Will cover value research online with a different perspective.The site is a specialised mutual fund site and so differs from moneycontrol which has mutual funds as one of its activities.
The value research has a dynamic team in place and its CEO, Mr.Dhirender is a respected name in the otherwise murky world of money business, where opinions are bought and sold.
The pluses of this site are
1. Comments on money market -are posted daily and help keep the investor posted on all developments of stock and debt markets.
2. Mutual funds analysis -is regularly done, whether it be nfo or an old fund.This helps in investor take an informed decision.
3. Any change in a fund strategy or its management is commented upon promptly.
4. The comments on all mutual funds are done objectively, with no bias. The chances of success or failure are analysed and reasons given. The CEO is not in awe of any fund house.
5.The site is quoted by all fund houses and thus acknowledged as a single authority on mutual funds.
6. The star rating of mutual funds helps in selecting the mutual fund to invest in.
7.The site believes in a dynamic commentary and does not live on past glory.
8.Performance statistics are available on weekly, monthly, annual basis for all mutual funds.
9. Site allows one to build one’s portfolio and follow it up.
10. Site is very easy to navigate.
WISH LIST
All good things can do with improvement and this is what I wish the site would add
1.Daily N.A.V-as in the money control site, daily values of mfs should be updated.
2. Qs and answer section should be revived.If aim is to avoid overload, qs can be made a pay per qs feature.
3.ULIPs should be covered more seriously.At present they say insurance and investments should not be mixed, but the fact is that insurance is attracting more money than any other savings instrument esp related to stock market.
4. A message board should be added to make the site more interactive.
