I run my own investment fund based on the principles of value investing. My fund is inspired by the great value investors Benjamin Graham (the father of value investing) and Warren Buffet (the greatest investor of our time). I take a conservative long-term value approach that minimizes downside risk but provides strong probability of large outsized gains in the future.
Thorough research is my forte. My key passions include investment and personal finance, in particular stocks, commodities and alternate investment ideas. I'm somewhat contrarian in nature and this provides a great wholistic perspective for investment.
I'm originally from Johannesburg, South Africa and currently reside in New York City.
Please check out my blog with my thoughts and articles of interest on value investing at searchofvalue.blogspot.com.
I love hearing from people, so please contact me at risko6@gmail.com if you would like to share or exchange investment ideas.
