the& nbsp;Third Avenue Value Fund & nbsp; is managed by Matthew Fine and Michael Fineman. They described their approach in their first quarter letter:
"The& nbsp;The investment philosophy of Third Avenue Management & nbsp; revolves around our quest for undervalued titles. Unsurprisingly, the presence of low prices is often badociated with relatively mediocre medium-term prospects for a sector, firm or country. By definition, this approach is contrarian in nature, more price-sensitive than outlook, and requires a multi-year investment horizon. Moreover, the low price itself, while critical for our investment approach, is not a sufficient condition for investing. In addition to the margin of safety provided by the payment of reduced prices, we strive to provide additional security features through a rigorous badysis of the financial situation of a company, from a financial point of view. cautious estimates of commercial value, a good deal of skepticism with regard to the ability to make accurate calculations. long-term forecasts and the avoidance of the decline of secular activity and the risk of obsolescence. With regard to this form of valuable investment, in which the number of practitioners is relatively small, it is often said that opportunities find us rather than find them. In other words, the investment approach is reactive to the presented opportunities. "
