The idea behind my bargain share portfolios is really simple: invest in companies where the true worth of the assets is not reflected in the share price, usually for some temporary reason, but where we can realistically expect that it will be in due course. This balance-sheet approach to investing has undoubtedly stood the test of time, as my portfolios have beaten the FTSE All-Share in 11 out of the past 13 years and generated a compound annual return of 13.8 per cent.
