297- Quick Question: Is Cash Okay?

InvestED: The Rule #1 Investing Podcast ·

2020/12/29

When a company makes the decision to go public, shares of that company become available for purchase, allowing anyone to buy a stake in the company. Each share is a stock, and investors are able to buy and sell shares in any public company at any time. Of course, as with any form of business, the goal is to buy a company’s stock when it’s “on sale” or undervalued relative to its actual value, and to sell that stock when it’s fully valued in order to make a profit. A simplified look at a successful

295- Luck vs. Skill in Investing with Jake Taylor

InvestED: The Rule #1 Investing Podcast ·

2020/12/15

Investing in the stock market does not involve luck or gambling. It requires a strategy and a solid foundation of knowledge. Investing in anything, especially the stock market, when you don’t have a concrete strategy can be scary. It’s a serious journey that shapes your life and can determine whether or not you live a life free from financial burden. For example, if you don’t have a solid amount of money to retire on in 20 or 30 years from now, the government may not have the funds available to

What's going to happen to the market in the following months? No one knows for sure. All you can do for now is stick to your process, and stay in the right mindset for rational investing. When you get overwhelmed by stress, lack of sleep, or other factors, your rational mind loses power and your emotions take over. This is a terrible mindset for making investment decisions. You can't avoid those stressful situations as an investor, but the way you handle them can drastically change your outcome

Investing has changed drastically over the years. Many of the tools that were hardly accessible or cost money to use are now available at the click of a button. For instance, one of the best tools that investors can access online is the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. The SEC is an independent federal regulatory agency tasked with protecting investors and capital, overseeing the stock market and proposing and enforcing federal securities laws. By using the SEC, you can view information

292- How to Clone Investors

InvestED: The Rule #1 Investing Podcast ·

2020/11/24

Have you ever cloned another investor? As the name implies, cloning refers to the strategy of following or copying the ideas of famous investors or fund managers. Most investors believe this is an ethical strategy, and Rule #1 investors actually take advantage of the fact that we can clone or follow expert investors. This idea of cloning goes all the way back to when Warren Buffett first started watching Ben Graham’s investing strategies, and other investing gurus openly stating that they cloned

290- Post-Election Predictions

InvestED: The Rule #1 Investing Podcast ·

2020/11/10

Phil predicts a devaluation of the buying power of the US dollar. Therefore, there may be problems on the horizon for investors. Inflation is a natural result of currency fluctuations, because it will cost more to purchase goods and services. In some markets, inflation destroyed the stock market for 20 years! For instance, when there was a high rate of inflation in the United States from 1965-1983, the rate of return was nearly 0%. If Phil’s predictions are true, there will be a major problem for

287- Investing Q&A: Stock Splits and Company Valuations

InvestED: The Rule #1 Investing Podcast ·

2020/10/13

A stock split is when a company decides to exchange more shares at a lower price for stockholders' existing shares. They happen from time to time, so it's important for us as investors to understand what that means. Stock splits make stocks more accessible to individual shareholders, make selling put options cheaper, and typically tends to increase share prices in the short run. So does a stock split impact your investment if you already own the stock? It shouldn’t, because your investment should

286- Real Estate Investing

InvestED: The Rule #1 Investing Podcast ·

2020/10/06

If you think that because real estate lets you leverage your investment, the rate of return is much higher than a business/stock investment, and is, therefore a better place for beginner investors to put their money, think again. This is a commonly held idea that is completely mistaken. Phil and other expert investors including Warren Buffett have owned real estate, everything from subdivisions to large farms, apartments, commercial property, and single-family homes. If you were to do a real

2020/09/22

Warren Buffett says that the ideal investment is one that you can hold onto forever, growing your money for as long as you own it. However, Buffett and every other successful investor also knows that there are times when selling a stock is the best route. For example, Phil Town was a big fan of IBM and bought into the company in his earlier investing years. He researched IBM thoroughly, and felt that he understood the business as if it were his own. A few years later, IBM got a new CEO named Ginni

283- Investing Q&A: Four Ms of Investing

InvestED: The Rule #1 Investing Podcast ·

2020/09/15

Investing is one of the most morally charged and important things we can do. If we’re privileged enough to be among the few who have more money than is necessary to survive, we must be careful about how we allocate that excess capital. Ultimately, it could determine how the world works for our family for generations to come. So as you’re building your watchlist, keep in mind that you are buying businesses, NOT stocks. For instance, although the marijuana industry is starting to grow, you would

One of the core Rule #1 investing principles is to buy wonderful companies at attractive prices. This helps take the risk out of investing and makes it easier to get fantastic returns. However, there are other factors that you must consider before you commit to any companies on your watchlist. A great company encompasses four simple elements, and we call these elements the “Four Ms of Investing.” First, the company must have Meaning to you.

Invest in what you understand. Sounds simple, right? Shouldn’t everyone be investing in what they understand? Warren Buffett once stated that defining your circle of competence is the most important aspect of investing. Circle of competence is tricky to define, but is essentially built by the things you are passionate about, what you’re talented or good at, and things you spend money on. It could even be related to the industry you currently work in and are knowledgeable about. The goal is to be

280- Margin of Safety Valuation

2020/08/25

In Rule #1 investing, we call “buying on sale” purchasing stocks with a Margin of Safety. All you have to do to get a big MOS is know the value of the business you are buying—as a business—and then wait to buy it until the market drops much lower than the value. Today, Phil and Danielle dive deeper into Margin of Safety valuations, and explain why understanding how to value a company is critical to stockpiling.

279- Payback Time

InvestED: The Rule #1 Investing Podcast ·

2020/08/18

A powerful way to arrive at the margin of safety price is the “How long before I get my money back” method—aka Payback Time. If you buy the whole business and pocket all the earnings, Payback Time is the time it would take you to get your investment back. Once you get all of your money out of the business, you have no risk. Today, Phil and Danielle discuss this concept in depth, and explain why knowing Payback Time eliminates many fears of investing.
