What is Value Investing?

A strategy of investing in stocks that trade at less than their intrinsic value
Price to Earnings

Enterprise Value / Sales

Price to Book

ROE

Dividend Yield

ROCE

Enterprise Value / EBITDA

Cash Flows

PEG

FCF / Sales

Business models / Fundamentals, Management, Market Sentiments

The fund looks to invest in fundamentally strong companies that the fund manager believes
are trading at less than their assessed values thus offering higher upside potential

elements while picking stocks
