What We Look for When Selling a Business
We will typically sell a company’s stock when our research tells us that its valuation has grown so high that the expected return falls below alternatives, and is well above long-term historical average multiples. Other factors we look for:
- Economics of the business have deteriorated
- Security is not performing as we originally believed it would
- Margin of safety is the difference between the intrinsic value of a stock and its market price
