About Chris Waller
Welcome to Hidden Gems Investing by Chris Waller, Founder and Portfolio Manager at Plural Investing.
I look for ‘hidden gems’ in the small-cap value space. These businesses are usually leaders in niches but may be overlooked because they receive little coverage, operate in unpopular industries, or offer terrific opportunities beyond short-term concerns.
The defining feature of my research is that I do extensive primary research, typically sourcing and speaking with 20 industry experts prior to making an investment, with ongoing conversations and attendance at industry events like trade shows.
Here is a free copy of a 1-page summary & 30-page report I wrote on TerraVest, a serial acquirer of niche storage tank businesses that multiplied in value after I wrote it up. The report was based on well over 100 hours of research and discussions with around 20 sources.
