Deep Value Shares is a UK-based share-picking service from a best selling author called Prof. Glen Arnold. It is part of the ADVFN series of newsletters, of which we have previously reviewed Hot Stock Rockets.
We signed up back in March and there don’t seem to have been any formal recommendations yet since we joined (more on that below), as Prof. Arnold is keeping his powder dry in the current economic climate.
In terms of how his portfolio has been performing, the results have been impressive, with 15 stocks in the portfolio there has been a total return of 569%. which is a slight drop from last time but still very impressive. It equates to an average return of 38%.
There have been some very detailed articles on two companies since our last update, covering everything from:-
- Management
- Returns on net tangible assets
- Owner earnings and intrinsic value
- Financial stability
- Strategic business
- Price (value)
So about as comprehensive there as you could ask for.
As alluded to above however, it doesn’t look like either of these companies has been a recommendation yet, so it’s more for information purposes and perhaps they will become a recommendation in future.
For the time being it’s a watching brief and just soak up the information and knowledge of the expert.
Deep Value Shares – Results Update
11th July 2022
Deep Value Shares is a UK-based share-picking service from a best selling author called Prof. Glen Arnold. It is part of the ADVFN series of newsletters, of which we have previously reviewed Hot Stock Rockets.
We signed up back in March and there still haven’t been any formal recommendations yet since we joined, as Prof. Arnold is keeping his powder dry in the current economic climate.
There was however one company Prof Arnold was very close to recommending and has provided three detailed articles on. He has also published no less than six articles on one of the companies in his portfolio – so very thorough analysis.
Helpfully Prof Arnold has also provided details of how his portfolio has been performing. The results have been impressive, with 15 stocks in the portfolio there has been a total return of 628%. which is a little bit of a drop from last time but still very impressive. It equates to an average return of 42%.
Out of the 15 stocks, only two were in deficit and those were only by -1% and -10% respectively.
He has also set out all his recommendations going back to 2013, which have been part of various portfolios. These shares are a combined total of 2144% up, which is also excellent going.
Hopefully we’ll have some active recommendations to report on at the time of our next update but for the moment we understand Prof Arnold taking a cautious approach.
Deep Value Shares – Results Update
5th May 2022
Deep Value Shares is a UK-based share-picking service from a best selling author called Prof. Glen Arnold. It is part of the ADVFN series of newsletters, of which we have previously reviewed Hot Stock Rockets.
We signed up just over a month ago and although there haven’t been any formal recommendations yet, there was one company Prof Arnold was very close to recommending and has provided three detailed articles on.
He has also published no less than six articles on one of the companies in his portfolio – so very thorough analysis.
Helpfully Prof Arnold has also provided details of how his portfolio has been performing. The results have been impressive, with 15 stocks in the portfolio there has been a total return of 690%. which means an average return of 46%.
Out of the 15 stocks, only two were in deficit and those were only by -5% and -3% respectively.
Those results were for 31st March 2022 so will have changed a little since then, but still it’s an impressive return to have made on a UK-centred portfolio given the current market we are in.
Deep Value Shares – New Review
1st April 2022
A while ago we reviewed Hot Stock Rockets, a share-tipping service from the ADVFN website. It performed well during our trial and received a PASSED rating.
ADVFN actually have a range of different newsletters so we thought we would take a look at another one today and that is Deep Value Shares from Professor Glen Arnold.
Prof Arnold is a best-selling author, having written a number of books on investing, the markets and banking. He actually retired from being a tenured professor of finance to concentrate on investing and building his own portfolio, which he felt would be more rewarding. We would tend to agree!
From the value-investing school of thought of those such as Warren Buffett and Benjamin Graham, Professor Arnold also uses his knowledge of the academic literature to try and gain an edge in the markets.
As well as getting to follow along with his portfolio, you can also gain insights into investment concepts and analysis as part of this service.
It’s very affordable at just £6.60 per month so one of the lower-cost options on the marketplace in terms of stock tips.
Unfortunately there are no results on the newsletter page of the ADVFN website and having just signed up we can’t see a running portfolio either, so we don’t have any past history to go off but will just have to run the review from scratch and see how it goes.
As ever we will record results as we go along here so you can see how the service is getting on.
In the meantime you can check out Deep Value Shares for yourself here.
