It is not often that I get a investment book that holds my attention. Usually, I find a lot of parroting, but this book is one book that gets me reading non-stop for 2 chapters. I have been reading it for days without complaint and I have been re-reading some of the chapters. It has been a while since "Uncommon Profits, Common Sense" that I find a book that intrigues me.
The cover of the book looks like this. A glance of the content page show you various investment style by the "gurus"
I believed my investment beliefs centered more around FA, and the area I look at are cyclicals and turnaround plays. When I settled off reading the value investors and growth investors, that all have nuggets of wisdom that I thought I could apply, like Scoring system, cash flow growth, etc.
As I went on to thematic and TA of those investors, I read how they talk about value traps, and the shortcomings of value investing. Yet, if you ask me, I find all these investors who "debate" against the wisdom of value investing very grounded in FA. It is about alpha, sector, momentum, but it never fails against looking at the management, balance sheet etc. Even for someone who looks at "cup" pattern (whatever that means), talk about market leadership, comparison of competitors and how "weaklings" move compared to the leaders.
Some talk about how as a money manager, they need to manage client expectations and, while he admits tha value investing works, it might not work well enough since the client might pull the money before any meaning appreciation could happen.
If you are free this holiday, or because you work from home, it is a good read. It is easy to navigate and you could go to any investor's interview. Before the transcript of the interview, there is a introduction introducing the investor and their track records, life etc. After the interview, there is a summary of important points made in the interview. The summary is just a 5 min read, if you wish.
Hope you enjoy the book. I will update when I read it deeper.
Sillyinvestor,
ReplyDeleteWell, Growth investing has beaten Value investing by a WIDE margin over the last ten years - especially for the US and HK (which is China really) markets.
Value investing works better in bear markets though.
Yup, to be able to poke at other investing/trading styles, we first have to know a lot more about the other investing/trading styles FIRST!
;)
Investment is one of the best ways to achieve financial freedom. For a beginner there are so many challenges you face. It's hard to know how to get started. Trading on the Cryptocurrency market has really been a life changer for me. I almost gave up on crypto at some point not until saw a recommendation on Elon musk successfully success story and I got a proficient trader/broker Mr Bernie Doran , he gave me all the information required to succeed in trading. I made more profit than I could ever imagine. I'm not here to converse much but to share my testimony; I have made total returns of $20,500.00 from an investment of just $2000.00 within 1 week. Thanks to Mr Bernie I'm really grateful,I have been able to make a great returns trading with his signals and strategies .I urge anyone interested in INVESTMENT to take bold step in investing in the Cryptocurrency Market, he can also help you RECOVER your lost Cryptocurrencies. you can reach him on his Gmail : BERNIEDORANSIGNALS@GMAIL.COM

Wow, Smol,
ReplyDeleteThank you for chipping in with your nuggets of wisdoms. Guess there is a time and place for any of these to work for US, and U and Me.
U are right. In fact, I find some value investors in Singapore bloggersphere less grounded than momentum investors or Quad investor found in the book.
I have this thought, if u want to learn both, maybe it is easier to learn some TA first, because I know of a lot of Value investors (I mean real ones) who rubbished TA
Although I would define those shared in the book as pure TA. Knowing where capital flow using various indicators imho is very much FA.
Secret Formula that works in SGX = N x (Buy Low. Sell High) + N x Panadols - n x (Buy High - Hold Low) where n << N
ReplyDeleteNo?
True, CW
ReplyDeleteBut I enjoyed the mind stimulation. Hahah think here think there. Quite fun
BITCOIN, BINARY OPTION: Please everyone should be careful and stop being a victim by all these brokers and account managers, they scammed me over $ 140,000 of my investment capital, they kept on requesting for extra funds before a withdrawal request can be accepted and processed, in the end, I lost all my money. All efforts to reach out to their customer support desk had declined, I found it very hard to move on. God so kind I followed a broadcast that teaches on how scammed victims can recover their fund, I contacted the email provided for consultation, I got feedback after some hours and I was asked to provide all legal details concerning my investment, I did exactly what they instructed me to do without delay, to my greatest surprise I was able to recover my money back including my profit which my capital generated. I said I will not hold this to myself but share it to the public so that all scammed victims can get their funds back, Notice: If you are looking for a professional hacker to provide hacking solutions on Recovering Scammed funds, increase your Credit score and top up your Credit Card to any amount, Bitcoin Lost funds recovery, Social media hacks Bitcoin mining, DMV database and a lot more, search no further. hire them now by
