Why does the login come up with a "Validation token required" ?

Weekend brief is a terrific summary of macro economic issues, great range of links to economic, financial and world affairs, humour, music. I love reading it; look forward to it every Sat. Alan is an authentic and trusted source and able to present things in an interesting way. I get a sense of control of things financial from all the knowledge contained in it. Don’t let him retire! I also like Talking Finance covering a range of points of view from different experts. I don’t read the CEO discussions re companies so much: just dip in here and there if something piques my interest

Have been a subscriber for more than 10 years and not disappointed. Realistic research and while you need to pick and choose is across a broad span. While growth stocks have been "shouting" value stocks have been creeping up. Like having individual analysts discuss a stock. Eureka etc a nice bonus

I like the Intelligent Investor as it gives me information of the companies that I am interested to invest in. Also for its educational value. I like written articles rather than oral ones as I can read them at my own pace.

The advice provided has allowed me to achieve a better return than I would have on my own. I live in New Zealand so advice on Superannuation is of no value. Otherwise, I find the reviews, reports and recommendations to suit my style of investing. Not sure that you haven't picked up a template for another review - "how did you find the returns process"?

I remember the old Intelligent Investor, where you knew the people and saw how they suffered a stuff up. These days it is too clinical - people like JG (the last of the old timers) come and go and we are not part off the story of why they actually headed off. We used to have lists of what shares the various analysts invested in, which gave you an idea of top tips from your favoured analyst(s). These days we have a plethora of tips, but which ones are the really top tips - ok JA put out a series of portfolios to survive Covid last year, but are the tips still current? NB in a recent review of the Ethical Fund gave four of his tips - but was that from a fund perspective, or his own portfolio. Today the analysts seem to be making tips for the funds and less so for individual investors. some stocks seem to get lots of updates, but others eg BHP and Reece - are both past their recommended Sell price - but are they actual Sells or will the price guide be adjusted - give us some guidance. Another stock ASX was trading near $90 and the sell price was adjusted from $90 to $100 to $110, so I didn't sell, now it is trading in the high $60's and the sell price has been adjusted back to $100 and current announcements aren't favourable. I preferred the old II where it seemed to be set up to to help individual investors select contrarian stocks which we would hold forever. Whereas now it seems to be a Fund Manager where the decisions are made in house and some of that information is provided for investors. Finally how should I treat the information from Eureka Report - as a recommendation because they are interviewing that particular CEO, or is it just noise to confuse me even further as to which stocks to choose?

Good value. Better than a speculative buy. I appreciate having access to the ethical and growth funds.

Investsmart portfolios are not particularly well performing . They tout low fees for management when compared to other ETF providers offer similar products for much less in terms of fees. They seem to compare their fee levels with funds on platforms rather than ETF’s thus masking their relatively high fees for similar products. The premium is not warranted by the performance.

Feels a very important role as an independent advisory house. Material is written for ease of understanding and gives good business perspective.

The subject matter is "on topic/current" the reports are concise and the analysis is informative. Thanks for your advise - running my SMSF would be much harder without it.

I have been a member for a long time, and still get independant reviews that I value and I always take the commentary on board when making an investment decision
