Value Investing

Bargain Hunter
A bargain hunter can either be a consumer highly sensitive to prices or an investor seeking undervalued stocks with the hope for price appreciation.
Bottom Fisher
An investor who seeks to purchase securities, commodities, or other assets that are at their lowest market prices and are expected to rise in value.
Capitulation
Capitulation is the terminal stage of a market collapse, characterized by investors giving up hope and taking losses, causing prices to bottom out. This typically stirs bullish sentiment as it creates opportunities for value investing and marks a technical sign that downside risk is being replaced by upside potential. Market bottoms are confirmable only in hindsight, which introduces an element of speculation.
Graham and Dodd Method of Investing
The Graham and Dodd Method, also known as value investing, is an investment approach outlined by Benjamin Graham and David Dodd in their landmark book 'Security Analysis,' initially published in the 1930s. This method advocates for buying undervalued stocks based on thorough fundamental analysis, with the expectation that these stocks will eventually appreciate to their true intrinsic value in the marketplace.
Price/Book Ratio
The Price/Book Ratio is a financial metric used to evaluate if a stock is undervalued or overvalued by comparing the stock's market price to its book value per share.
Value Investing
