Valuation & Buy Levels 29/03/2025

The S&P 500 has officially reversed into a downtrend. For long-term investors, this isn’t a reason to panic—it’s an opportunity. Now is the time to be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful. This mindset is what separates those who outperform the market from those who follow the herd.

High-quality stocks tend to outperform the S&P 500 in bull markets, but they are equally volatile when sentiment shifts. That’s a good thing—because it allows us to buy great companies at discounted prices. And history shows that these businesses eventually recover and continue their long-term growth path.

My Portfolio Strategy: Buy Quality, Stay Patient

I’ve navigated multiple bear markets and corrections, and each time, my portfolio has emerged stronger. My approach is simple:
✅ Buy high-quality stocks whenever they are undervalued.
✅ Hold for the long term, allowing them to compound wealth over time.

To execute this strategy effectively, you need to determine:
1️⃣ Is this a high-quality business?
2️⃣ Is it trading at an attractive valuation?

3 Key Reasons to Understand Stock Valuation

📉 Avoid Overpaying – Knowing a stock’s intrinsic value helps you avoid buying at inflated prices, protecting your portfolio from losses when hype fades.

📈 Maximize Returns – Investing in undervalued stocks increases your potential upside as the market eventually corrects mispricings.

🛡 Invest with Confidence – A strong understanding of valuation lets you focus on businesses with solid fundamentals, so you can hold them long-term without second-guessing.
