Where I get my investment ideas from

Back in October 2013 I got interested in the stock market because Twitter (TWTR) was going IPO (Initial Public Offering). Also, with interest rates on savings accounts near zero and central banks zero interest rate policy (ZIRP), only place to get any decent return on my cash is to invest in the stock market. Since then, I have bought shares in a number of companies but not Twitter. In that time I lost 60% of my investments or about $2,000. To me this is the cost of learning to identify undervalued assets.
