  • The idea is that markets are subject to herd behavior, heightened by fear and greed, which makes the markets periodically overpriced and undervalued.
  • The opposite see opportunities to buy shares that are currently selling at below their intrinsic value.
  • Controversy can be useful, but it is often a risky strategy that can pay off over a long period of time.
  • Another disadvantage associated with the opposite investor is the need to spend a lot of time researching stocks to find undervalued opportunities.
