Value Investing Research - Our StoryMr. Osteen bought his very first stock in 1980 and sold it when he made a 100% profit. Little did he know at the time, he had a special skill for seeing "special situation" investments and understanding that; as an investor, you don't need to know everything about the entire stock market, but only something that most other investors don't know. He had a close brother that starting investing when he was in high school who introduced him to value investing and Benjamin Graham. Although his brother was more of a dividend investor and did not have Mr. Osteen's insight into event driven opportunities, he learned many valuable lessons about investing over the years. Upon his brother's passing, Mr. Osteen went from an occasional investor to a more active investor using many of the tools and skills learned and practiced over the years. Today, Mr. Osteen uses the same research to invest his own personal capital and then offers that research to others as a dedication to his brother's memory.
