I get emails from a lot of readers to write about various topics. The topics requested are important for most investors and I think a majority of the readers of the blog would benefit from them.
I have put a poll on the list of topics which have been requested in the past (except point 6) and would write on the topic which gets the most votes. If you want a different topic to be written about and is not on the list, please leave a comment and i will take it up in a future poll.
I am sure you can guess, which topic will get my vote :)
Dear Rohit,
ReplyDeleteThe following is my list of priority items. I could always learn a bit more and appreciate thoughts around (in order of priority) -
1. How to search and analyse investment ideas
2. How to read and analyse an annual report. With a proper detailed check list.
3. Portfolio Management. Including monitoring tools.
4. DCF
5. Goofups and learnings for 2012.
I suppose the brilliance and magnetic personality of Rohit Chauhan will always shine through in all the items above 1-through 5 ;) So i will get it free along with each of the above.
Best, Vidyanshu.

Physical performance in terms of volumes of various goods sold helped analysts to figure out average selling price and hence pricing power. This vital information is now no longer available.
I guess we need to revisit "analysis of annual reports".
