The search for value is the application of quantitative criteria on a broad universe of stocks in order to close-in on a few companies. With this manageable list of potential value stocks, individuals can then focus their time and energy to understand the business of these companies. Using a consistent framework of financial and business analysis, participants learn to invest in stocks as an owner rather than a speculator.
