| HOW
THE MANAGER INVESTS |
| WHAT
IS YOUR INVESTING STRATEGY? (GROWTH, VALUE, TECHNICAL ANALYSIS, ETC.) |
|
answer --> |
Certainly not Technical Analysis.
Growth and Value really are the same thing as value is determined by the growth of future earning. I like comanies with a track record (at least 10yrs), that are trading at sinficantly below than their Intrinsic Value.
|
| HOW
DO YOU SELECT NEW COMPANIES FOR YOUR FUNDS? |
|
answer --> |
I tend to use what I call indicated yield, that is the Return on Equity (ROE) for the last 5 years divided by (/) price to book.
Eg ROE = 17.5%
Price to Book = 2.5
Indicated Yield = 7%
If the indicated yield and future earnings prostects look good, I invest. I also do some quick DCF (discounted cashflow) analysis
|
| HOW
DO YOU DECIDE TO REMOVE A STOCK FROM YOUR FUNDS? |
|
answer --> |
This is the hard part, if the fundamentals of the comapny have changed for the worse, or I find a beter company to replace it, I sell.
