My Warren Buffett Investing Strategy takeaways:
- Don’t lose money.
- Investment temperament > Investment IQ
- You are not right or wrong because people agree with you – you are right or wrong based on facts and logic.
- Don’t worry about what a stock does – invest in a business.
- A short-term focus is not conducive to long-term profits.
- Just focus on what businesses are worth.
- You don’t have to always be buying and selling – sitting out is ok too.
- Investors/managers don’t have to use data just because they have it – don’t overcomplicate it.
- Tune out all the noise that surrounds the financial markets, focus on the fundamentals.
- Find a place to live that lets you relax and keep the market noise to a minimum.
