Cluster Group Analysis I for TTA, TOS, and ST_Silver-age_Comic-books_Part 1

Cluster Group Analysis I for TTA, TOS, and ST_Silver-age_Comic-books

This is a special blog post that documents approaches allowing me to look across multiple runs. If you have a select group to look at, I thought it would require all data to be recast into a big group and apply the same approaches I have written about previously.  Below are the results from this “cluster” analysis.

Table 1A. Bias Scores* across the run of the three groups that were from High (1763) to the 50% percentile point (-3.18)

(*reference Read Me First Blog for a discussion of the B Score.)

Comments on Table 1A and 1B.

            There are some clear conclusions looking at the grouped data bias scores. First the Antman issue TTA 27 enjoys the highest bias by the Insiders. Is that a reflection of the upcoming movie (s) with that character? I adjusted the Bias scores and tabulated that as the BC Score (Bias combined score); even that measure gives TTA 27 the edge of 2 to 1 over the first Ironman TOS 39. I think that the bias is due to a combination of the TTA 27 being lesser known vs. TOS 39 and now with the wave of movies the Insiders are jumping into the overlooked or under priced books. As you around the web, the talk is finding the next “thing” with an “I will grab anything that is cheap and could blow up approach.” That is one way but with that you have to be awake at all times to the new thing. I believe that everyone sees the obvious and the market becomes efficient over time.  I am looking at a bigger scale in this report and believe we can use this data that is not seen by many as a method to focus our investments. By the way I am very deliberate in streamlining my data analysis. I think you the readers’ need to quietly think about the depth of the numerical measurements of the investment community as I document and present those opinions here.  Feel free to find other interpretations of this data!
