Investment Strategy

ValueWorks LLC employs a value investing philosophy, focusing on purchasing high-quality assets at prices below their intrinsic value. The firm conducts extensive, independent research and expert asset appraisals, aiming to buy assets at a significant discount—typically seeking to pay $0.50 to $0.75 for $1.00 worth of assets. Their approach is contrarian and often goes against prevailing market sentiment, relying on disciplined decision-making and risk management regardless of market conditions.
