1/ My top three takeaways from Howard Marks' latest memo "Thinking About Macro".

Thread below🧵👇

2/ Most economic forecasters have lousy track records, so why trust them?

Time and attention is best spent elsewhere.

3/ Prices are mostly physiological elements reflected in reality.

Perceived increased demand can drive prices up, and vice versa.

Perception is not always reality.

4/ Today's inflation (like all macro predictions) is an important event, but the length unknowable.

Don't pretend to think you know the answer. Nobody does. Not even the Fed.

5/ I pretty much never look at macro forecasts, and if I do, it is purely for entertainment purposes.

Rarely does it ever come into play on an investment decision.

Buying great companies at great prices is the wisest decision.

2/7 @IntrinsicInv

I love Ensemble's mission and blog content. High quality all around.

This quarter, they focused on their positions in $NTDOY and $ILMN.

Nintendo has a long-term generational mindset, whereas the competition thinks in far shorter time-frames.
