My friend Miguel is arranging a conference in Chicago for value investors. I highly recommend that anyone who lives in the Chicago area or can travel goes to the event. There are going to be two great speakers there. Plus Miguel is one of the nicest people you meet and also is a great contact to have. In short you will get some great valuable advice and it will be an excellent event for networking.
I get no compensation for this post, I am posting this because I think readers will benefit and as a favor for my friend Miguel.
Below are additional details from Miguel:
You are invited to our first Chicago Value Investor meet-up of 2011 taking place in 2 weeks. (This is not an event for amateurs.)

There is no fee to attend, but I will say the bar is probably limited to 150-200 people.
Special guests.
1. Michelle Leder – Author of Footnoted and founder of Footnoted.org which is now a part of Morningstar.com

2. Jeremy Page – Accountant & Founder of Envision Financials.

Jeremy might bring several of his team members to the meeting and is very interested in learning what it takes to be a good analyst.
