Wonderful Companies at Wonderful Prices?
A reminder for the unemotional, patient investor that “fair prices” for high-quality businesses can occasionally become “wonderful prices”
Our International Growth strategy seeks to achieve long-term growth by building a concentrated portfolio of competitively advantaged international businesses with sustainable, above-average earnings growth.
We believe that consistent earnings growth is the primary driver of intrinsic value and long-term stock appreciation. We seek to invest in companies with a durable earnings profile driven by a sustainable competitive advantage, financial strength, sound ESG practices, proven management teams, and powerful products/services. By thinking and investing like a business owner and taking a long-term investment approach, we believe we can preserve capital and provide stability across market cycles.
