Good podcast.

I think the questions should be - what exactly is a "winner" and how do you define a "winner"?

Sadly 99.9% of investors believe that a winner is something you buy and it immediately goes up a lot in price, then you sell it..

Whereas i believe a winner is a company that has a proven track record and has been around a very long time like in TSCO for example that is over 100 yrs old. In some years the share price will fall in these great companies but held over very long periods of time they will only make you money..

Just finished an AGM InvestorMeet with MPE. I wish all companies would do more hybrid AGM's for those who want to attend or online..

The company is so old school. Oak pannelled walls with trophies around the room. It's 2024 but could easily be 1924..

Many of the investors have held for decades and are predominantely older with many in their 80's and some 90's. Everyone known on first name terms. Even the Indonesian directors where there plus the Indonesian major shareholders. This company really does go over and above for shareholder friendliness and appreciates all it's shareholders immensely.

I don't get why some folks bang on about the 200 day moving average and base their investment case on that.

Too me these people should be classed as long term traders not investors, when you make an investment case just on a wiggly line, you have got to be a trader...

If you are lucky enough to have a seven figure plus value portfolio then common sense dictates that you are naturally a long term investor either by choice or by default..

The reason is because of liquidity. Why then do all these high profile media investors say they hold 10 - 15 stocks and then claim to be able to buy and sell out of them whenever they want to? I would take what they say with a very large pinch of salt. Either they don't have seven figure portfolios like they claim or they only put relatively small amounts into these small-caps (so they can easily sell them) which means if they do double in value or whatever it is pretty meaningless.

An example of a seven figure portfolio holding 15 stocks equally weighted gives just over £66k in each holding. Many small-cap stocks (even quite large market cap) you would not be able to easily buy that many or certainly sell that much all in one go. Even if you were able you would move the price each time against you and i know this from experience myself.

Even Lord Lee admits that his holdings in TET and ANP are so large that he cannot sell, he is only able to trim a few if he so wished.

HL are stopping some individual investors buying certain stocks because they haven't completed an assessment with some stocks but your still allowed to hold or sell them. Some investors on the SHED forum are complaining about it. Surely on a self assessment platform you make your own decisions what you want to buy can sell

Av is currently down, when it should be up over 5%. Investors are obsessed with round numbers, there isn't a big difference between £4.99 and £5 but in Investors mind their is a massive difference..

There will always be afew investors that constantly sell out when we get a nasty global event. The thing is your never going to get perfect investing conditions, so these nervous investors will be constantly buying and selling every few months.your never going to make much money, when your constantly in and out the market..

Just listened to the IC interview with Daniel Peris. Absolutely fantastic, thanks igoe104 for posting..

Mr Peris is more a historian than a fund manager but what he had to say really struck a chord with what i've been making the case here for a while now.

He looked at 5000 years of US corporate history and concludes that the last 30 years of the US stock market is an anomaly.(an anomaly in the sense that big tech stocks have not paid any dividend and investors have solely relied on capital gains).

He was basically making the case that investors sooner or later expect an income and that should be through dividends. It always has been in the past as capital gains cannot go on for ever.

He called it "very strange" that in order to make money in companies that didnt pay dividends investors expected the share price to rise so they could take profits. But if you think about it, it doesn't make any sense to sell an asset so you can pay yourself. Throughout history the only longevity in wealth creation is to own assets constantly, which produce an income that you continue to take as your profits..

It's well known that both professional/institutional and retail investors based in the UK are mostly leaving the UK market in droves, many to invest over-seas which is mainly in the US.

However, it's very interesting to note that now over half the share register here in the UK is over-seas investors which is mainly made-up of the US. DGE for instance has 45% of it's shares owned by US based investors one of those of course is Warren Buffet.

So as UK investors are investing in the US, the US are investing in the UK Lol..
