Finding Your Way Around the New Value Line Interface

Value Line updated the interface recently. One of the biggest changes is that the data from the Investment Survey has been broken up and scattered across the site. If you want to get a report on company, here’s how. When you first connect to Value Line, you see a screen like this:

Value Line--dashboard

To find a company, use the search box in the top right:

Value Line--search

Once you’ve found the company page, you’ll see all sorts of interactive content. If you want to the familiar PDF company reports  from the Value Line Investment Survey, you’ll find them over on the right where it says “PDF Reports.”

Value Line--company data and reports

Our subscription is limited to just some of the content on the site. If you go to the “Dashboard” from the top level navigation, you can go to the “Quick Links” box on the right side to get to other portions of the content we have access to. In this screenshot of that Quick Links box, I’ve highlighted in green the content we have access to and in pink what we don’t have access to:

Those portions are:

  • VLIS Current Issue
  • Summary & Index
  • Selection & Opinion
  • SMC Summary & Index
  • VLIS Rank Changes
  • Supplementary Reports

If  you want to delve deeper into what’s changed and how to find stuff in the new platform, here are some useful links:
