24/7 Wall Street Demonstrates the Value of TickerMine
Hello everyone.
Some times people ask us why primary point of sale data is important. We believe that point of sale data is very revealing about product and company trends. Apparently the good folks over at 24/7 Wall St. agree.
In a herculean piece of work they called about 30 gaming stores and asked questions about Take Two’s new game, Grand Theft Auto IV. Good idea. What we find interesting is that they don’t provide the raw data behind their work, TickerMine does. They also will not do this survey next month to see how GTA IV is tracking, TickerMine will. They also will not tell you what the next big game will be, TickerMine does.
The purspose of this post is to try and show examples of other established information provides attempting to provide point of sale data to investors. They know it is important. They cannot produce it consistently and meaningfully across entire industries and they cannot maintain the research over time. The efforts of writers like the group at 24/7 are positive. They highlight the insight and value that point of sale data offers. TickerMine brings reliability, scaleability and deep meaning to a large univers of stocks and industries that investors can use to get dramatic informational advantages.
