It amazes me how many prominent value investment professionals ignorantly or willfully confuse a cheap stock as being undervalued and expensive as overvalued. The non cynical me sadly concludes- combo of too many dumb asses and another data point in America’s education crisis.

If you create a diversified portfolio of stocks below their intrinsic value, the only catalyst you need is time. However, very few firms have made the investment and fewer still have the expertise to explain intrinsic value out of sample in time series and across sectors.
