🎯 “𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻 – 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿” Hello World! 📉 𝗔 𝗛𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀: 𝗕𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻 This week marked the end of an era: Warren Buffett — the “Oracle of Omaha” — is stepping down as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway. While I don’t walk around quoting Benjamin Graham or screening for cigar butts daily, my style is more top-down, systematic, multi-asset/multi-style — with a decent splash of value investing in the mix. Let’s just say I appreciate a good bargain, but I don’t mind checking the macro weather first. Like most people in finance with a soul, I’ve studied Buffett. Hard not to — the man’s track record is basically the financial version of a Marvel origin story. Here are 3 timeless lessons from Buffett that have stuck with me. 💡 #3 is especially underrated. 🔍 𝟭) 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 It’s not the only way to make money — but it works because you can hold onto a good business for a long time and let compounding do its thing. The stock price may swing, but the intrinsic value keeps growing. 🧠 “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” – Warren Buffett Many forget: markets are noisy. Fundamentals matter more over time. 📉 𝟮) 𝗗𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗯𝗶𝗴 𝗱𝗿𝗮𝘄𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘀 Buffett once said: 🧠 “If you can’t manage your emotions, you can’t manage money.” And another classic: 🧠 “If you’re not willing to own a stock for 10 years, don’t even think about owning it for 10 minutes.” Berkshire has had multiple 40–50% drawdowns in its history. It didn’t shake him. He stayed focused on business fundamentals, not market noise. 🕵️ 𝟯) 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 — 𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 A recent NYU study found the median investor spends just six minutes researching a stock — and most of that is just staring at the price chart 🤦 Back in the day, Wall Street ran literal boiler rooms — cold-calling people to sell stocks over the phone with flashy pitches and zero substance. Fast forward to now? Same hype, just with slicker apps and influencer thumbnails. Buffett? He was the total opposite. 📦 He ordered printed annual reports by mail 📖 Read every line, ran the numbers by hand 🧠 Made long-term decisions rooted in real business value “The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient.” Today, we’ve got infinite data, AI summaries, dashboards, Reddit, Discords — but the edge isn’t in having more info, it’s in doing the hard work others won’t. Discipline, not access, is where alpha is found. Have discipline!
