. And rather than posting up 1 short paragraph, I have been having dicussions, receiving latest news, links and investor material from fellow investing twitter mates.

It does make life easier because I have it set up to deliver updates straight to my phone via normal text messages since I have a full time job and can’t spend a lot of time on the internet.

Some twitter investors you should look up and follow who won’t spam you (do a search for these usernames):

• asues
• cavalatica

Upcoming on OSV

Here is a list of planned and upcoming articles to look forward to.

• Stock Research Analysis of Mastech Holdings (MHH) - I bought MHH and want to write a post but just cant seem to find the time to complete it. Still trying.

• Book review of F Wall Street – EXCELLENT book for all beginner to intermediate investors.

• How to Use Investment Spreadsheets – I’ll explain how I use the spreadsheets to determine the fair value of hundreds of companies in a relatively short amount of time with an accuracy of approximately 70%.

• 2009 Fortune 40 Best Stock List – Reader Aly, informed me that the 2009 Fortune 40 list is out. I’ve taken a look and it is looking good for long term passive investors. 23 changes made to the list.

Longer Term To Do List

• Change site design to improve speed. A little too rich at the moment.
• Compile and edit valuation methods and related posts into a single ebook.
