It is a very simple idea to use the power of compound interest  Smart people are easily attracted by complex things, and underestimate the great influence and importance of simple ideas. But Monish Pabrai is a full pragmatist, and he will not fall into this trap. "It is a very simple idea to use the power of compound interest, a very simple idea to imitate, and a very simple idea to be honest." He said. However, when you apply some powerful ideas with great enthusiasm, the cumulative effect is "incomparable".

How did Buffett buy at the bottom?

 

How did Buffett buy at the bottom?


We can't predict where the bottom of the market is.

In fact, no one can predict accurately.

Like Buffett can't judge the bottom.

Buffett started to act when he was in the middle of the 2008-2009 financial crisis.

Buffett's position in the financial sector is detached, and he has repeatedly made bottom calls when the market fell sharply.

We all know that Buffett has a lot of cash and bonds in his hands.

When the financial crisis appeared in 2008, Buffett once again acted as a firefighter.

Bought preferred shares of general electric and Goldman Sachs.

Buffett made a very interesting operation after taking the shot.

He immediately participated in the TV program, published public relations, and expressed his confidence in the economy. And stressed that he was already buying US stocks.

This excited the market at that time. Buffett is good at using his influence.

But then the financial crisis continued. Buffett's TV program did not reduce the decline of US stocks.

Berkshire, its subsidiary, also fell 30% in the second half of the financial crisis.

After Buffett bought the preferred shares of general electric and Goldman Sachs, the preferred shares of the two companies fell by more than 30% and 50% respectively.

Of course, it took the SP 500 more than two years to recover from the full decline of the financial crisis. In the following years, US stocks also continued to rise.

If you stand for a few months to a year or two, Buffett's shot at that time had large short-term fluctuations.

But looking back a few years later, Buffett's move at that time, although it did not buy at the bottom, was still full of money.

Underestimation is a region, not a point.

When investing, we can't predict the bottom.

However, whether the current market and varieties are cheap can still be judged.

Look ahead to the future and live in the present

 Look ahead to the future and live in the present In short, what investors need to do is to "look ahead to the future and live in the present" -- not only strive to see the trajectory of future development, but also endure loneliness and calm down, and not pay for expensive tickets in advance for a wonderful future that is just a possibility. The fundamental analysis of enterprises must spread to three perspectives simultaneously, namely "the essence of market, the essence of the business, and the essence of investment". It will bring potential risks to investment analysis to only advocate any one of them and ignore the others. Understand the long-term development trend and final pattern of the industry from the essence of the market "supply and demand", and understand the fundamental decisive factors of the industry and the ability to produce differentiated competitive advantages from the essence of the business "competition", Then from the esse

Spatial induction and temporal induction

Image
 Spatial induction and temporal induction Before explaining the "misunderstanding of induction", we first need to fully understand the specific connotation of this thinking mode. Usually, when people use induction, they often set a certain reference first. From the inertia of human thinking, this reference is often space or time. The so-called spatial induction, in short, means that people will acquiesce to the effective law in one space, and it is also effective in other spaces or even all spaces. Just like an entrepreneur who succeeds in a certain regional market, he will take it for granted that he can succeed in other markets. We can use a more popular example to illustrate. If all the swans people see in Europe are white, all the swans they see in Africa are white, and all the swans they see in Asia are white, people will naturally default that swans all over the world are white. As the name suggests, temporal induction means that some rules that were established in the

About sales distribution channels

 About sales distribution channels Generally speaking, the higher the added value, the more complex the pre-sales and after-sales work, and the customers must continue to re-educate and explore the business, direct selling is the most appropriate. Although the initial stage is slow, the critical factor for the success of this business is to establish a strong influence on customers. In short, it is to "brainwash" customers. This complex and high-tech work channel is difficult to replace. And in the long term, the success or failure of this business does not depend on who achieved the scale effect through the channel first but on continuous innovation and the differentiation of value demands. Therefore, the temporary slowdown does not affect the long-term competitiveness of enterprises. On the contrary, this work is left to the distributor channel. The longer the time, the greater the hidden interest and the smaller the benefit. However, for businesses with low added value, a
