Please note that i am not officially associated with website. Only an active contributor & hope to benefit from network effects of interested investors actively contributing on platform.

Develop an understanding of the biz, industry, competitive intensity, management, valuation
Website was created > 10 years ago. Early users are seasoned investors & i personally look to learn greatly by following their footprints across the website.
There are broadly speaking 4-5 types of "threads" or discussion places across the website.
1. Featured discussions (hall of fame, showcase discussions, learning).

These enable investor to level up the most. These discussions are a showcase for the website itself.
These are also a great starting point. Since VP is not a course, feel free to traverse them in any order
Better to start with Showcase discussions first (read Avanti feeds thread
https://t.co/ltsVOUeJ9j

It has 2083 posts of this writing written since Sep 2012. Read all of them. Read the links, pdfs, videos embedded in this thread.
Understand how company evolved, how investors perception evolved, how investors were able to build conviction or hold on during tough times. How prices drive perception. Understand how people's valuation models changed as a function of time.
Repeat this for all showcase discussions.
Then move on to hall of fame & learning. These are more advanced threads. If you dont understand them, dont worry. You just need to read more company threads (similar to avanti feeds, more on this later)

but aim to read "hall of fame" & "learning" too in some medium term horizon
2. Company threads. If you click on the forum tab:
you are taken to the full set of threads on everything on the valuepickr forum.
These different categories have their own rules and expectations.
Go to the "about" page and understand the rules and description of what this category is about.

VP has evolved over time. Earlier it used to be easy to create new thread for a company for which a thread does not already exist. Threshold is higher now, leading to higher quality discussions.

See this thread i started for indigo paints:

Remember please be respectful, fact driven, objective all the time.

Posts like "what is happening to the price" are borderline spam. Add posts which add value. Remain mindful & respectful. Focus on doing analysis & adding value.
3. Portfolio threads & general Q&A:

This category of threads is the ones with least restrictions.

https://t.co/UrEHlvoxQP

Feel free to explore portfolio threads here or ask Qs on common beginner investor doubts thread.
4. There is a special corner of website for highest data driven fact focussed collaborative investing posts where threshold to post is very high. this is to keep discussions as clean & useful as possible.
This is also more moderated than others. This is called collaborators corner

Eg: see this collaborators corner thread on laurus labs:

Another thing. You need to be logged in to post. Since VP is a platform, platforms can be misused. So it is pertinent for moderators to ensure platform is not misused. Even as interested users we do not want abuse of platform.
Thus, moderators insist on some level of identity check when signing up. I think this is reasonable. 99% users have no use case for hiding identity.

Provide as much info as you can when signing up.
5. for each user, there is a use profile page.

Eg: see my page:

This is publicly visible to everyone.

one of biggest source of learning for me has been collaborative filtering:

Looking to learn from writings of those ahead of me in investing curve.
End of thread.
PS: this is not an official take on VP. only writing as a user. (I am also a collaborator on VP, but dont benefit from it in any way).

My only intention is to motivate enough people to contribute good data driven analysis on platform.
Please retweet for maximum reach. 🙏🙏🙏

This is an informal unofficial guide to using the amazing resource that VP is.

#neulandlab 🌋🌋 read on to understand this company and its story of transformation. On twitter, 🌋 has become synonymous with neuland, and this is how i will use it throughout the thread. If you like the thread, plz retweet & help fellow investors learn


Starting with a simple primer on the Pharma industry. They make medicines for all of us. The part of the medicine which gives it its potency against the ailment it cures is called API: Active Pharmaceutical

(here is a reference few people will get, but have to make it since I love it :D):
If Guardians of the globe (
https://t.co/vH2C1TDbPy) were a medicine, Omniman (https://t.co/0DGb1MAtXN) is the API.


Back to 🌋. There are pharma companies which sell APIs as well as the finished medicine (FDF: Finished Dosage Formulation). Neuland are pureplay API manufacturers. This provides them some advantage since they don't compete with their clients (the FDF makers).

Medicine is diverse. There are medicine which were first discovered in 1920s (https://t.co/6DXNrhOK46), to those being created now (https://t.co/tcr7dAexmO). Naturally then, some of this involves very complex chemistry to manufacture, others are relatively easier to manufacture.

🌺श्री गरुड़ पुराण - संक्षिप्त वर्णन🌺

हिन्दु धर्म के 18 पुराणों में से एक गरुड़ पुराण का हिन्दु धर्म में बड़ा महत्व है। गरुड़ पुराण में मृत्यु के बाद सद्गती की व्याख्या मिलती है। इस पुराण के अधिष्ठातृ देव भगवान विष्णु हैं, इसलिए ये वैष्णव पुराण है।


गरुड़ पुराण के अनुसार हमारे कर्मों का फल हमें हमारे जीवन-काल में तो मिलता ही है परंतु मृत्यु के बाद भी अच्छे बुरे कार्यों का उनके अनुसार फल मिलता है। इस कारण इस पुराण में निहित ज्ञान को प्राप्त करने के लिए घर के किसी सदस्य की मृत्यु के बाद का समय निर्धारित किया गया है...

..ताकि उस समय हम जीवन-मरण से जुड़े सभी सत्य जान सकें और मृत्यु के कारण बिछडने वाले सदस्य का दुख कम हो सके।
गरुड़ पुराण में विष्णु की भक्ति व अवतारों का विस्तार से उसी प्रकार वर्णन मिलता है जिस प्रकार भगवत पुराण में।आरम्भ में मनु से सृष्टि की उत्पत्ति,ध्रुव चरित्र की कथा मिलती है।


तदुपरांत सुर्य व चंद्र ग्रहों के मंत्र, शिव-पार्वती मंत्र,इन्द्र सम्बंधित मंत्र,सरस्वती मंत्र और नौ शक्तियों के बारे में विस्तार से बताया गया है।
इस पुराण में उन्नीस हज़ार श्लोक बताए जाते हैं और इसे दो भागों में कहा जाता है।
प्रथम भाग में विष्णुभक्ति और पूजा विधियों का उल्लेख है।

मृत्यु के उपरांत गरुड़ पुराण के श्रवण का प्रावधान है ।
पुराण के द्वितीय भाग में 'प्रेतकल्प' का विस्तार से वर्णन और नरकों में जीव के पड़ने का वृत्तांत मिलता है। मरने के बाद मनुष्य की क्या गति होती है, उसका किस प्रकार की योनियों में जन्म होता है, प्रेत योनि से मुक्ति के उपाय...
