AI Summary
Summary
The post is a retrospective boast about a micro-cap stock ($TLYS) that has risen over 4x since a February 2026 analysis was posted on r/ValueInvesting, which received near-zero engagement.
The author argues that traditional value investing is not dead, but requires going into smaller, deeper-value micro-caps where institutions cannot participate, accepting higher risk for potential large gains.
Quality assessment: This is not a well-researched DD; it is a brief commentary / anecdotal reflection with no new analysis or data. It serves as a pointer to a previous post, so it is closer to noise than actionable research.

While everyone endlessly debates the same 5-10 US mega caps, well selected deep value micro caps are showing they can still make you gobs of money
$tlys is up over 4x since February(!) which is the time when this analysis was posted: https://www.reddit.com/r/ValueInvesting/s/dDDdsUDrxm
It got near 0 engagement at the time
For everyone asking: is traditional value investing dead? Nope, you just have to go smaller and deeper value where the hedge funds and institutions can’t play. You have to be willing to buy absolute dog crap and take the risk in order to win big. And you have to put in the work and be willing to buy stuff that no one cares about
