Something interesting to note is that Warren Buffet started out making his money in something called value investing [1]. The principle is that you use things like assets, employees, IP, sales, factory output, sales, etc. to calculate your expected share price and if you check the actual share price and find it to be greatly undervalued, you would buy up a somewhat significant part of the business. I assume this also allows you to have some kind of say in the future of the business and I assume that you would prefer it if the company were not that large yet. It would be interesting to hear what a young Warren Buffet would have had to say (since the old one does actually tell us what he has to say).
