Have you ever found yourself saying:
“Wah, this stock is only $1! So cheap!”
“Aiyo, this one $1,000 already... too expensive lah!”
If you’ve said this before, you’re not alone. Many beginner investors fall into this trap — thinking that the price of a stock tells you how cheap or expensive it is.
But here’s the truth…
Let me ask you this:
If a car costs $10,000 and another car costs $100,000, is the $10,000 one a better deal?
It depends, right? What if the cheaper car has no engine? 🧨
Same thing with stocks.
The price tag — whether it’s $1 or $1,000 — means nothing without knowing what you’re getting in return.
And that’s where value investing comes in.
In value investing, we don’t look at just price. We ask:
✅ How much is this business really worth (a.k.a. intrinsic value)?
✅ How much cash flow, earnings, and growth is this company producing?
✅ Is it selling at a discount to what it’s actually worth?
Because a $1 stock can still be overpriced junk, while a $1,000 stock can be a steal if the underlying business is worth $2,000.
In fact, some of the best investments I’ve made are high-value stocks that were priced fairly, but not necessarily 'cheap' in price. Read more about Value Traps here.
