committed to working to improve global health by overcoming systematic impediments and increasing representation and equity.
At-home COVID-19 tests hit local pharmacies in the United States last week, more than a year after the pandemic settled in. When we last spoke to Rahul Dhanda, CEO of Sherlock Biosciences, he explained how Sherlock was working toward a CRISPR-based COVID-19 diagnostic. We caught up with Dhanda, about a year later, to get an update on the progress of those tests, learn about new directions at Sherlock, and to learn about Dhandaâs view on what it means to run a company committed to global health. (The interview has been lightly edited for length and clarity.)
All-time-high stock markets, like the
TSX today, could be scary for market-wide index investors, but not for value investors who seek to invest stocks at a discount below their intrinsic values.
How much of a discount should you require of a stock before buying? The bigger the discount, the bigger the margin of safety you get.
Traditionally, value investors seek to invest in stocks at a discount of at least 30%. Large-cap stocks like
Fortis seldom go on sale, because many investors follow them. Whenever they trade at discounts of not even close to 30%, the shares are quickly scooped up by value investors.
