Essence Of Intrinsic Value Investing
- Value investing is an opportunity for investors to benefit from the mispricing opportunities (buy low), to only sell at a later stage where the valuations revert to the companies’ intrinsic value (sell high).
- An important aspect of intrinsic value investing is to keep an appropriate “MARGIN OF SAFETY”which significantly improves the risk-reward ratio associated with investing in a business.
