It's been my own experience that the more effort is needed to understand if an investment at a given price is basically amazing or dreadful, the better it is to avoid it completely.

Personally, I don't think any of this information is needed to judge Unite Group at 500p, LTV 27%, NAV 955p, ongoing buyback, though I accept you feel that way.

If the price was 800-900p, then this sort of thing you are interested in could be a good idea to judge if the next stop would be 600p or 1100p.

But I wouldn't buy this stock at 900p, either way. And if it took *that* much work to understand, I'd just move on to something else.

I think it's better to look for things that are likely worth 700-1100p, on sale for 500p, and let the market figure out for itself what it wants to pay.

Ideally, something where just weeks ago the market actually was paying 700p+ for it, quite cheerfully, and where there isn't really much new information to change things since then.

I didn't call you out for that and I feel you've accidentally mischaracterised what I wrote.

It's OK to comment on hunches or fears that don't have evidence.

It's OK to make statements on subjects you're not well informed about.

I suggested it might not be helpful to keep doing it again and again and again, within a single post many times, *and* without any evidence at all supporting it.

Repetition is extremely dangerous to the human mind; if you see something repeated to you many times, you may pick up the belief subconsciously without even realising how it got on board.

I feel it's not conducive to a good healthy discussion, that's all.
