So when you think about an asset as a business, you got to understand the business. You have to understand what drives its growth and its profitability and its risk and bring them all into an assessment of value. Now we might call this a discounted cash flow valuation, but remember valuation predates discounted cash flow valuation.
Discounted cash flow valuation is a tool that has been developed primarily in the last 87 years, 1937 John Williams book is the first one one that described the mechanics of discounted cash flow valuation. But I think of intrinsic valuation as predating discounted cash flow valuation.
