The CSA Research Lab

Superinvestors like Warren Buffett, Benjamin Graham, Joel Greenblatt, and Mario Gabelli have been known to host private networks, get-togethers, and “idea dinners” where they discuss stock picks and share business insights. To become a better thinker, you need intelligent debates, feedbacks and sounding boards. CSA Institute is a place for you to join a network of savvy investors and Certified Security Analysts, so we can share, critique, and analyze the ideas from each member and conduct collaborative research on companies.

The CSA charter will be selectively awarded to outstanding members of our institute which is dedicated to Graham-Buffett investing and practical stock picking. A write-up of at least 500 words about the single best investment idea of yours is required to become a member of the CSA Research Lab. You also need to post at least TWO ideas per year to maintain your membership. Hedge fund managers and sponsors of CSA Institute may decide to seed the brightest new stars emerging here. Members who fail to contribute quality ideas and thoughtful comments every year will be weeded out.
