THE WORST INVESTING STYLE !!

GOOD business to a GREAT business is a money-making journey. This is when they have comparative advantages, a large runway of growth and generate superior returns for shareholders through a mix of earnings and multiple expansion. Most businesses, once they become GREAT also trade at GREAT Multiples and …then they falter, become too big to grow, valuations surpass reality, competition kicks in or they are disrupted etc. Our job as investors is ALSO to avoid such painful pitfalls of Great businesses becoming Good businesses.
That's why getting rich and staying rich are both important. Making money and preserving that money that was made and growing it....
Buying high-quality stocks at very high entry valuations can indeed lead to subpar returns over the long term. While it may be tempting to invest in companies that are currently in high demand and commanding lofty valuations, it's essential to consider the fundamental principles of investing. The price you pay for a stock matters because it determines your potential return on investment.
When you buy stocks at high valuations, you are essentially paying a premium for future growth expectations. The market has already priced in the anticipated success of the company, leaving little room for additional gains. As a result, even if the company continues to perform well, the stock price may not increase at a pace that justifies the initial investment.
Over time, the market tends to correct itself, and companies that were once overvalued may experience a decline in their stock prices. This correction can be triggered by various factors such as changes in industry dynamics, economic conditions, or investor sentiment. When the correction occurs, the inflated valuations can quickly revert to more reasonable levels, leading to losses for those who bought at high entry valuations.
Moreover, high valuations can create unrealistic expectations. Investors often expect a company's growth trajectory to continue indefinitely, ignoring the cyclical nature of business and market cycles. Companies face challenges and setbacks, and buying at high valuations amplifies the risk of disappointment if the company fails to meet or exceed those inflated expectations.
To achieve favorable long-term returns, investors should focus on buying stocks with a reasonable valuation relative to their growth prospects and intrinsic value. It's crucial to consider the company's financial health, competitive positioning, industry trends, and future growth potential. By investing in high-quality stocks at reasonable prices, investors can increase the probability of generating superior returns over the long term while minimizing the risk of significant losses during market corrections.

After my MBA and CFA I started to disbelieve fundamentals looking at the recent movement in overvalued stocks getting only more overvalued. Your video has helped in establish that clarity in fundamentals again. Thanks!

[@OptionSwami]

Wow!! Ajaybhai, your G2G series is absolutely mind blowing for all serious investors ... it just keeps getting better with every chapter ... Thank you very much for sharing your "Pudiyas" that you have accumulated over multiple decades of market studies ... I am a portfolio manager running a family/friends fund primarily in the US since 2010 🙏 A special thanks to Vivekbhai for introducing you to us and more so for inspiring you to open up your mind map for serious investors to successfully navigate the rough waters market 🙏

[@Vsbkt]

Yes, Vivek bhai ko dhanyawaad

[@abhishekmalhotra9415]

BUT 1 VERY IMPORTANT OBSERVATION I HAD: Always see that "Industry leader" will always enjoy a better/rich valuation than 2nd, 3rd and so on players... For Instance, Take IT Sector TCS enjoys rich valuations than Infy. Take Paints Industry - Here Asian Paints enjoys rich valuations than Berger... And In Renewables - Adani will enjoy rich valuations... What I understand from these observations is that somewhere or other Industry leader enjoys better premium multiple than benchmark Industry PE. So do we say that Asian is expensive and now let's take berger or so...? What's your take on this Ajay Sir ?

Ohhh Sir Awesome ! After 2 years I have got the clean explanation at what price should a new small investor should entry into market. also I am from Kolkata Sir. I respect your true initiative to taught new investors. Sir one Query - How to identify a good business and Great business. I have seen the video good to great [G2G] but as per technical point of view like Quantitively and Qualitatively how we can segregate good business and great business. Is it difficult to identify one business Qualitatively ? how we can do it? if you can prepare any 2by2 for it that will be great for new learners.

[@Prashantum]

Hi Ajay Ji, Great work for retail investors, it will really help us to find a good stocks. My suggestion is you should write a book on stock picking process. Thanks and regards. Prashant

[@mehra7690]

BUT sir is this valid for small or micro caps or businesses those just turned around...? I think small businesses doesn't hold good for this concept. Sir kindly correct me if I am wrong

[@G2GAjaySharma]

Mehra ji, this applies to any business irrespective of size, micro, small. large , mega. If you buy 10 paisa for 15 paisa, or 1 Rupee for 1.20 or 100 Rs for 120 Rs or 100 cr for 120 cr, you will lose money.

[@G2GAjaySharma]

I have used PE just as one valuation parameter to explain the concept. For turnarounds, short term PE will look very high. To keep it simple, you can look at P/Sales or PE 3 years out

Thanks sir ji 😊❤

Sir but todays time of liquidity it is very tough to find low pe stocks and I think larg caps are trading at good valuations
