Hi all,
I've been invited by a person called Guna who I assume is the Administrator of this forum to continue the legacy that was Wallstraits, and then Afralug. This forum is called Value Buddies and is quite a catchy name haha.
Sadly, when Afralug went down on August 1, 2010, many of the excellent threads also went down along with it; with almost no hope of recovering the valuable information and analysis which were contained in them. It is now our job, as forumers, to build up the same kind of community which Wallstraits (and Afralug) used to enjoy; with a myriad of views and intelligent, respectful exchanges.
There should be no personal attacks, flaming or spamming of any sort, and I am hoping the forum remains civil and polite and that all views will be accepted. Of course, all discussions will be of a value investing nature and pertain to Benjamin Graham's and Warren Buffett's precepts and teachings. This forum shall primarily be a platform where investors dig deep and analyze companies as good businesses to own; and not as mere inventory to be traded around to the highest bidder.
As of now, I am unsure how to contact the previous esteemed forumers dydx and d.o.g., who were among the best contributors of Wallstraits. If anyone has their contacts or email, please inform them of this new website cum forum, so that they may lend their valuable inputs as well.
As for the rest of the previous gang, please actively sign up with your (old) nicks and begin contributing!
Long live Value Investing!
