Low Keng Huat (Singapore)

In my opinion, as investors it is important to know the reason behind our purchase and ensure that fundamentals of the business we are investing in is strong before committing. We can't control the price or how other investors/speculators think. However, we can make sure that we minimise mistakes in investing through (1) our research and (2)buying at a low or fair enough price. Eventually, if we are right, the business will continue to grow well and the market should accord it its deserved valuation.

I find this a useful reminder, especially when no one seems to notice the companies i'm vested in and the prices seems frustratingly stuck for ages. It may not be a bad thing since accumulation can usually then be done at a fair enough price.
