1. Key to making stocks is not to get scared out of them. 2. A fifth grader should be able to understand from your language WHY you buy a stock 3. Sales and earnings must be moving, earnings represent the stock price in the long run 4. Buy at reasonable price 5. Look for undervalued stocks 6. When even the analysts are bored it is time to start buying: search for overlooked stocks with strong owners
*The* *housing* *market* *does* *seem* *a* *bit* *high* , *and* *maybe* *that* *means* *to* *continue* *to* *look* *but* *not* *put* *100%* *percent* *effort* *sifting* *through* *deals* . I think following your return on investment numbers is the most important, and that should help you determine if you want to purchase a deal even if the market has elevated prices. I think the hardest part about real estate is not crunching the numbers, but having the *persistence* to continue looking for deals *AND* having the *patience* (disciplined mind) to not act on a bad investment just because it may feel like progress has not been made in a while.
Sometimes it's hard for me to even follow simple books, I find it difficult to take things in. Your videos are really helpful in such aspects of explaining it beautifully and simply.
Thanks for sharing. Pls. take note that this is an old book, you should add the date of the book when you speak about the best/worst performing industries. Principals are still the same, though.
Best/worst performing industries are from the last 5 years. It says so in the animations but perhaps I could have added audio for it as well, thank you for the feedback 😁
“5 Tips to Successful Stock Investing” by Pat Dorsey (from MorningStar). It’s a great book to start with and is pretty easy to read for a beginner. Gets you familiar with some basic terminology and concepts. Just a suggestion
Hello sir, how to calculate the equity-to-asset ratio in the S&L chapter, is it count as percentage or what, because in the book there is no percentage shown while he explain this ratio, Im so confused. Sorry for my bad English, I hope you understand what I mean
Hey Dante Inferno! 100% correct, equity-to-assets should be calculated as a %. Usually the higher, the better, as it means that the company got som dry powder for more lending/more aggressive moves in the future. Beware though, as dividends and share repurchases lead to a lower ratio.
is it really determined by those categories? sometimes the stock is way too strong... cant even short it. clearly being controlled by something. some stocks are just Zombie in certain days... but looks active on level 2 for some reason.
Hey, I have a question Peter Lynch said that if the company is doing well overtime the stock will also do well but what if there are no sentiments or anything wouldn't the share price stay stagnant because people don't know it since it's underrated, Thoughts? Thanks in advance!!
Thank you for the suggestion a b! I will be doing books even more targeted towards investing specifically from now on. It makes the most sense with my own skills set, as it is here I can contribute the most. Is there one that you know of that is targeted specifically towards the investing audience?
I would suggest 'Expectations Investing' & 'More Than You Know' as the two that are most focused on investing. He is a highly acclaimed investor in his own right so most of his books tend to have some investing focus anyway. Thanks Swedish!
Hi jenkins phu! For stock market investing I like One up on Wall Street & Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits the most I think. Of course Security Analysis by Benjamin Graham too, but it's a bit more difficult, and I'd only go for that one if you have some prior accounting and stock market knowledge.
Hey Saurabh Sharma! First I looked in Google's parent company, Alphabet's old income statement. You can find them in the annual reports of the company, or from an online database such as TIKR. Then I looked at the line "net income" in both 2008 and 2013. I noticed that there were $4.2b of earnings in 2008 and $12.7b in 2013. Then I solved the equation 4.2*x^5=12.7, where the x represents the growth rate per year and the 5 represents the five years between 2008 and 2013. Hope this helps!
Hi Swedish Investor. Big fan, keep up the good work. Can you do a review of the book "The Warren Buffet Portfolio". It clearly shows why diversification is overrated and to really make money an investor has to concentrate his/her knowledge and investments.
i don't understand what do you mean by great companies with bad industries, because if the industries are the company will be bad too? i am a little bit confused
Hi Deep Mind! A bad industry would be one with low, no or declining growth, or one that fluctuates a low where companies are weeded out from time to time. Owning a low-cost producer within such an industry can usually be very profitable, because they survive when the competition fall. They may have low multiples at times when the industry is facing difficulties, but they are the companies that will survive and thrive when the competition is gone.
The Swedish Investor oh i see now thanks for your explanation it really helped a lot , like for example : “Apple is a great company , but it had a hard time and the growth rate has fallen a bit with its industry. “ so that is a great opportunity to invest in it again.
