Key Learnings from one of the best Investing Letters that I have read this year from @rohitchauhan

Time for a thread with SOIC Key Takeaways 🧵🧵🧵🧵

 First Key Learning:

The first is the importance of getting the trend and its timing right. No business does well in isolation, it is a part of a much bigger trend. For eg:In sectors like API/CDMO/Chemicals, many businesses have created wealth. As they are going through tailwinds
Thus,It becomes important to identify long-term trends like manufacturing, Financialization of saving, or Formalization of sector (think PVC/CPVC Pipes) and to be patient. Long-term trends keep offering opportunities. Just think about it- if its truly long term, then the
Opportunity will exist for a long period of time no?

Second Key Learning:

Look at Valuation in a broader context and not in isolation. When a sector catches fancy of the markets, and earnings growth is strong in the entire sector. Most of the time, markets start discounting
the earnings and reward the business with a high multiple. As long as the trend holds and management is executing, one should hold the stock and be tolerant of higher valuations 💯💯💯
Third Key Learning: Boredom is the enemy

Unlike cyclical stocks,, timing the purchase is not critical. Most of these trends last for a long time. Betting on the right management and holding through periods where the business keeps moving forward, but the stock price remains
stagnant is the key. This reminds me of Pi Industries and Syngene. Pi went through a stagnant period between 2016-2018 and Syngene is going through one right now. Given the trends last for a long period, it is okay to hold through and to reap the rewards as markets are non-linear
You will make returns in phases. This is a hallmark of long-term investing.
Fourth Key Learning: Diversification is not just about position size, but also the underlying economic drivers behind each company. Suppose if you own a Building Material co and a Real estate company. The underlying economic drivers remain the same. If you are looking to
diversify properly. Then even the underlying economic drivers of the business have to be different. An example that comes to mind is Navin Fluorine and Prince Pipes. Both the businesses have different underlying economic drivers, which leads to proper diversification.
Last Key Learning: Simplicity is the key

"When I started investing, I thought there is some magic formulae to grow your capital. After 10 years of search, I realized that the answer was staring me in the face.
The key to wealth creation was very simple – Save aggressively and invest patiently." - @rohitchauhan

Why Reading and observing different trends matter.

Time for a thread with a live example that is playing out in front of us! 🎵🎵

🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵

“What is elementary, worldly wisdom? Well, the first rule is that you can’t really know anything if you just remember isolated facts and try and bang ‘em back. If the facts don’t hang together on a latticework of theory, you don’t have them in a usable form.”- Charlie Munger

Charlie Munger who is the partner of Warren Buffett, has over the years explained the importance of creating a latticework of mental models. That is basically combining theory with live practical examples


One of the most interesting mental models he talked about in his books was that of Autocatalysis (lets understand this and how we can apply it to a live example):

"Disney is an amazing example of autocatalysis. They had all those movies in the can.

They owned the copyright. And just as Coke could prosper while refrigeration came, When the video cassette was invented, Disney didn’t have to invent anything or do anything except take the thing out of the can and stick it on the cassette.

Six key learnings from a friend/mentor in investing:-

1. Investing is a game of probabilities and not possibilities.

2. Sizing is the most important decision that you make.

3. Being a generalist and learning from sectoral experts is fun.

4. Identify the key variables

And learn how to probabilistically see how these variables move in the future.

5. Benchmark companies within a sector and then see which one is doing what, it will sooner or later reflect in financials.

6. Network as much as you can. Network is the modern day networth.

The Basics of a Cash Flow Statement explained from scratch 🏧🎰🧮

In this thread we will talk about -

1. How Cash flow statement is made?
2. What is CFO,CFI and CFF?
3. Why is CFO/Ebitda important?
4. Finally, we will talk about Free Cash flow statement

Retweet for max reach!


A Cash flow statement shows inflow and outflow of cash and cash equivalents from various activities of a company during a particular period.

The net cash flow at the end of the year tells us about the movement of cash on the balance sheet.

Why is cash flow important? ⤵️

Companies maintain books of accounts as per accrual principle, that means we book revenue or expense as and when it is incurred.

Let's say we make sales of 10,000 so we will record it as when sale is completed and prepare P&L accordingly, here it doesn't matter whether cash is received or not.

Cash flow helps us in knowing whether that 10,000 has been received in cash or not.

For Example:- There are 2 companies selling T-shirts and doing the following transactions:

What a privilege it was to host @Gautam__Baid for my first ever Twitter Spaces event along with @dadalife369 and @Finvents.

While we wait for the YouTube recording. Here are 8 of my biggest takeaways from today's session.

#investing

1 - Start by coming up with a portfolio allocation strategy based on your aims and objectives for investing. Include flexibility, tracking and rebalancing as part of your strategy.


2 - Learn from those who succeeded before you to ultimately develop your own investing style

Here are three books that influence @Gautam__Baid's investing style - They are some of the best books in investing along with Gautam's The Joys of Compounding.


3 - Develop a robust repository of sources from which you can generate investment ideas.

Here are the ones @Gautam__Baid uses.

It is a super-comprehensive list.


4 - Focus on the process as opposed to the outcomes. This is very important.

Developing a superior process leads to the repeatability of exceptional outcomes.

I have seen plenty of Buffettology on Twitter and in other places over the past few years. Its time to clear the air and understand that there wasn't one but 3 different Warren Buffett's that existed throughout his career 📚📚

Time for a thread: 3 Different Buffett's 🧵🧵🧵


One of the biggest mistakes that you as an investor can make is to forget the basic and the most important mental model an investor can have: Numeracy. Being fluent with numbers and respecting the context in which Buffett made his returns.

At the beginning of his career, let's call this Warren Buffett 1 i.e. Between 1957-1968. This was the time when he was working with small sums of money. He was extremely valuation conscious and guess what. How many stocks did he buy and sell between this period?

In this period, he bought and sold nearly 400 stocks. He bought Geico and sold it within 18months, he bought Marshals wealth at a PE of 3 times and he bought Commonwealth at a PE of 5times and sold it at a 60% gain. His returns were mind-boggling too during this time period

No Wonder he said, “The highest rates of return I’ve ever achieved were in the 1950s. I killed the Dow. You ought to see the numbers… I think I could make you 50% a year on $1 million. No, I know I could. I guarantee that.” Look at the performance once

Li Lu is a well-known Superinvestor who has achieved a compounded annual return of about 30% since 1998.

He is also known for managing the money of his good friend Charlie Munger.

Today, he turns 56 years old, and on this occasion, here is some of his timeless wisdom👇🏼


1. Why Value Investing Works

The market isn’t created for value investors.

It is built in a way that increases the urge to speculate.

That’s why businesses are so often misprized in the short term.

Value investors can benefit from this circumstance.

2. Understand Who You Are

You’ll be more interested in some industries/topics than in others.

And in investing, you can choose in what industries you’ll look for opportunities.

Investors should use this advantage and be sure about their circle of competence.

3. Be a Journalist

Being an investor is a lot like being a research journalist.

You have to dig into the company on a level that journalists do when they research their stories.

You also need to clearly articulate your thesis and research and bring it to paper.

4. Find the Truth

A journalist also has to find the truth before he publishes a story.

Same goes for an investor. It could be fatal if he makes a decision before he knows “the truth” about a company.

Thus, he has to avoid all sorts of biases and misleading influences.

SRI CHAMPAKADHAMA SWAMY, BANNERGHATTA HILL, BENGALURU (KAR)
#bharatmandir

The shrine is dedicated to Sri Vishnu along with Devi Lakshmi and Bhoodevi.
It is built in an area full of Champaka trees.
As champaka flowers are offered to Sri Vishnu here, it is called Champakadhama.


It is believed that King Janmejaya had sarpa-dosha. To get rid of it, he took bath in the nearby pond. He emerged with a golden body and sarpa-dosha was also removed. The pond is called Swarnamukhi and believed to have curative powers.
Sri Vishnu murti was consecrated by him.


It is also believed that this forest area was the Dandakaranya where Sri Ram stayed in exile.
Some believe that the original shrine was built by Pandavas.
The pushkarni/pond is emptied once a year so that the rock at the bottom (which has image of Anjaneya) may be worshipped.

Benefits of writing SRI RAMA Jayam!!!

Writing Sri Rama Jayam is known as Likitha Japam- Writing Meditation. This gives one a complete sense of surrender to an inner conscience and peace while writing or chanting the mantras.

#Sri_Rama_Jayam #RamaNavami

Cont 👇

You can write this in any language of your choice. It is the connecting chords with the divine and your inner self.

Below are some points that we came across on the benefits :

Cont 👇

1. Vedas tell that as the sun dispels the darkness, the chanting of Rama Nama dispels all evil and obstacles of life. It is a way of liberation and salvation of human suffering.

2. When you think, that all roads are blocked to walk away from day to day problems..

Cont 👇

writing ‘Sri Ram Ram Ram’ gives you the most needed clarity of thoughts to find away out of odd situations.

3. It was told that a calmness engulfs as one indulges in writing the Sri Rama Jayam bringing in more clarity of mind, tolerance & strength to withstand obstacles in life.

4. Devotion of service of life and its varied forms is devotion to God. So there is no right or wrong way of writing this. The very thought and process to write is a connection with god and finds a inner meaning.

AGAMA SHASTRA:THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE MARVELS OF HINDU ARCHITECTURE

Agama Shastra is a Sanskrit word that means the manual for worship, temple building, rituals etc in Hindu Tradition.From Sanskrit,agama means handed down by tradition and Shastra means a commentary or treatise.


Therefore, Agama Shastra is a collection of ideas that drafts the rules for worship, temple construction, spirituality and rituals. It has been a guideline for many Hindus from ancient times. It's a collection of Sanskrit, Tamil and Grantha scriptures that mostly contains...


...methods of temple construction, idol creation, philosophical doctrines and meditative practices. It came into being after years of assimiliation and from a variety of sources. Some parts of it are pre-vedic while some are post-vedic.


Hindu Temples are not just temples, they are the pride and identity of Hindus. They are the symbols of Hindu unity and their religious aspirations. Temples are the places of spiritual healing and are our connection with the creator almighty.


Temples are the priceless treasure of our History, Heritage ,Art & Architecture. Architecture that mesmerises and spell bounds you. And Agama Shastra is that very text which is responsible for such a mesmerising and spell binding quality and beauty of our Hindu Temples.
