Survey Summary.Dec 2011

Hi everyone, Thank you so much to those who completed the survey - a summary of the results is outlined below.    This survey  reinforces the needs of the group and it clearly highlights that members are most interested in analyzing stocks as well as reviewing bond investing strategies as a second priority.   The remaining   three categories in question #1 are listed in priority sequence.   As part of company reviews we can discuss components of the analysis such as P/E ratio, debt/equity ratios, etc.   In regards to guest speakers there were a number of suggestions and I recommend we pursue some of the suggestions and create a separate meeting date for guest speakers...possibly on the months we are not scheduled to meet and also invite other clubs to these meetings.   It appears that we will not be participating in the Investopedia challenge ...some of us have taken part in this and it was a lot of fun but it does require commitment from members. We will take some time at our next
