GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price) is an investing strategy that blends the best of both worlds—growth and value. It’s a favourite at OVAM, and here’s why you should consider it too.
What is GARP Investing?
GARP investors look for companies that are growing steadily—but are still reasonably priced. It avoids overhyped stocks with sky-high valuations and instead focuses on sustainable growth with capital protection.
Why GARP Works:
- Balance of Risk and Reward: You get growth without chasing volatile trends.
- Consistent Compounding: Focuses on businesses with strong fundamentals and steady profits.
- Lower Downside Risk: By avoiding overvalued stocks, you reduce your chances of steep losses.
