The nice thing about value investing is that you do not have to worry about the company’s products or what they are doing in the future and you can use the data that is easily available to the public to make investment decisions. Whereas with growth investing there is a lot going on internally in a company that could impact an investors decisions or investment that they will never know about such as new products or a new direction for the company. Value investing is nice because it is easy to make a decision once you find out a company is grossly undervalued and that their current market price is far lower than it should be. However the problem I noticed with value investing personally is that it is particularly hard to find undervalued companies that meet Benjamin Graham’s standards. Some methods that help make this easier are to use a stock screener to narrow the field for you or to find someone else who is a value investor and suggests a particular company and to re-evaluate that stock to see if it is currently still undervalued.
