Margin of Safety

Popularized by legends Benjamin Graham and Warren Buffet, Margin of Safety is an investing principle in which an investor only buys securities when the market price is materially lower than its intrinsic value. Investors may set a margin of safety in accordance with their own risk preferences. Buying securities when margin of safety is present allows an investment to be made with minimal downside risk.
