Deep thinking portfolio maker.

There are hundreds of investment blogs out there. I've read a lot of them. I have to put Scott's Investments at the top of the list because I can follow what he has to say. I like the way he builds a portfolio and tracks it. He is a logical thinker without all the extra fluff I see in a lot of blogs. If you want to learn how to build a portfolio that might earn 20% in a year, please consider following Scott's Investments. He's done it already so you don't have to invent the wheel.

Simply the best free website I've found yet for my interests

Have been following Scott's Investments for many months now and should have written this long ago. I use ETFs almost exclusiovely now, having begun with them several years ago, and Scott's approach to ETF investing makes more sense to me than most anyone else's. Although I had found the website, ETFreplay, before finding this site, I didn't really appreciate its value until I found Scott's website. So I began tracking his ETF portfolio using ETFreplay and have now tweaked it a tad here and there to where his basic approach has become my core approach. He puts forth many other valuable reports about the markets, too, but his stuff on ETFs is what I most depend on. Scott may not be a professional investor (I don't know, perhaps he is) but he makes more sense than most professionals out there, and without any hype. And, best of all, it's all free! Donations are accepted though, and I should have done that months ago, too. bob.m

Valuable free insights of ETF and stock strategies

Although the content has been diluted lately with "re posts" of third parties, the authentic content is highly valuable... and free!

I like the variety and soundness of the strategies explained and tracked on this site.

Worth following!

No agenda, just plain talk about quantitative trading...

Scott's Investments is a refreshingly on-point blog about a multitude of trading strategies and investment ideas centered around some of the broader topics covered in Mebane Faber's book, "The Ivy Portfolio".

For too long quantitative trading has been viewed as being the sole property of academics with high speed computers, a subject divorced from mainstream investing, enjoying no support from industry insiders and investors alike. Faber's book, and Scott Oyen's passion for sharing research on this subject, has brought this former esoteric investment style into the public realm of mainstream investing, aided by the advent of ETFs as the perfect vehicle for exploiting quantitative trading ideas. This blog is important enough to me that I find something new in it everyday, an article or one of a multitude of portfolios that is tracked, where I come away having learned something that I can use, as opposed to useless buy and sell recommendations from faceless brokerages or blather about Warren Buffett's past investment victories.

I highly recommend that if one is serious about no-nonsense trading research on topics such as momentum and relative strength, and how to stay in harmony with what the market is saying, look no further than Scott's Investments and the myriad of related information that Scott tirelessly provides, all owing to his passion for free and open sharing of cutting edge investing ideas for the professional and non-professional investor alike.

He provides good information and also shows you the spreadsheets used to track his plans. Back testing has also been provided on several of the strategies. All in all, this is a great place to look for an investing strategy that fits your style of investing.;l

Best of Breed

I found "Scott's" a few months ago and loved it writing a testimonial to that effect. After half a year I am more impressed than ever. Love your etf advice most of all. And for what it's worth yours is the website I visit first and often........truly "Best of Breed."

And please believe me when I say I have no profit or axe to grind when I write this review. It is just the honest opinion of a woman who has seen pretty much all. Thank you, Scott for all you do.

P.S. Please understand if I do not wish to be contacted. But you know you may quote me using my first name only. I have had identity theft and am a little gun shy nowadays.

Long time reader

Fine if you don't mind being referred to Adam Hewison every other day. What puzzles me is I have asked "Scott" several questions and have never received a response. The last question I asked him is why he never answers a question. No answer

ivaluable plus

Last summer I discovered this blog and found the individual country stocks plan very very helpful to recover from a problem trusting an unwise financial advisor.

This year the individual country stocks were interesting, but not useful - on the other hand it sent me to THE IVY PORTFOLIO by Faber and I'm hoping that the "basic portfolio" will be simple and useful. My only problem is that I wouldn't want this site to disappear or to cost money i f I write this positive review.But I am grateful to Scott for setting this up and bringing these ideas to me.
