In depth comparison

Letters and Reviews

lettersandreviews.blogspot.com

Free, personal curation site that aggregates **fund manager letters**, tickers mentioned in those letters, and **quarterly 13F** filer lists the author follows. Each quarter page links to original letters and maps tickers to quick‑reference pages; some 13F pages embed holdings tables and activity (new/increased/decreased/sold) for many managers. Also includes a small **Podcasts** list. No accounts, alerts, exports, or API-think link‑hub for primary sources rather than a data platform.

Quarterly **13‑F pages** the author reads, with many entries including holdings tables and position‑change flags (e.g., NEW / Sold Out / % of portfolio).
Lightweight **About** page clarifies the goal: stock‑idea discovery from letters; author shares links and invites tips via @_iinvested.
A small **Podcasts** page curating investing/finance episodes the author plans to re‑listen to.

TIKR

Editor’s pick Hands-on review

Global equity research terminal and screener focused on fundamental analysis. Free plan provides US-only coverage with 3Y/4Q history, 1Y of analyst estimates and 90 days of transcripts, while Plus unlocks global data on 100,000+ stocks across 92 countries and 136 exchanges with 10Y/12Q history and 2Y of estimates; Pro extends to 20Y*/40Q financial history, 4Y of estimates, segment-level financials, global transcript history and Excel exports. Premium plans are paid subscriptions (monthly or discounted annual) backed by a 14‑day money‑back guarantee rather than a free trial. The browser‑based TIKR Terminal has no dedicated mobile app or public API/Excel plug‑in, focuses exclusively on common equities (no preferreds or bonds) and, per the help center, currently does not provide a short‑interest dataset.
