Todd Sullivan's - ValuePlays

Successful Investing does not have to be Difficult

Hello, I'm Todd Sullivan, a Massachusetts based value investor. I look for companies whose current valuation is at a discount to their true value.

When I purchase a stock, my typical holding period is several years. I consider buying a stock purchasing a piece of a business. I am confident once I make a decision to buy that eventually the market as a whole will recognize the true value of the business and value it accordingly. It may take 1 month, 6 months or a year, but if I buy it at enough of a discount to its true value my results will be (and have been) superior to the market as a whole.

Of all the disparate investing disciplines, value investing has stood the test of time. The great investors of have all been value investors. Warren Buffett, Ben Graham, Bill Ruane (Sequoia Fund), Bill Miller, Martin Whittman and Wally Weitz, all have consistently outperformed the market for decades by using various forms of value investing.
My newsletter features periodic updates of all the holdings in the ValuePlays portfolio along with general market and strategic commentary. All subscribers receive email access to me and also receive email trade alerts so they are immediately notified of any transactions.

The ValuePlays blog was started as a way to simplify what is often an overly complicated process: buying stocks in quality companies at good prices and holding them. It sounds easy but with all the "noise" in the investment world today, sometimes the hardest thing to do is nothing and that is often the best thing to do.

Currently I am a contributing writer to Seeking Alpha, Vinvesting.com, The Stockmasters, StraightStocks.com and Value Investing News. My commentary and analysis has been seen in The Wall St. Journal Online, The NY Times Online (Deal Book), Forbes Online, Yahoo Finance, Google Finance, TheStreet.com, Reuters, 24/7 Wall St., Minyanville and Topix.net.
