“We prefer what we call a businessman's approach to investing in the stock market. We look at companies through the lens of a businessman. We ask 'what would a wise buyer pay to take over the whole business' instead of trying to focus on what the company is earning in this quarter or next year. If we can buy a company with a significant discount on what we perceive as a company's intrinsic value, we will consider it as an investment. Basically, we take a private equity approach to stock market investments, " (Euro Investor)
