Hi everyone! 👋
I'm a self-taught investor who's always been better with numbers than with business or marketing. I have dyslexia and ADHD, and I've always found it easier to understand complicated information when it's presented visually.
I originally built Wolford Research entirely for myself because I wanted to analyze companies in a way that actually made sense to my brain. Instead of staring at endless spreadsheets and financial ratios, I wanted to SEE the financial health of a business, understand its history, and explore what different valuations might mean.
Over time, I started developing my own mathematical research methods, including things like Hidden P/E, Pressure Sensitivity, the Wolford Fundamental Factor, and other experimental financial indicators. I also built historical charts, financial-strength evaluations, valuation models, and portfolio research tools.
I genuinely believe that if you're already risking your own money investing, you shouldn't have to spend even more money just to research where you're putting it.
I'm taking more of a Wikipedia-style approach. The website is intended to remain free forever, supported entirely through optional donations from anyone who finds it useful.
I'm not much of a businessman. I just really enjoy building this stuff.
A little heads-up, though!
The website literally went live less than 24 hours ago, so it's still very much a work in progress.
I have a few hundred gigabytes of financial and market history that I'm working on organizing and importing myself. That's part of how I'm keeping costs low, but it also means some companies currently have incomplete financial histories or unavailable features.
I'm actively expanding the data coverage, improving the tools, fixing bugs, and working on new research methods. I plan to keep improving the site regularly.
I think it'll be especially useful for people who enjoy fundamental analysis, value investing, medium- to long-term investing, or beginners who want to understand what they're actually buying. It's not really designed to be a rapid-fire day-trading signal service.
What I'd really love is your feedback.
Try researching Apple or another company you're interested in. Play around with the charts, financial-strength breakdowns, and valuation tools.
If something looks wrong, a calculation seems questionable, a feature is confusing, or you have a cool idea, please tell me! I'm genuinely interested in criticism and suggestions.
I have a ton of ideas for future features and original mathematical indicators, and I'd love to hear what other investors would actually find useful.
Even if you only spend two minutes exploring it, I'd genuinely appreciate it. Knowing that someone else might find a tool I originally built for myself useful would mean a lot.
Thanks for checking it out, and feel free to ask me anything!
