This is a PAR EXCELLENCE Article On Value Investing.

Proven by Facts & Figures.

1) Buying Deeply Undervalue Shares Selling at DEEP DISCOUNTS TO NTA
2) Wait For Value To Emerge Someday.

3) These Kinds of Stocks are

a) Sold Down & Neglected. There is a General Lack of confidence and negative news from the Press.

b) Usually illiquid - not recommended by Stock Brokers for their clients

c) Known as "Dead Stocks" which are shunned.

4) To Buy and Hold These Undervalue Stocks You Must Go Against The Sentiment of the Crowd. Again the opinion of friends, remisiers & event "so called" experts.
So it is Not Easy At All. You might be ridiculed & laughed at.

5) BUT AS STUDY AFTER STUDY PROVED. THESE DEEPLY UNDERVALUE STOCKS SELLING AT DEEP DISCOUNT TO NTA OFFER THE HIGHEST REWARD TO SHARE HOLDERS

In KLSE Examples Are

1) Perak Corp at 60 cents
2) SBC Corp at 50 cents
3) KFima at 35 cents
4) Lafarge Cement at 66 cents
5) Muda at 35 cents
6) KPS at 42 cents
7) OKA at 17.5 cents (after split)
8) Yee Lee at 35 cents (after split)
9) Ptaras Jaya at 70 cents
10) UMW at 50 cents (In 1983 Pan El Crisis!)

As you can see from the above examples.
Most have gone up between 500% to 2,000%.
Of the 10 above two penny stocks have become Blue Chips, namely UMW & Lafarge

VALUE INVESTING HAS BEEN VERY REWARDING EVEN IN KLSE, MALAYSIA

Happy Investing,

Noteworthy Note:

The above 10 Shunned Stocks in Those Dark Days Are Now Hotly Pursued By The Market.
As they are NOW HIGHLY POPULAR They Are NO LONGER SELLING AT DEEP DISCOUNTS.

If you should Be Told of FUTURE GREAT PERFORMING STOCKS TODAY Many Will Hardly Recognize Them As Future Blue Chips.

You Will most probably be opposed & laughed at in today's context.

SO ONLY TIME WILL TELL.

AND TIME IS ON THE SIDE OF VALUE INVESTORS.

Calvin invariably said in his comments that he bought many shares at 20% to 30% of their current prices years ago. This is then used to justify his recommendations, repeated thousands of times (why does he still need to do so when he is supposed to have already made 200% to 400% gain from his investment in not too long a period), for others to buy shares still trading at discount to their NTA. It is absurd, laughable and over-simplifying the art of investing as each company's risk and reward profile is vastly different.

Sense maker,

Calvin made how much money is not the focus here. The Subject is About Buying into Shares Selling at Deep Discount with reference to their NTA.

It is been a theory by Ben Graham & Walter Schloss in the US. It worked for them for decades over there in USA.

I have merely put the same theory into test here in Bursa for 7 years. And after 7 years I have shared my conclusions.

YES! Investing is indeed simple if you follow strict rules of time tested principles.

Stripped of all other methods Right at the VERY CORE IS VALUE!

I have written an article called

"THE RELENTLESS PURSUIT OF VALUE" at www.jbhouseforsale.com

It has Been demonstrated over and over again that buying VALUE is far better than buying EARNINGS.
