Long time NAIC member

I just finished the book and was struck on how close the the Rule #1 method is to the NAIC way of screening stocks. The main difference I see is the NAIC suggests you hold a stock for 5 years looking for 15% grown where Phil trades in and on on the technical indicatrs. Is anyone framiliar with the two approaches?

Red face Hi Everyone

I am totally new to Rule1 Investing. I only have a small amount to invest in my Roth IRA account at the moment, but I'm gonna give it a shot anyway.

I feel Rule One Investment Community would be VERY helpful -- I'm so glad I found this. Hopefully, I can contribute and help others too as I grow to become more knowledgeable in Rule1 Investing.

Welcome! I'm not familiar with NAIC, but maybe someone else is! Looks like NAIC is a bit slower, because 15% in 5 years is about 3% a year!

What is NAIC? I Googled it but haven't been able to find out exactly what it is.

Thanks,

National Association of Investors Corp (NAIC) formerly the Nat'l Assoc of Investment Clubs. They screen for stocks that grow at a 15% per year doubling in 5 years. There is some very good information on the site and in their monthly magazine

Hello and welcome to the forums :) Luckily you are able to start with an amount even smaller than that -- zero! Read all that you can get your hands on, get a basic understanding of the Rule One philosophy and then jump into one of our Revolving Competitions to test your knowledge!

Don't ever hesitate to ask any questions you have along the way. Thats exactly why we are here :) See you on the boards!

Cool Hi Everyone

Bought the book, found a stock and made 6% in two weeks. Cool. I'll spend some time learning about the community.
Greetings from Pacific NW.
