Our name means a lot to us.  We believe that value investing works because controlling quality assets at a discount to what they are worth earns attractive returns over time.  This principle is the core of each investment decision we make. 

Every security is a financial instrument that represents some type of claim against assets.  It is the work of every value investor to understand what those assets are, what they are worth, and what price they are paying to control them when they buy a security.

We are value investors because we have conviction in the underlying logic of the approach.  We have also had the benefit of testing this discipline through some extraordinary – and extraordinarily different – market periods. 

Value investing is not always easy, and is not always in fashion.  It is a straightforward proposition but it requires both a high level of expertise and steadfast discipline to use it adeptly in all sorts of economic and market climates.    

At ValueWorks we have deployed this approach through periods of huge investor enthusiasm and euphoria, through periods of financial crisis and panic, and even through some moments of calm and investor ennui.  Through it all, we have stayed with this discipline, and draw the simple conclusion that is in our name.
