Buffett is brilliant, but some of his fans take it too far and miss great investments in the process.

Although Inside Value isn't quite ready to switch our valuation methodology to account for the company's wireless acquisition, our valuation was sufficiently out of date to justify a post-earnings bump.

The auto insurer keeps posting results that help back up Inside Value's confidence in the company, including an improvement in earned premiums.

Although the strip-mall REIT's revenue and funds from operation looked strong in the fourth quarter, Inside Value wants to see those improvements flow through on a per-share basis.

The discount brokerage's latest earnings put Inside Value in the odd position of cheering on a practice we Fools usually advise against.

Although year-over-year earnings declined, Goldman Sachs keeps earning solid returns on its equity -- so Inside Value is bumping up its guidance.

Lower revenue pushed the stock down, but Inside Value is excited to see the company's core earnings start to shine through.

Loan growth didn't quite keep pace with deposits, but the bank is performing well enough that Inside Value is bumping up our valuation by a buck.
