ShareClarity is an independent organisation. They have struck a deal with Direct Broking but have also offered the service to NZSA members previously.
Listen to a podcast interviewing the founder of ShareClarity, Daniel Kieser.

Capital intensives like retirement are not going to score well in an algorithmic DCF valuer.
Exclusivey DCF valuations, nothing in retirement fares wells.
Even my beloved ARV doesn't.
They are anything but garbage, they paint no biased qualitative analysis, only numbers.
Now I understand why it feels so lonely on my perfectly good Shareclarity thread (https://www.sharetrader.co.nz/showth...g-ShareClarity) ... the OCA thead seems to be the place to be to discuss them!
From my perspective - I agree that shareclarity delivers just numbers ... question is just whether these numbers add value.
In many cases I fail to see a sensible correlation between their numbers and any realistic valuation of a company. Not the fault of the DCF method, but in my view either inexperienced people (or more likely bots) feeding the algorithms ... They say: garbage in - garbage out.
... and now - lets go to the thread and continue the ciscussion - shall we?

Really sorry for mentioning shareclarity .....but I had just got their new cool app and had to play with it and OCA came up.
Their DCF valuations a bit like your oft mentioned spreadsheets BP?
Suppose if shareclarity had said OCA was 17% undervalued (on their value gap basis) the comments, if any, would be have been different eh. More good raw material for the LSE guys
Shareclarity can’t be too bad ....their DCF value for thl is $3.81 which is 1 cent more than my optimistic scenario. Must use the same input assumptions
Can’t be right ....rubbish in rubbish out ....load of crap.
But most tend to disregard DCF valuations anyway and do the cheats way and use PE ratios and even such things ...or even worse still that much vaunted Graham Formula (when it suits)
:lol: :lol:
DCF is nothing but a model using a whole bunch of assumptions. If really inexperienced analysts make a bunch of wrong calls on those assumptions you have the classic situation of any model that represents garbage in and garbage out.
I actually find it irksome that on the Direct broking website the share clarity dcf valuation appears with a reference to the discount to present price or a premium. This gives share clarity vastly more credibility than they deserve in my opinion and implies that their dcf is a very valid reference point. Nothing could be further from the truth in my opinion.
Nice to see you back Maverick. Don't let some of the bull that some people talk on here put you off your game mate.

those bollingers are turning down will they confirm the fundamental case
