• If the job has been correctly done when a common stock is purchased, the time to sell it is – almost never
  • Conservative investors sleep well
  • The stock market is filled with individuals who know the price of everything, but the value of nothing
  • Don’t follow the crowd
  • Be extra careful when buying into companies and industries that are the current darlings of the financial community
  • I had made what I believe was one of the more valuable decisions of my business life. This was to confine all efforts solely to making major gains in the long-run
  • Even in those earlier times, finding the really outstanding companies and staying with them through all the fluctuations of a gyrating market proved far more profitable to far more people than did the more colorful practice of trying to buy them cheap and sell them dear
  • The need for patience if big profits are to be made from investment
  • Doing what everyone else is doing at the moment, and therefore what you have an almost irresistible urge to do, if often the wrong thing to do at all
  • I don’t want a lot of good investments; I want a few outstanding ones
  • Nothing is worth doing unless it is worth doing right
  • Forecasting is like trying to turn lead into gold (futile)
  • Investors have been so oversold on diversification that fear of having too many eggs in one basket has caused them to put far too little into companies they thoroughly know and far too much in others which they know nothing about
  • Don’t be afraid of buying on a war scare
  • Constant leadership in engineering, not patents is the fundamental source of protection
  • In what other line of activity could you put $10,000 in one year and ten years later (with only occasional checking in the meantime to be sure management continues of high caliber) be able to have an asset worth from $40,000 to $150,000?
  • Buying a company without having sufficient knowledge of it may be even more dangerous than having inadequate diversification
  • There is a complicating factor that makes the handling of investment mistakes more difficult. This is the ego in each of us
  • It is the nature of business that in even the best-run companies unexpected difficulties, profit squeezes, and unfavorable shifts in demand for their products will at times occur
  • If the right stocks are bought and held long enough they will always produce some profit. However to produce close to the maximum profit… some consideration must be given to timing
  • Go to five companies in an industry, ask each of them intelligent questions about the points of strength and weakness of the other four, and nine times out of ten a surprisingly detailed and accurate picture of all five will emerge
  • If an investor had bought at the absolute lows, it would have been more a matter of luck than anything else
  • What is most important… is that stocks are not bought in companies where the dividend pay-out is so emphasized that it restricts realizable growth
  • None of us likes to admit to himself that he has been wrong
  • This matter of training oneself not to go with the crowd but to be able to zig when the crowd zags, in my opinion, is one of the most important fundamentals of investment success
  • I believe that the greatest long-range investment profits are never obtained by investing in marginal companies
  • Investors… had best stay away from low profit-margin or marginal companies
  • When profit margins of a whole industry rise because of repeated price increases, the indication is not a good one for the long-range investor
  • The wise investor can profit if he can think independently of the crowd and reach the rich answer when the majority of financial opinion is leaning the other way
  • If you can’t do a thing better than others are doing it, don’t do it at all
  • The successful investor is usually an individual who is inherently interested in business problems
  • Investors have been so oversold on diversification that fear of having too many eggs in one basket has caused them to put far too little into companies they thoroughly know and far too much in others which they know nothing about
  • Never promote someone who hasn’t made some bad mistakes, because if you do, you are promoting someone who has never done anything
  • Practical investors usually learn their problem is finding enough outstanding investments, rather than choosing among too many
  • Usually a very long list of securities is not a sign of the brilliant investor, but of one who is unsure of himself
