The group kept lagging last year as markets braced for a recession that would especially hurt economically sensitive small caps. And although the market isn't on small caps' side, Rendino believes historical precedent is. However, Rendino isn't discouraged by small caps' slow start and is instead pleased that his firm is outperforming. "Small caps were up in the fourth quarter, and we're having a really good year," Rendino said. "And I know why companies aren't in the good graces of investors and why certain investors shy away from companies."

Baupost Group's Seth Klarman, nicknamed "the Oracle of Boston," is revered in value investing circles for his disciplined investment philosophy, maybe because his style has stood the test of time. The billionaire hedge fund manager has been an almost religious follower of Benjamin Graham's investing style, buying out-of-favor and undervalued assets to ensure a margin of safety. Klarman has drawn comparisons to Warren Buffett — Buffett being a student of Graham's at Columbia University — for his patient, disciplined investment style. The 66-year-old Harvard and Cornell grad published his investment book, "Margin of Safety," in 1991. The hedge fund manager posted a mid-single digit decline last year, beating the S & P 500 which fell nearly 20%, the Financial Times reported.

Seth Klarman has some words of advice for regular investors who are following the guidance of Warren Buffett, and others, and are putting their money into stock index funds. In other words, when using index funds, you have to stay in the markets to capture the upside when it comes. The notable value investor also gave one other word of caution on index funds. Many financial advisors recommend steady buying over time when investing in index funds. Klarman is the editor of the recently released seventh edition of Benjamin Graham and David Dodd's investing classic "Security Analysis."

When billionaire hedge fund manager Seth Klarman looks at the investing world today, he sees asset bubbles pretty much everywhere. Historically low interest rates, even zero rates, have precipitated that bubble." With the investing world now ruled by trendy bubble-like investments such as Bitcoin and meme stocks, Klarman said the need for a sound, practical approach to investing is vital. In a letter to clients at the end of 2022, he accused the U.S. central bank of constructing a "financial fantasyland" of artificially low interest rates and liquidity pumping. In the current environment, investors face challenges relating to economic uncertainty and a central bank holding interest rates high to battle inflation.

Warren Buffett has inspired generations of value investors, and one 53-year-old, market-beating mutual fund has his legacy all over it. For almost three decades, starting in 1979, the fund was run by another acolyte of value, Jean-Marie Eveillard. Since 1979, First Eagle Global has returned more than 12% annually, even including the 5% load fee charged on the first $25,000 invested. The fund employs three main elements when it comes to security selection within the universe of global value, Brooker said. When we're not able to find things that make sense to us, that meet our underwriting criteria, we'll wait in cash," Brooker said.
