A "Value" Business.

[zacb]

I have been in an Austrian Value investing mindset for a bit, and I am just thinking about how I can apply a "value " investing approach to business, along with the view that government interference create malinvestment, which leads to under invested sectors. Should I try to find under invested sectors, and invest in them? Or should I invest in the malinvestments? Also, in terms of malinvestment, how does government regulation create undervalued situations in government regulated industries? Does it lead to inefficiencies which leads to business opportunities? And should you invest in them? Or should you invest in industries that suffer dues to government boondoggles? So how does the Austrian value paradigm apply to inefficiency in regulated fields?

A good book on the subject of value investing is Buffetology, nominally written by Mary Buffet. However, in such a rigged and collapsing market I doubt that any strategy can be guaranteed to work. Your best bet is probably shorting the stocks of female-run companies, as they have a proven ability to lose money at a faster rate than the regime gives it to them.

Hmmm

Hewlett Packard has had female execs - Carly Fiorella and middle managers as well - and generally not done well

But reluctantly I have to admit EBay under my old Princeton classmate Meg Whitman has done OK. She didn't start it, but she didn't screw it up either.

No?

Like recovering electronic goods stolen from airline passengers by Thieves & Sexual Assailants?

Or should I invest in the malinvestments?

Can you stay "invested" longer than govt regs keep the malinvestment going?
E.g., can you hold on to your gold coins until the govt makes it legal to own them again?

The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.
