Great Value Investing Quotes – Part 5
2008-01-13 02:09:00 Bob Goldfarb (Sequoia Fund) One could logically challenge my conclusion that retaining securities of outstanding companies with excellent growth prospects through periods of overvaluation will turn out to be the most profitable course to follow. One could argue that our investors would have been better off if we had sold Berkshire and Progressive at the end of 1998 and bought them back at much lower prices in subsequent years. However, one of the manylessons that I have learned about investing from Charlie Munger is that finding and buying a great company at a great, or even a good, price is hard enough to do once. Buying a great company at the right time, selling it subsequently at the right time, and then buying it back at the right time would be winning a trifecta of difficult investment decisions. The odds are overwhelmingly against you winning that trifecta.Living through that long dry spell is the price that long-term investors must willinglypay if they believe that they o...

Great Value Investing Quotes – Part 4
2008-01-10 18:12:00 Philip Fisher"The stock market is filled with individuals who know the price of everything, but the value of nothing." -Common Stocks And Uncommon Profits"The percentage of investors who own 25 or more different stocks is appalling. It is not this number of 25 or more which itself is appalling. Rather it is that in the great majority of instances only a small percentage of such holdings is in attractive stocks about which the investor has a high degree of knowledge. Investors have been so oversold on diversification that fear of having too many eggs in one basket has caused them to put far too little into companies they thoroughly know and far too much in others about which they know nothing at all. It never seems to occur to them that buying a company without having sufficient knowledge of it may be even more dangerous than having inadequate diversification.""The investor cannot pinpoint just how much per share a particular company will earn two years from now. As a matter of fact,...

Great Value Investing Quotes – Part 3
2008-01-09 09:50:00 Ben Graham"In the short run, the market is a voting machine but in the long run it is a weighing machine.""Confronted with a challenge to distill the secret of sound investment into three words, we venture the motto, Margin of Safety.""As long as the earnings power of his holdings remains satisfactory, the investor can give as little attention as he pleases to the vagaries of the stock market. More than that, at times he can use these vagaries to play the master game of buying low and selling high. The investor who permits himself to be stampeded or unduly worried by the unjustified market declines in his holdings is perversely transforming his basic advantage into a basic disadvantage. Price fluctuations have only one significant meaning for the true investor. They provide him with an opportunity to buy wisely when prices fall sharply and to sell wisely when they advance a great deal. At other times he will do better if he forgets about the stock market and pays attention to…the ...

2008-01-08 08:21:00 BDV-606697-BDV Charlie Munger"All intelligent investing is value investing - to acquire more than you are paying for. Investing is where you find a few great companies and then sit on your ass."-2000 Annual Meeting"Think about it a little bit more and you'll agree with me, because you're smart and I'm right.""If you don't get this elementary, but mildly unnatural, mathematics of elementary probability into your repertoire, then you go through a long life like a one legged man in an ass kicking contest. You're giving a huge advantage to everybody else.""It’s not given to human beings to have such talent that they can just know everything all the time. But it is given to human beings who work hard at it – who look and sift the world for a mispriced bet – that they can occasionally find one. And the wise ones bet keenly when the world offers that opportunity. They bet big when they have the odds. And the rest of the time, they don’t. It’s just that simple." (Outstanding ...

Both mean different things, and what investment style you would use depends on the kind of person you are. I can bet, that most investors do not really understand the difference between value investing and growth investing. If you are one of them, this would be a good time to get it right.Value InvestingValue investing is the strategy of selecting stocks that trade for less than what they are really worth. Value investors keep looking for stocks that are under priced but have excellent financial record. This information can be obtained by looking at the financial statements (balance sheet, income statement). Value investors typically take into consideration attributes like low price to earnings ratio (P/E), price to book ratio (P/B), price to sales ratio (P/S) and high dividend yields. In short, value is defined based on low valuations (low price ratios and high dividend y...
