Are private investors just a bunch of happy gamblers who should let the โreal dealโ aka professionals invest for them instead? Idk, maybe, maybe not. Peoples own choice, right? But I have an opinion about how media undervalue private investors.
THREAD: STOP UNDERVALUE THE PRIVATE INVESTORS
The misunderstanding of private investors - primarily known as amateur investors when talked about - done by media and professionals is too much.
Are you ready? Hope you will enjoy this one and bring your voice into the debate๐๐
Are private investors just a bunch of happy gamblers who should let the โreal dealโ aka professionals invest for them instead? Idk, maybe, maybe not. Peoples own choice, right? But I have an opinion about how media undervalue private investors.
There are many smart persons out there, which have a great skill to hold the same (or more ) knowledge and understanding than professionals.
Why? Because the world has developed so much and the information-level have changed๐จ
Earlier on you would not get access to accounting; it could be sent by Bloomberg terminal, send by post and even cost money. Now every accounting for every public company is available for free right after disclosure.
Professionals had exclusive access to the board, and even the founders, the professionals had access to industry experts and could connect the dots faster.
Now every interview with the company, blog post by an industry leader or a Q&A with founders is available realtime.
Professionals have a great network (and they really do), which earlier on was an edge. But now the private investors have a great network as well (thank you SoMe!). Look at Twitter, Reddit, Discord, Facebook groups... Crazy scale on crowdsourcing!
@chamath said it great here:
โr/wallstreetbets is now the largest hedge fund in the world.
Excepts itโs completely decentralized and entirely democratic.โ

I think the HF, banks and PE-people still have a significant advantage in speed and execution (and network)!. But if both parties โ private and Professionals โ are longterm, I think the edge a lot smaller than many think.
They live with their math-models, they have never been โhustlingโ on a company, they have never disrupted anything themselves. They have never tried to make a campaign on SoMe, getting funding, setting up a company from the bottom or dealt with a PR-crisis, etc.
The above is more like an entrepreneur, but it not limited to that. A software developer has (hopefully) more knowledge about this sector than an HF-analyst, which measure the sector by โoldโ financial-reports.
And common for the above is that they probably have a greater network than everybody else (=outsiders) inside their sector. That is an edge.
It is a little bit funny how every professional think they can judge a sector or company better than private. Still, the private can definitely not do a better job at investing than the Professionals. Ironic, right?
I think the media and Professionals undervalued how competent people are out there, how willing people are to share their info and work together. And least: How much information there are available.

Many of you have seen the famous Westrum Organizational Typology model, so prominently featured in State of DevOps Research, Accelerate, DevOps Handbook, etc.
This model was created Dr. Ron Westrum, a widely-cited sociologist who studied the impact of culture on safety
Thanks to Dr. @nicolefv, I was able to interview him for an upcoming episode of the Idealcast! ๐คฏ
It was a very heady experience, and while preparing to interview him, I was startled to discover how much work he's done in healthcare, aviation, spaceflight, but also innovation.
I've read 4+ of his papers, so I thought I was familiar with his work. (Here's one paper: https://t.co/7X00O67VgS)
I was startled to learn he has also studied in depth what enables innovation. He wrote a wonderful book "Sidewinder: Creative Missile Development at China Lake"
Dr. Westrum writes about China Lake Research Labs: "its design and structure had one purpose: to foster technical creativity. It did; China Lake operated far outside the normal envelope... Sidewinder & others were "impossible" accomplishments,
I love this book because it describes traits of organizations that routinely create and maintain greatness: US space program (Mercury, Gemini, Apollo), US Naval Reactors, Toyota, Team of Teams, Tesla, the tech giants (Amazon, Google, Netflix, Google)

A ๐งตon the basics of block and bulk deals.
Block and bulk deals are large purchases of stocks by investment banks, mutual funds, hedge funds, pension funds, FIIs, and promoters. Tracking block and bulk deals can help give you a sense of what these large players are thinking.
A single transaction where shares more than Rs 10 crores or the number of shares traded are more than 5 lakh is considered a block deal.
Block deals are carried out in separate trading windows. This trading window operates in two shifts of 15 minutes each:
Morning trading window from 8:45 AM to 9:00 AM.
Afternoon trading window from 2:05 PM to 2:20 PM
Block deals happen in different windows to reduce volatility and sudden price movements. Given that they are traded in a separate window, they do not show up on the volume charts.
Brokers facilitating the transaction are required to inform the exchange. You can track bulk and block deals on NSE & BSE:

Bad ballot design led to a lot of undervotes for Bill Nelson in Broward Co., possibly even enough to cost him his Senate seat. They do appear to be real undervotes, though, instead of tabulation errors. He doesn't really seem to have a path to victory. https://t.co/utUhY2KTaR

The YouTube algorithm that I helped build in 2011 still recommends the flat earth theory by the *hundreds of millions*. This investigation by @RawStory shows some of the real-life consequences of this badly designed AI.
