Correctloh Armada & insas are good buy as per Peter Lynch advice loh..!!

Posted by 3iii > Jul 8, 2019 6:59 PM | Report Abuse

Repost the advice by Peter Lynch.

1. Consider concentrating your efforts on finding fast growers. If bought at the right price, some of these can become 'tenbaggers' - shares that multiply your investment ten times over.

2. Otherwise, look for turnarounds and perhaps the occasional asset play.

3. Consider trying to avoid holding cash. It is better to stay fully invested by putting any spare money into stalwarts. That way, you will not miss out on rising markets.

4. Avoid slow growers (too unprofitable) and cyclicals (too hard to time).

In summary, Peter Lynch advises:

1. Look to invest into these classes of companies in this order of priority:

Fast grower > Turnaround > Asset play

2. Avoid staying in cash, instead park your spare cash in stalwarts.

3. Avoid slow growers (too unprofitable) and cyclicals (too hard to time).

Although 8% may seem a disappointing rate of return to locker-room braggarts, it appears high when viewed as a return on productive investment, rather than on financial investment. While businesses often target higher returns on investment than this, they rarely achieve them.


An average return of 8% per annum before inflation is a demanding, but not impossible, target for the intelligent investor. The inflation target is about 2%, so that a corresponding real return is between above 6%.

An 8% return will turn $100 into $215 in 10 years and a 6% real return will add 80% to the purchasing power of your savings in a decade.

Given the current environment, late economic cycle, perhaps holding cash is not a bad decision afterall. for one, you could protect yourself from the massive drop in asset prices. and secondly, you are in a better position to take advantage of other people's risk aversion. of course, how much allocation to cash is very subjective. no one rule fits all.

My competitive advantage is having a very long-term investment approach.

Long term = stock-holding period >5 years and sometimes >10-year buying period for a stock.

Four common myths about value investors is that:

1. Value investors only invest in bear markets.

2. Only low price to earnings (P/E) ratio stocks qualify as bargain investments.

3. High-growth businesses cannot be value investments.

4. Value investors never sell stocks short.



Four things that are true about value investors is that:

1. They only invest in business they understand. :thumbsup:

2. They get excited when equity prices are declining. :thumbsup:

3. They first think about the proba-bility of capital loss before thinking about the capital gain.# :thumbsup:

4. They tend to find great bargains in unloved areas of the market. :thumbsup:

Every investment strategy goes through periods where it works poorly. That’s life. If you have a strategy that always works well, that means:

-You haven’t run it long enough.
-You’re not running enough money.
-You’re not taking enough risk.

Survive through your bad times, and prosper during the times where your intelligent strategy is paying off. Patience is a virtue in investing for the most part.

Buffett thinks there are two main factors in assessing management:

-How have their results been?
-How do they treat the company's shareholders? Look also at how management treats themselves relative to the shareholder by reading the proxy circular.

Buffett later went on to say that one of the two or three most important things a Chief Executive Officer does is to allocate capital (i.e., invest money - either retained earnings or new outside capital).

Although Warren Buffett had stronger percentage returns in phase I, I would say he created way more wealth in dollar terms, during phase II. The first phase made Warren Buffett a millionaire but the Buffett Prime stage is what put Buffett on the map. This is the phase when Warren Buffett bought large, dominant, companies like Washington Post, American Express, and Geico.
Warren Buffett used to be 100% Benjamin Graham during phase I, whereas he started being influenced by Philip Fisher and Charlie Munger during the 1970's (and early 60's to some degree). Fisher and Munger instilled growth investing into Warren Buffett. Whereas Graham had a singular focus on the strength of the balance sheet and quantitative factors, Fisher/Munger taught Warren Buffett to look at earnings power and qualitative elements. Warren Buffett started to realize, and put into practice, the notion that earnings power and qualitative factors (such as brands or intellectual property) gel to form a powerful moat. The notion of a moat may have been used in earlier times but it really became powerful when you focus on earnings power and hard-to-measure qualitative elements.

Buffett also started buying companies, not way-below intrinsic value, but close to intrinsic value. Instead of buying weak companies that are significantly undervalued, he started buying great companies at fair or slightly-below-fair-value prices. If you were able to get a great company for a fairly reasonable, albeit not extremely cheap, price, it also meant that you could hold on to them for a long period of time. Great companies have long lifespans and high return on equity so it didn't make sense to sell these golden geese just because they hit intrinsic value.

Investment Education

MBA’s have been taught a lot of nonsense about investing.

If Buffett were teaching about investing, he would teach two courses:
1.How to value a business
2.How to think about market prices

Ray Kroc did not think about options; he thought about how to sell more hamburgers.

You must know the difference between which businesses can be valued and which cannot. Buying cheap businesses works.

(2) Possess High Returns on both Equity and Total Capital
(3) Are priced with the highest current rate of return (yield)

Raider,
u totally miss the point. i meant, if both u n iiinvestsmart started out at the same moment, u might outperform him in the very short term. today, there is no where even near the returns u hav even compared with the returns on just his dividends.

imagine this, in his portfolio u hav stocks bought at 2.00 paying dividends of 1.80(today), imagine next year. what is that return? your 30% or even 40% return (one off) isnt even.......close!!!!

Is there any margin of safety buying at Rm 27.50 ah ? If yes how ?

Today, DLady is trading at 64.00 per share.

Using historical cost of $27.50 per share in Feb 2012,
its

DY based on historical cost = $2 / $27.50 = 7.3%.

Was DLady overpriced in 2012?

Was $27.50 in 2012 expensive?

Was $27.50 in 2012 at a price which might lead to low reward/ high risk situation?

Was $27.50 in 2012 a price that did not provide a margin of safety?

What was the intrinsic value of DLady in 2012?
