Steven Zhang
I am a value investor who achieved over 33% average annual return over the past 12 years. Since 2021 value investing became my full-time job. I was a serial entrepreneur before I became a full-time investor. I also own a variety of private businesses, including the an online education company, and a video game studio, and a law firm that focuses on the private equity sector.
About Me
Investment Philosophy
I only invest in publicly listed companies who fit those three standards:
1. The company has a high margin of safety, which means, the company's intrinsic value is much higher(usually at least 3 times) than its price when valued strictly using the discounted free cash flow method.
2. The company has high growth potential.
3. The company's management has high business moral standard.
