The margin of safety

Article Abstract:

Investors should ensure that the stocks that they buy are worth what they pay for them and more. It is not easy to calculate the value of a stock, but one way is the extent to which profit is generated from capital, and to which cash can be generated rather than accounting profits. Investors should only buy stocks when prices are acceptable, and if they are not, then investors should refrain from buying. One comapny following the principles set out by Benjamin Graham seeks stocks that offer value, whatever sector they come from.
