ไม่ทราบสมาชิก TVI สนใจจะอ่านบันทึกการบรรยายของ Warren Buffett สดๆร้อนเมื่อ 28 ม.ค. 48 ที่ผ่านมาแก่นักศึกษามหาวิทยาลัย Vanderbuilt หรือเปล่าครับ เป็นภาษาอังกฤษ โดยเป็นการบันทึกที่ Mohnish Pabrai แนะนำให้ Sanjeev Parsad ซึ่งเป็นเจ้า Berkshire Hathaway Shareholders ซึ่งมี address ดังนี้:

Mohnish Pabrai เป็นชาวอินเดียที่ย้ายไปอยู่ที่อเมริกาเมื่อราว 10 กว่าปีก่อนและเรียนจบเป็นวิศวกรคอมพิวเตอร์ที่อเมริกา เขาเป็นทั้ง entrepreneur และหันมาเอาดีทางการลงทุนในตลาดหุ้นสหรัฐ โดยศึกษาแนวทางของ Ben Graham และ Warren Buffett เป็นลูกศิษย์ของ Warren Buffett แต่เน้นหนักไปในแนวของ Ben Graham (เจ้าตัวบอกอย่างนั้นนะครับ)
ที่สำคัญเขาเปิดกองทุนเหมือน Warren Buffett สมัยเริ่มต้น และในช่วง 4 ปีที่ผ่านมาสามารถทำผลตอบแทนเพิ่มขึ้นปีละ 35% (สูงกว่าตัว Warren Buffett)
ฉายเป็นตัวอย่างก่อนนะครับ เพราะยาวมากตั้ง 7 หน้า

How Warren spends his day:- Wakes up at 6:45, reads paper at home, often doesnt make it into the office until after the
market opens
- No set schedule, WB hates having a full calendar
- Always takes reading material home
- Spends 80% of the day reading, 20% talking on the phone (he then said it might be more
like 90/10)
- Phone conversations are generally short
Investment process:
- In the past some things were cheap enough WB could decide in a day (this was somewhat a
function of a time period where companies would sell at 2-3x earnings)
- Decisions should be obvious to onlookers. You should be able to explain why you bought
something in a paragraph.
- I dont do DCF (WB says he does a rough approximation in his mind)
- Finding ideas is a function of cumulative knowledge over time. Something just comes along
usually an event takes place, like a good management team screwing up that creates the
opportunity (WB seems to imply here that his reading isnt specifically targeted at finding
ideas, but rather that ideas jump out at him as a natural consequence of vociferous reading)
- You must be patientgood ideas tend to be clustered together, and may not come at even
time intervalswhen you dont find anything for a while it can be irritating
- WB isnt bothered by missing something outside his circle of competence
- Missing things inside the circle is nerve rackingexamples include WMT, FNM
Advice for new investors:- Dont worry too much about your mistakes
- Dont learn too much from your mistakes
o Dont become Mark Twains frog that never sat again on a stove after being burned
o BUTnever be willing to play a fatal game
- Dont confuse social progress with the chance to make money look at airlines and autos
for examples
- Law degree is not essential, but good if you think it will help in your specific career
- Learning to think like a lawyer is a valuable trait
- Allocate even more of your day to reading than he does
- Read lots of Ks and Qs there are no good substitutes for these
- Read every page
- Ask business managers the following question: If you could buy the stock of one of your
competitors, which one would you buy? If you could short, which one would you short?
- Always read source (primary) data rather than secondary data
- If you are interested in one company, get reports for competitors. You must act like you
are actually going into that business, and if you were, youd want to know what your
competitors were doing.
