☕️ Sunday Coffee: Get the business right
And you can get the investment right
Ben Graham taught us that a stock is not a ticker symbol, squiggly line on a chart, or something to trade. A share of stock is a small ownership stake in a real, functioning business.
Therefore, any investment should start with an assessment of the business. Ask questions like:
Do I understand this business? If not, can I figure it out?
What advantage does this business have that will ensure it’s around for a long time?
Do I trust the people running this business?
What could go wrong with this business? Can it survive a significant recession?
If you decide you can’t figure out the business, don’t trust the people running it, or that it’s not that strong of a business, no need to go any further. Pass and look at another opportunity.
Do not think about:
The price relative to recent history
Momentum
Technical patterns
Trading volume
Volatility
Get the business right and you can get the investment right.
🙏 Only when you find a business you’d like to own can you can start considering things intrinsic value and stock price.
