5 Competitive Advantages in Investing | Phil Town

[@BelajarSaham]

1. Brand moat 2. Price moat 3. Secret moat 4. Toll bridge moat 5. Switching moat Coca cola, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Facebook, Pharmacy industries

[@jfjsas07]

The issue to be careful about with the "upholding investment values" and for example not buying in Walmart, is that it's not just "I prefer to pay a little more and buy at Joe's retail's", because the difference is usually much more than just "a little", often a considerable percentage of the total price. It's also much easier to say it for a millionaire, paying 3 dollars more for some product and upholding a belief in small convenience stores is then not a problem whatsoever, but for ordinary people, if they started to do it this way, their monthly expenses would often skyrocket.

Thank you for your generous advice Mr. Phil

[@indablack3807]

Thank you so much. You gave such great examples on competitive advantages.

[@platoscavealum902]

Very high quality content! Thank you.

Mr. Towns do you think Amazon stock will split someday? Thanks

[@PhilTownRule1Investing]

We'll see, but if it does eventually split, the web services side of Amazon is going to be huge!

[@CaptainCovaOfficial]

Can you both please explain what the hell amazon stock split would mean to Rule1 investors and why it would be a great opportunity in web services🧐😲🤷🏻‍♂️👂👂👂

[@pamelagroves2142]

Very informative & easy enough to understand.

[@CliftonMaurer]

Speaking of PG&E and their mote, and the announcement by the governor today. It seems to me like they are on sale, do you have any specific thoughts? Given how vital their service is I feel like either the government is gonna have to bail them out or someones is gonna have to buy them out. I'm trying to decide whether or not to "load up the truck".

[@keith2754]

Thank you Phil. It helps get my head around what a MOAT is in practical terms.

[@chuckmartin935]

So Phil you mentioned railroads- what do you think about CSX? I've owned it for a bout 1.5 years and it's done nothing except chop out sideways twixt 65 and 77. Should I sell it? Will they ever be as strong as Union Pacific? I never thought to ask or research how much track they own? It's hard to find out their routes.

[@ViburaBlanca]

Chuck martin I used to work for UP, All of the railroads are doing a PSR system. Laying off employees (like me) cutting corners, bigger trains. However all that saving is boosting profits for short term gain. UP is on a tear right now, it would be great to invest in them right now, just be cautious, because they are unethical, and will runaway with your investment if shit hits the fan.

[@InvestingEducation]

Moats or competitive advantages are probably the most impt factor to consider for me

[@jensenjjacob]

Thank you Sir ! I'm from India and the best part is your advices apply globally. Doing a great job !!

[@surendrashekhawat4155]

Jensen Joji Jacob : you investing during corona pandemic times?

[@jensenjjacob]

@@surendrashekhawat4155 Yes absolutely. Although I was fully invested before the pandemic so now I just need to hold on to my investments 😊 What about you ?

[@surendrashekhawat4155]

Jensen Joji Jacob jus been buying fractional shares as the market dips but it’s crazy tho how the stock market is still up even when the economy is crashing N unemployment rates are rising & ovi it would be stupid to time the market but I think corona goin nowhere till Nxt 3months tho

Thanks Unc

[@sven7736]

Thank you for putting together this list, it's very helpful.

[@henrymichal8522]

adding some extra layers to your analysis. I like this.

[@angelamiller2174]

The best advice Mr. Town. Enjoy your video as always, Thanks

[@saywhatsaywhat]

Great Video very informative & I appreciate your explanations/examples! I agree with your Wmt opinion. I whether go to my local union supported supermarket rather than save a few dollars at Wmt. Thanks

[@AK-kr3uy]

talking about microsoft's switching moat, i noticed that macbook tho...

[@investingwithian5704]

Good information thank you.

[@shreyaslahoti7542]

A fantastic lesson!

[@Mooreeezy]

It's crazy to me how much game Phil is giving us but there's only 34k views

[@diafaradrame9823]

Thank you Phil for this is video. To be honest with you I still need more explanations cuz it’s very important in investment and I can’t get it right.

[@PhilTownRule1Investing]

Thank you for watching, Diafara! One of the most difficult aspects of investing is knowing exactly how to value a business and figuring out if a stock is at a good price to buy. These calculators take the guesswork out of investing on your own: bit.ly/RuleOneCalculators

[@mihaimunteanu6741]

For me competitive advantage has significance only if the law is observed. In the case the law is not observed the competitive advantage doesn't matter really.

[@mikecole1664]

Really clear. Thanks 😁😷

[@marianadavila323]

Another great video!

[@mirzalfuadi2059]

Tks mr. Phill so much

[@freefoodsss]

This was a good video. More like this please.

[@ionkayak1948]

Thank you very much, Mr Town!

[@earlgrey9067]

much obliged, sir

[@platoscavealum902]

👍 Thank you.

[@fundin3539]

Thank you phil for this amazing video which was easily understandable! In my opinion, AMD is threathening Intel's moat. AMD is developing the chip industry with its new techonology. Their processor's are topping Intel's in overall performance. I think Intel's influence is heavy on the market still (brand moat mostly), but I think AMD is soon ready to break that and take the top spot on the chip industry! I will be following AMD's stock price with great interest and try to buy it on sale. And once again, thank you Phil for this video!

Good stuff buddy thanks

[@omni1562]

I really like restaurant companies, but i think expect for McDonald's, they don't have a strong moat

[@demetriussmith8904]

what's the meaning of MOAT?

Demetrius Smith a durable competitive advantage

[@nicholastran8257]

Are you still calling for market downturn anytime soon? We have been waiting

[@Godofthemoon1]

You still believe Apple is going to be able keep up?? I’m not so sure I guess we will find out once this new iPhone gets released

[@omni1562]

Either way, they won't go bankrupt, they have a moat :)

[@RemcoAlexanderPhD]

Apple's closed-off ecosystem is actually a big disadvantage in my opinion... E.g. I would never buy their watch because I don't have their phone.

[@GodsWheat]

I just remembered when I was a kid first iPhone was like 299 dollars and now it's over thousand

[@joefunk76]

Adrian Rymann The first iPhone was a useless paperweight whereas the one you use today is probably the single most useful thing you own. The $300 one was the ripoff, not the $1,000 one of today that does everything but butter your breakfast toast.

[@mrshetty2019]

@@joefunk76 still the stock of that company is better to buy than the product 😅

[@GodsWheat]

@@joefunk76 well I had the iPhone 3GS and it was a game changer while most phones that had a touch screen were no better than the non touch screen ones like the games you could play or the speed of tasks getting completed i've never used the 1st iPhone but I remember using old android phones and not being impressed because everything that they could do my old sony ericson could also do but the iPhone 3gs could play youtube at higher quality and load faster

This information would have been more useful 10 years ago. ( :

[@christopherarmstrong2710]

Okay advice but quite shallow. He didn’t mention anything about intellectual property, for instance.

[@liopleurodon155]

Intel's moat is crumbling, though. AMD overtook their chips already.

[@johnschneider7835]

If a company has a moat wouldn't that create a monopoly? Once they had a monopoly they could charge any price they wanted or reduce quality and keep out the free market thereby hurting consumers in the long run

[@InvestingEducation]

Thats the idea in investing

[@johnschneider7835]

putting extra strain on consumers hurts society as a whole which would cause an economic downturn causing suffering for anyone not in the stock market

[@loftysub]

The background and set up of these videos are too influencing ! Please return here soon. The current setup is not appealing. Also you be alone in your videos. Don’t talk to anybody as you have a very very very charisma that fades away when people of one 100th qualities hijack your videos.

[@mrmiteva]

Lol..no mote stands for ever..Intel..boom! Microsoft...boom! Boeing...kaboom..no mote lasts for ever.

[@pyroteamalpha5931]

how about Nokia, MySpace, Abercrombie&Fitch, Macy's... nothing is guaranteed.

[@kirkclements4893]

Boeing has triple digit ROE and ROIC and grows retained earnings at 11% and operates in a duopoly - sure looks like a strong moat. MSFT has gross margins over 60% and operating margins over 40% with retained earnings growing 14% - sure looks like a strong moat. I think your understanding of moats is a little off.
