well, hello! do you like my suit? i like yours! where'd you get it?! well, today i am dressed up like a business man because we are going to be reviewing a real business man's book! yep, you guessed it, you wily little bitch, that business man is the great peter lynch, not to be confused with the act of lynching which was a form of extreme racism that took place throughout the south during the early years of the civil rights movement! lol! ok let's go! Similarly, don’t heed platitudes or beliefs about when to buy and sell (things like, “It’s always darkest before the dawn,” or “If it’s this low, it can’t possibly go any lower”). There simply is never a single rule that works in every circumstance, so you’re better off using your knowledge of the company acquired through research.

With this kind of dividend-paying company, we should look at its payout ratio, which shows the percentage of its earnings paid out as dividends. More than 100% is a warning signal as it will not be sustainable; anything below 60% is conservative and more sustainable, in my opinion. When you saw a Holiday Inn franchies every twenty miles, it had to be time to worry, where else could they expand? Anyone can do it. Again that’s what Lynch tells us. He argues that anyone can find tenbaggers, that is, companies that will multiply their price by ten. Shortform note: This recommendation may no longer apply in today’s tech-saturated business world. Some argue that every company—no matter what it does—is now a tech company because tech has simply become a necessity for staying competitive. This means that companies that might once have seemed mundane or unappealing 1) can use tech to modernize their operations (like a plumbing company using the latest technology to complete jobs more effectively) and 2) can use tech to easily reach the eyes of more investors (a pest control company might create a flashy social media campaign).)Deneyimli ve disiplinli bir müşterek bahisçi için atlar üzerine bahse girmek gayet güvenli bir uzun vadeli yatırım olabilir. Bu, o kişi için yatırım fonlarına para yatırmak ya da General Electric hisse senetleri almak gibi bir şeydir. Öte yandan her duyduğu tüyoya atılan, gömlek değiştirir gibi portföy değiştiren dikkatsiz ve dağınık bir borsa yatırımcısının” en güzel yeleli ata yada mor pantolonlu jokeye bütün maaşını yatıran bir bahisçiden farkı yoktur." (76) According to Lynch, trying to predict the economy’s performance is a futile task, and that together with the direction of the short-term market are two endeavors that the investor in companies should ignore.

Great writing (clear, concise, and thorough) & great material. Look elsewhere if you are looking to (a) time the market, (b) find the "holy grail" to investing, (c) day trade, and (d) make money fast. Kitabı yazdığı seksenli yıllarda 9 milyar dolara çıkmış bir fonu yönetmiş Peter Lynch, döneminin en çok kazandıran fonlarından birinin yöneticisi olmuş. Tecrübelerini sokaktaki adama bu işin kumar olmad��ğını ve nasıl bir strateji izlenirse başarılı olabileceğini, özellikle kişinin kendi çalıştığı ya da her gün nasıl iş yapıldığını gözlemle fırsatı bulduğu sektörleri seçmesinin yaratacağı avantajlarla birlikte anlatıyor. Genelde çok daha bilinmeyen, moda, son teknolojik, eğlenceli işlere yatırım yapma eğilimi var. Kendimden biliyorum. :) Bunlar yorum kabiliyetini de kısıtlıyor. Zaten -diyelim- bilmiyorsun sektörü, nereye gidecek, ne olacak. Bunun yerine kendin yorumlayabileceğin mümkünse sıkıcı sektörlere bir yönlendirme...

Personally, for me, I put in minimally four hours a day to just read up on companies and find potential investments. Sometimes there are inefficiencies in the holdings relationships. e.g. A holds 25% of B, but B's value alone is more than A market cap, then you can buy A. Lynch generally buys for 30% to 50% gain, then sells and repeats the process with similar issues that haven't yet appreciated.

Pension plans: these are obligations the companies agree to pay; therefore, they should be seen as debt. Pay attention specifically to it on turnarounds. Lynch provides the example of the couple that spends the weekend looking for the cheapest airfare to fly to London but does not pay thought at all when investing a large part of their savings in KLM shares. No new products being developed, spending on research and development is curtailed, i.e. the company is resting on its laurels. Sales and profits rise and fall in regular if not completely predictable fashion. For example, automobile, airlines, tire, steel, chemical, etcShortform note: Lynch advises reviewing a company’s assets and liabilities but doesn’t provide a formal definition of these. Assets are resources or goods a company can use to reduce expenses, generate cash, or provide future economic benefits. For instance, your car is a personal asset because you can sell it to generate cash. A patent might be an asset for a company because it provides future economic benefits. Liabilities, on the other hand, are financial obligations to other parties. These include loans, mortgages, accounts payable, deferred revenues, and more. For instance, a company’s payroll is a liability: It’s money it owes its employees.) Dividends Cost reduction: can the company reduce the cost of materials, the cost of labor, or the fixed costs incurred each year?
