I built a Rule #1 calculator to help investors find great businesses at fair prices
Hey everyone, I got tired of jumping between different research tools just to answer one basic question: “Is this a great business trading at a fair price?” So I built a simple platform based on the Rule #1 investing methodology. The goal is to put the key information in one …
What is the point in investing in value stocks if they behave worse than their sector?
I tried in the last year to buy companies that had better fundamentals and are cheaper than their sector, only to find out that they are falling more than their sector and are worse at recovery, and only by a lot of luck I get better performance than their sector. …
