In its Q4 2021 investor letter, TAO Value, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and TAL Education Group (NYSE:TAL) was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“Looking at the value destruction, TAL Education (TAL) is one of the most painful losses. Although the company is part of the “Mindful Compounder” bucket, it impaired by 95%. If anything, it is heavy price paid for learning that stock returns are driven by more than business and market factors, but also societal factors. I personally think having 4 out of the 5 top value destructions being recently started position in Chinese stocks is a bit biased, as the market may have overacted the most to anything China-related recently.”
