My name is Taiwo Megbope and I am a Co-Founder of the Investor Hangout. I am eager to share with you in this forum, ideas on how to invest profitably in the Nigerian Capital Market. I am also very excited to share with you what the Investor Hangout has to offer!
The development journey has been an interesting one. As a result, some of those experiences will find their way into our published content.
“… we share ideas on how to invest profitably in the Nigerian Capital Market …”
Let me start by telling you why we created the Investor Hangout, what you will see in our posts, and our overall experience of launching the Hangout.
Why we started this blog
We developed many of the features on the Investor Hangout to ease investors’ research and analysis experience. These features have been available since 2018, and we thought these features would sell themselves. It took us a while to learn an important lesson. You could bake the best pie, and no one would know how delicious that pie tasted if no one knew about the pie.
We created this blog to serve as an amplifier. There is a ton of impressive stuff in the Investor Hangout that people need to know about. We, therefore, will post a lot of “how-to” content backed up by data from the Investor Hangout.
What you will see in our posts.
The Investor Hangout Blog will publish content that belongs to three major categories. These will include:
- Instructional Posts
- Insightful Posts
- Market Commentaries.
Instructional Posts
Based on the amount of screen time, research and experiences gained over the course of our careers in investing and analytics development, we will put on our instructor hats on this blog. We will give our opinions on what has worked for us in our time spent developing solutions in the Nigerian Capital Market space.
“… you will learn how to become a better investor …”
With these posts, you will hear our opinions on “what to” and “what not to” do to become a better self-directed or institutional investor.
Some lined up topics include:
- A Beginner’s Guide to Investing in Nigerian Stocks
- What are the differences between stock price and fair value?
- Growth investing models for the Nigerian stock market
- What is a Robo advisor and does it work on Nigerian markets?
- Capital Appreciation or Income Investing–Which is right for me?
- A top-down investing strategy for the Nigerian Stock Exchange
- Guide to becoming a pro-investor –a multi-part series.
Insightful Posts
Here, we will share revelations based on recently published market and financial data about securities listed on the Nigerian Capital Markets. We have built models that run in real-time. We will, therefore, publish power-packed and thought-provoking posts with these models. One of such will be our trailblazing Stock Anatomy, which will enlighten readers on the true value of NSE listed stocks. The Stock Anatomy post will include details such as the featured company’s performance relative to its industry with various comparative metrics. You can head over to this post, top Nigeria stocks with great quality of earnings, to get going.
Market Commentaries
We will base our market commentaries on current events in the capital markets but from a data and analytics perspective. The key reason we created the Investor Hangout was to reduce the amount of subjective decision making about investing in the Nigerian stock market. Hence, this segment of our posts will keep you posted on what happened in the week just ended and what you could see happen in the week ahead – from a data perspective.
“… we created the Investor Hangout to improve objective decision making in the Nigerian stock market …”
It is our aim, at the Investor Hangout, to create useful and engaging content that will take you from where you are in your investing journey to a point that’s more profitable and more efficient. We have thought this through and are optimistic it will be worth your while.
