The performance information for the Value Investment Fund (the Club) has been presented as of a particular date. This site's facilitator is providing the standard WARNING about investing. The above chart's information will not reflect subsequent changes with factors that will impact the performance of the Value Investment Fund (review the market wide decline experienced in calendar year 2022). Accordingly, the performance metrics on this website should not be considered an indication of likely or possible future returns. With that said, this is also true of all other forms of investing and indices. The absolute best tool for any investor is RISK REDUCTION as explained in the FIRST principle of value investing.

Furthermore, investing is risky and as such, it is encouraged that visitors/members limit their respective capital outlays to amounts they can comfortably afford to lose or experience reductions in value.

Value Investing is a systematic process of buying low and selling high based on risk reduction, intrinsic value, financial analysis and patience. THIS IS NOT A GET RICH QUICK SCHEME; it requires thoughtful evaluation from participants.
