Investing in its purest sense (Analysis of Intrinsic value, buying with Margin of Safety) has been out of fashion recently, but here's an excellent resource for anyone interested in learning the core concepts.

Core concept
One of the most important illustrations in investing.

The difference between the intrinsic value of the Company based on the facts

vs

Market price that changes all the time.
Charlie Munger's checklist. ⬇️
Personally I do not like Value Investing being synonymous with buying for a cheap multiple based on past Financials while ignoring the Company's future and it's current problems.
It can (should) also mean analyzing where value is being created or being increased by the Company (usually in areas with stability/growth. aligned to trends, Moat, good Management, good ROIC, long runway....), measuring the range of intrinsic value, buying for less than that.
Overall a very useful document to get the concepts right irrespective of the method you use to buy stocks for the long-term (based on Intrinsic value, DCF, Multiple based....)

Learning Market history & correlations/lessons within is important for long-term success.

Nice article with historical perspective of US Mkts (from 1970s) & some long-term lessons. (Ignore the promotional parts by the author).

LESSON #1: Government policy can greatly affect your investment portfolio, for good or ill.

LESSON #2: Bull markets climb a wall of worry.

LESSON #3: Don’t fight the Fed. Adjust your portfolio when money is tight, and again when money is easy.
LESSON #4: Gold is money and the best insurance against an inflationary future and bad government policy, but don’t go overboard buying gold. (Not for everyone, but the author mentions that it should be done only as insurance. I guess Bitcoin is the proxy for it these days).

Two phenomenal articles by @mastersinvest on "Fighting the Fade". 👏

cc: @Gautam__Baid @dmuthuk

1) On limitations of traditional DCF & other analysis (that assume low terminal growth & mean-reverting) when it comes to exceptionally durable businesses.

2) Reasons for the fade (of weak/mediocre businesses) and some characteristics of extremely durable and long-term compounding machines.

Excellent in-depth article on the topic of "Capital Allocation".

Very useful stuff for individual investors also in judging the Management quality.

Thanks Irnest. My investing philosophy is that we need to start with good first principles/frameworks like the ones in that document, but then adapt it to the current Business/Market environment.

Few random thoughts on this in the thread below.
-Valuing CO's that are going for growth instead of Profitability when there's lot of opportunity to be captured yet.

-Intended lack of Profitability (in many cases) causing over-valuation of (or negative) Earnings based metrics.
-Co's investing mainly thru Income statement (R&D, S&M) to grow and create value rather than Balance sheet (Hard Assets, CapEx)

-Importance of Intangibles and other metrics not captured by Accounting (Mgmt Quality, emerging Moat, Culture....)

Good Flowchart.

Bottom-up analysis of Companies, while being aware of Top-down (Trends/Views) is extremely important these days.

Methodology. Many similarities with the frameworks of Buffett, Chuck Akre, Terry Smith etc..
