Why value investing?

At Forester, our strategy of value investing selects stocks that we believe are undervalued in the market. At times, the market overreacts to good and bad news, resulting in stock price movements that do not correspond with the company’s long-term fundamentals. This provides potential opportunities for value investors to profit by buying when the price is deflated. We believe investors will benefit over the long-term by adding value investing to their portfolio.
