There are different versions of value investing that you can come across. Where there are people that consider value investing as an investment that benefits buying of stocks which are currently available at a low price to book ratio and shall give higher yields, there are others that determine value investment as buying of stocks that have low P/E ratio.

Moreover, it is also found that in some conditions value investment is known to have more effect on the balance sheet as compared to income statement. There are different factors of Value Investing that you must understand to know more about it.

Very often you may come across value investors who are older investors; this is because the patience for the investors grows with the age. It is often found that sometimes value investors are known to invest in industries that look boring, because that's where they consider the value is. It is often found that value investors do not invest on tech stocks, as they do not always make profits from it.

Investing in the stock market is considered as an inefficient investment. The investors that look for value investing are not known to opt for efficient market theory. It is often found that shares are frequently traded hands at prices, which is above and below the intrinsic value of the stocks. Likewise, the difference between the market value of the share and the intrinsic value of the share is enough to allow profitable investments for the value investors.

Moreover, value investors are also known to invest on business that has shown consistency over time in the ability to increase the book value and return on capital. An ideal investment is the one that shows growing rate of book value per share and also increasing return on investment capital over a period of time. It is important to invest on a venture that is consistent.

Finding the right price for the shares is definitely an essential factor of value investing. Where there are investors that look to follow particular procedures to obtain the value of the share, there are other investors that look for price which is available at 25% discount as compared to its market price. You may also come across other investors that go through the past history of the company.

Investments that are considered as best are known to have a margin of safety. There are different factors that affect the value of margin of safety; it includes firm's working capital, past earnings, assets in lands, goodwill, either having all of them or some of the above. The margin of safety is evaluated in the difference between the quoted price and the intrinsic value of the shares or business.

The margin of safety is essential as it helps to get rid of all the investor's miscalculation. Thus, it is important to keep the margin of safety wide enough to ensure there is enough security. Value Investment is considered as purchasing a stock for less than its evaluated value, the fact itself separates value investing from other type of investment medium.
