Discovery of the “God” Particle

There is one primary reason why I have spent the past decade developing the discipline of Discovery Investing. The discipline does not fit easily into the financial planner or fund manager’s idea of asset classes. Advisors usually think in terms of Growth and Value in micro, small, medium and large capitalization stocks across these two classic categories. Growth stocks have high earnings growth while Value stocks tend to be “Contrarian” with low P/E multiples. Both types may be discovery companies. There has been no appropriate method to identify and rank stocks that will experience wealth creating discovery impulses by “world class” discovery potential. The entire issue of discovery is entrepreneurial in form, from risk taking, to funding, to management team establishment, to ultimate value creation. It requires entrepreneurial thinking and most important entrepreneurial faith.
