Value Investing Risk

Value investing attempts to identify companies selling at a discount to their intrinsic value.  Value investing may also involve the purchase of securities that are disfavored in the market or companies whose value the Advisor believes is not fully recognized by the investing public. Value investing is subject to the risk that a company’s intrinsic value may never be fully realized by the market or that a company judged by the Advisor to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced.
