Stock Analysis

We’ve done some buy­ing in the last week, includ­ing PPM, PLT, MMS, ASG, NWH, and QPM. You can read my analy­sis reports on them in the Light blog posts.

BUY LIST

Each week we pro­duce a buy list based on our val­ue invest­ing sys­tem that we share with our QAV Club mem­bers. The intend­ed pri­ma­ry pur­pose of this buy list is for club mem­bers to use as a ref­er­ence for com­par­ing their own buy list. In the­o­ry, all of our buy lists should look pret­ty sim­i­lar each week.

As per recent weeks, I’m pro­vid­ing only ONE ver­sion of the AU list — it just has the buy list (live and sta­t­ic ver­sions) vis­i­ble, but the oth­er sheets are there, just hid­den, so unhide them if you want them. There’s also a short run U.S. list this week.
