The Intrinsic Value Wealth Report is an investment newsletter. The tagline for the Intrinsic Value Wealth Report is: Helping Enterprises Create Value. Helping Investors Recognize Value To Build Wealth (SM). A key component of the Intrinsic Value Wealth Report is the Cassandra Model. The Cassandra model that I developed in 1994 is a quant model. It has a twenty-three year history of performance and an excellent track record. It is a quant model algorithm that incorporates both human and computer input; and number crunching analysis. The proprietary algorithm that I developed for the Cassandra model looks at the health and financial strength of a company; assesses the growth prospects for the company; and tries to ensure that one is paying a reasonable price for the company. It could be considered a “growth at a reasonable price” model (a term popularized by legendary investor Peter Lynch). It is a quant model in every respect that is designed with a very sophisticated algorithm of its own; but it was designed not to get carried away with factors and formulas that have nothing to do with a company being a company. It is a more reasoned approach to investing based on fundamentals that drive a company’s performance and valuation. Accordingly, I have dubbed the process I use with the Cassandra Model Quant Lite – because at the end of the day, you are investing in a business, not an objective function. (Note: an objective function is a term used in the mathematical modeling process known as linear programming).
