I periodically watch this video, just to recalibrate my mind to de-emphasize the valuation mindset and focus on the anti-fragile aspects of the investment. Pure gold, thanks Brians...

[@helbertleonelnunezperez8186]

Wow. Super super wow!!! Thank you so much guys. It's kinda funny: I found your channel just a couple of days ago; however, over the years, I've gathered all this wisdom from the original sources: Taleb's Incerto, Chris' 100 baggers, Munger's almanack and speeches, etc; and made my own checklist (not so different from yours). It's really amazing to come across this magnificent channel, and particularly this absolutely outstanding video that summarizes all this world-class knowledge in 30 minutes (as the other video explaining the checklist), and realize that there are more experienced and seasoned investors that have followed the same principles many years to date. I have no words to describe all my appreciation. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you Brians!!! ✌🏻👏🏻🍀

If you do not do valuation, how do you know at which price to buy then?

[@LionRoarTeaching]

I believe from the beginning of the theology of Warren buffet was not centered on valuation. It was on MOAT. Valuation is only useful for understanding margin. A famous quote from Warren buffet is "it's better to buy a wonderful company for a fair price than a wonderful price for a fair price". The focus is to first find a wonderful business that you understand with a good business model and wonderful management, it's after all that, that you look to valuation, to understand how much you are willing to pay for the company.

[@ItsBossGaming]

EASILY one of the most profound videos on valuation in the tech/digital age… didn’t know I needed this to reaffirm my own approach. Guess the conclusion is “optionality in stock markets”

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

Appreciate that!

[@TheSamto]

Great video, totally agreed. Why value investing is out is because great growth companies grow at only 10-20% in old days. But thanks for technology now great growth companies grow at 50-100%. It can easily "grow into" the high valuation

[@myaparker]

Love this video and loved the point about how when not focusing too much on valuation in your videos whenever someone watches an older video they can still learn something valuable. In my case this has been true when watching some of you guys older content. Like your video on Airbnb

[@TheRealDaveATL]

Great, next-level thinking in this video. Mediocristan, Extremistan, the fractal nature of investing...this is why the Brians are my investing Sherpas. Investing SHOULD be about buying great BUSINESSES. Period. That said, I side more with Brian F on this one: Must be a great business, but valuation does matter. Some. The Nifty Fifty were the great, can't miss, buy at any price businesses of the sixties and seventies. Microsoft, Cisco, Exxon, GE and Intel were the great, can't miss FANG stocks of the turn of the century. In either case, you would have underperformed the market. Great growth companies CAN be had at reasonable valuations. Examples from my own portfolio: AMZN, PYPL, SQ, FTNT, Z, GOOGL, CRM, WDAY, AXON, ZNGA and FB. All are growing revenue at 20%-plus; all can be had for EV/sales of 15 or less. I have no problem paying higher multiples, but when I do I have to feel really, really good that they're going to rack up outlier-sized revenue gains for many years (and that's really, really hard to predict). My best advice: The higher multiple you pay, the more hours of research you should do. Also, don't buy ANYTHING that doesn't score well with the Brians ;-)

[@TheRealDaveATL]

PS: love the pensive-Feroldi-pose cover photo. When is Stoffel going to mix up his pose? Just kidding. Don't care. Focus on companies, please.

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

"The higher multiple you pay, the more hours of research you should do." Love that!

[@davidgardner4787]

Valuation is still incredibly important. I don't agree with most of this. But I'm a big fan of your other stuff.

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

Fair enough -- these are our thoughts. Feel free to disagree!

Love the content, and I get what you are saying, what i struggle with is not knowing if you are paying a eye watering high valuation and then seeing stock go down or sideways for the next 5 years, when you could have waited for a more fairly valued entry point (and of cause you risk never entering the stock for the same reason)

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

It's a risk for sure -- the answer will only become obvious in hindsight

[@RussAbbott1]

Excellent video! I love it. The past half year, however, has shown that valuation sometimes matters more to the market than anything else. And, as Keynes famously said, the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent. Two of the worst things about periods like this are (a) one wonders whether things will ever change and (b) one wonders whether your initial thesis about the company is really right. From an educational perspective, it's very important to talk about (a) how bad one feels during these periods (lots of real emotional pain) and (b) how one deals with this pain and these doubts and concerns as one lives through them.

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

Great comment Russ! Yes, valuations matter A LOT in the short-term. We made this video to show what we've learned about valuations over time and how much nuance there is to valuation.

[@jtrenda333]

I loved this video. Thanks for making it. Such a simple tip to just try and make each subsequent purchase at better and better valuations. Waiting for the perfect valuation may be the biggest mistake we can make as investors. And even if the numbers aren't mathematically better the second time around (say the p/s is about the same), there might be something you learn about a company that makes you like it even more, thus increasing your perceived value, which can be helpful to rely on sometimes.

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

Glad you enjoyed it! Buying at better and better value points isn't easy, but it can be done!

[@liarzdice]

Awesome video! I think Tesla is still dramatically undervalued if you're holding 10+ years. You have to focus on the energy, AI/tech side of what they do and will offer. Even the arbitrage of auto bidder software. I'm putting this on the internet and my prediction is a decade or more from now the story as a car manufacturer will be analogous to what Amazon was as a bookstore. Because they've had to vertically integrate and pioneer various technology and manufacturing processes we will see a AWS type product which will dwarf auto sales. Tesla will be top three largest companies by market cap by 2030 and a lifestyle brand that many rely on in day to day activities. On the other end of that is the likes of Ford and GM, which will either fade away or be aquired over time. These are not value picks nor should the dividend be enticing. They are a parts aggregator and not an actual manufacturer. This will become more evident over time as technology and the need for vertical integration is deeply necessary to maintain margins and still compete. Dealership models will fade away. Service revenue will also decline due to EVs requiring less maintenance. Between Osborne effect of transitioning from ICE to EVs and vestigial assembly lines and ICE engineers they're already facing huge headwinds. I'll probably ruffle a few feathers here but hey, that means I'm taking the path less traveled and my conviction has unwaived since 2018+.

It's possible!

Hi Guys, Great video. Amazing content shared on all your videos actually. Thoroughly enjoying it. A quick question though. May sound too naive as I started investing in individual stocks just last March 2020 downturn by joining motley fool, so many of the same concepts shared there by you 2 and David/Tom etc.. But I am also reading other books trying to find my own journey. One question that comes to mind is whether this method of "no valuation"- has this only worked due to this great bull run we had over last 14yrs? Or really the examples of this "high PE" for quality business has been true for decades? Any sort of data backtesting you have done to build even more conviction in this approach? Thanks

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

That's something to think about -- and we don't have good backtesting data. We reserve the right to be wrong!

[@nikbadshah]

@@BrianFeroldiYT Nope, the Brian's cannot be WRONG!! Haha Fair enough. I think this argument (valuation vs no valuation) will always prevail, doesn't matter what era we speak off. And that's what makes the market. Anyways thanks for the reply and amazing content again. Learning lots through the live stock research from scratch type videos.

[@awami1381]

You can look at the NASDAQ during 2000 for a quick back test. Just count how many companies are above their 2000 peak. Hint: there are not that many However, if you had amazon among 20 other losers, it would have made up for all your losses and more

can you please elaborate about price to sales and to gross profits around what number should it be relative to growth percentage

The answer there is "it depends". The faster the growth, the wider the moat, the larger the opportunity, the better the financials, the more you should pay. When then inverse is true, the less you should pay

Hi Brian, you guys are great teachers and your videos help me a lot. I was thinking that maybe you should add one more subject to the anti-fragile framework. Perhaps one of the most important would be the competence of management, because only a competent and visionary CEO is able to keep a company growing over the years and under any macroeconomic scenario.

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

fantastic content i have never been solely about value. for me a company has to shine, with quality and class, then you may find value, go to 2 stores to buy some Jeans, one sells cheap imports, at a bargain price, --- the other sells Levi, Wrangler, Diesel. etc and it's obvious depending on the store you shop at, you are getting what you pay for, you may wait for the store to go on sale but you're still getting what you pay for.. lots of people buy at bottom prices or the so-called dips. Well, I follow the William O'Neil school of thought, why would I want to buy a stock that drops in price? I invest long term, I want companies that are rock solid that are heading to realms of name branding that will be on peoples lips. yep people will disagree but hey i don't care I'm doing ok with my theory

Great video Brians! TSLA is a classic for me in terms of being unsure on valuation with so much of its growth built in to its price with its 300+ P/E.

Probably when P/Es are positive but at their highest!?

[@JaeLee83]

[@BrianFeroldiYT]

[@DarkKnight9i9]

Interesting video even though I do not agree with you. Valuation matters a lot. If you completely ignore Valuation, you wont know what you will be paying for a business! You gave example of Amazon, but it was as you mentioned an exception. How likely is it that every other company be as good as amazon? If you had bought companies like CISCO and Intel in the peak of DOT com bubble, you will be at a loss till today! You cannot expect every Company to be as good as Amazon. Value investing is not just a few multiples. You need to look at what kind of Returns is the Business generating on its invested capital (ROIC), Returns on Equity, Return on Assets etc Buying a Stock is not about a Ticker symbol or Stock Price, it is about being a Part-Owner of a business. If you buy a Stock at some outrageous Valuation like TESLA currently, and if for some reason the stock falls in half and stays there for the next 10 years, will you be still holding that stock? I dont think so.

I mean it will again differ from each person right? So sometimes one business will seem anti frigile to one person and not to another......

Of course, that's why you need valuations to protect you from overpaying when you are wrong about your assumptions
