“Graham’s Geiger counter”
Benjamin Graham suggested that one way to measure the valuation of the overall market was to assess the number of net-nets available. When many such opportunities exist, it indicates a cheap market overall, while their absence suggests that the market is expensive. Today’s net-nets, however, are not the same as Graham’s net-nets. Many are un-investable being Chinese RTO’s, loss-making biopharma’s etc. But we do think it is interesting to follow this number over time, and what percentage of total listed stocks qualify as a “naked” net-net without any type of quality adjustments to make them investable. Below is a net-net screen from Stockopedia.
