Individuals don't have to report quarterly performance so you can take a long view and buy: 1. Stocks selling at a big discount to book value with a catalyst, 2. Stocks selling way out of whack with past relationships with a catalyst, and 3. Dirt-cheap stocks developing technologies of the future with—you guessed it—a catalyst.
