Stocks are simple. All you do is buy shares in a great business for less than the business is intrinsically worth, with management of the highest integrity and ability. Then you own those shares forever. I will tell you how to become rich. Close the doors. Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful.

Current Actual PE = Market Cap – NCAV = (1886 – 875) / 283 = 3.5


Intrinsic Value Estimation:

= 2731 – 1802 – 54 + 12 * 137 * 2

= 875 + 3288 = 4163 m


(2) NCAV + 5 YEAR AVG PE-2005

= 875 + 283 * 12 = 4271 m



Divided payout: Very good record

Corporate governance: as David webb invested in this stock, it should be fine

Business prospect: TBD

Company buyback – good signal

My Approach

Approach: Discover great company with substantially under value

Criteria for great company:
1. ROE>15%, EPS growth>15% in last 3-5 years
2. Sound balance sheet

3. Future analysis:
can be performance be sustained in the feature 3, 5 and 10 years?
- can the growth rate, ROE be sustained

4. Under value

Market value < 2/3 NCAV, the little the better.
