The 2022 Double Net Value Portfolio is a diverse bunch and includes a few carryovers from the 2021 version.

The 2021 Double Net Value Portfolio started strong but ran out of gas in the second half of the year as small-cap stocks in general faded.

The charts of the supplier of electronic components indicate higher prices for its shares are on the horizon.

Eighteen stocks make the cut for the 2021 portfolio, which is comprised of seemingly cheap names relative to net current assets.
