- Aswath Damodaran on valuations and uncertainty arguing that investors should embrace uncertainty in market and stocks instead of trying for the x-thousand time to value blue chip stocks. I think he is right to some extend but a) Valuation with higher uncertainty requires higher knowledge (micro/macro) and skill b) Small caps are sometimes receive low attention are easy to value and have attractive features, i.e. uncertainty is not always necessary for a seminal valuation exercise.
