Great value investor Joel Greenblatt reveals his two secrets to investment success. He is living proof that active management can still work really well. Greenblatt is Managing Principal and Co-Chief Investment Officer of Gotham Asset Management where he co-manages hedge funds and several hedge fund-like mutual funds utilizing long/short strategies. His behavioral insight that the best investment strategy is one that both makes sense and that you can stick with.
The proposition that active management still works can be made on a case by case basis in the highly competitive stock mutual fund business, but it doesn’t hold up in general. In Greenblatt’s opinion: the investment flows to passive will continue, but there is a silver lining to this trend, which he will explain.

" If you are focused on 3-4 years from now you are alone"- Pure Gold

He used to say "if you do good valuation work, it may take 2-3 years for the market to agree with you."

[@jimjackson4256]

That is right but who can see out 3 or 4 years or even 1 year?

[@hheythered]

Joel is so easy to understand. I would love to take his class.

[@christopherdennis4280]

By far the fastest talking guest you've ever had.

[@user-wz8ol2dp9o]

any subtitles? other videos include subtitles but this one doesn't...

[@akashcast]

20:47 onwards is the best part !

[@cryptogoth]

Great interview questions, and as always Joel is entertaining and insightful.

Hello

[@jimjackson4256]

Why not put a date on these interviews ?

[@stchew49]

Jim Jackson - Fully agreed! For me, undated interviews have no relevance and should be distrusted from the word 'Go!'

4:10. This guy has sense of humor

[@bgates275]

Speaking of behavioral finance, does anyone else find it humorous that a credit rating firm, with the name Moody's, exists? I sure hope their analytics arn't based on emotion.

[@Demonicranga]

awesome

I read that big secret book with in 4 hours

8:00 talks about Houston Astros. Author was tipped off on high -tech cheating scheme.

I feel like the new value investing is actually being able to create discounted cash flow models for high growth companies better than most

[@ericguo8209]

Is he just a Buffett proxy?

[@Erikpdx]

He's more active in his trading, and shorts overpriced stocks. Although they both look at stocks from a value evaluation perspective

[@cryptogoth]

Greenblatt has had success with formulaic / algorithmic passive investing, like inverting the S&P500 weighting by market cap, or combining index with long bets for undervalued stocks and short bets for overvalued stocks, according to their proprietary intrinsic value calculation. He also does special situations (mergers, splits, etc.) You can do worse than just copying Buffett (like Pabrai), but you have to read 50 years of annual letters to even figure out what copying would mean. Mostly it's buying wonderful businesses at a discount, buying whole businesses, occasional arbitrage, and generating float cheaply (from insurance premiums) to reinvest.

[@Partytime60]

I gave the 999th like to is video.... What about u???

[@y.r.9401]

Where can I put my money and let it grow at 18% or even at 4% now!

[@hheythered]

NYMT has a 13% a year dividend yield.

[@cryptogoth]

If you do a discounted cashflow calculation for good growing businesses, you can still find some at 20% discount to their intrinsic value. It may take 2-5 years for market to agree with you. Oaktree preferreds give 6.5% dividend until maturity.

[@vivekkumarsingh1309]

My life has totally changed since I started an investment of $60,000 and now earning over $57,000.

[@vivekkumarsingh1309]

To be financially free with a passive income source which exceeds your expenses, you need to invest . It's not just watching videos and reading investment books anymore but for positive results, work with an expert. I use to think I can make more money investing on my own without any loss, but I had better luck working with a financial advisor I'm glad I chose to work with Wilson dric and I have no regrets with my decision

[@yomynameismit]

expense ratio > 3% ??? Goodbye!

[@wisemanstudio]

Wait ... he charges 3%. lol.

[@CaspersCuts]

No, watch 22:00 he addresses that. It's really 1.15%.

[@yomynameismit]

@@CaspersCuts read the actual prospectus.. its north of 3%

[@CaspersCuts]

@@yomynameismit Did you watch the explanation for that at 22:00? 3% includes dividends paid on his short book but is not offset by the dividends on his levered long book (which makes no sense given the fund runs 280% gross, with about 190% long and 90% short).

[@somchai9033]

You clearly didn’t listen

[@amatuer2]

Just buy the S&P ... the rest is just smoke and mirrors .

[@Erikpdx]

That's easier to say when it's going up

[@amatuer2]

Erik F overtime it always goes up

[@Erikpdx]

@@amatuer2 not between 2000-2013... There was no gain

[@cryptogoth]

@@Erikpdx Nice catch, if you invested all at the beginning, you're right. Most people dollar cost average over time into Sp500 so they still had a positive gain during the bear years. if you want to ride with the GOAT tho, BRK.B had a better gain from 2000-2013.
