We started the Value Investing portfolio three years ago for Malaysia-listed companies on Bursa, with the aim of helping the man in the street make better investing decisions. Investing in equities is, by far, still one of the best means of building wealth over the longer term. We want to prove that you can be your own fund manager, successfully and with minimal costs.
SINGAPORE (Dec 18): Avid followers of this column would recall I talked about starting a portfolio of global stocks several weeks back. I’m pleased to say that it’s coming close to fruition.
This week, I’m going to broadly outline our stock selection methodology. Next week, I will unveil my global portfolio. I have to say, this exercise has given us some interesting names, some that quite frankly I’ve never heard of, some I had expected and yet others that I thought were good options but ultimately failed to meet our -value-investing criteria.
