Is. the Graham and Dodd look for values with a significant margin of. Many of the professors who write textbooks today say yes. They argue that the stock market is efficient that is, that stock. There are no undervalued stocks. Investors who seem to beat the market year after year are. If prices fully reflect available information, this. Well. maybe. But I want to present to you a group of investors who have. Standard Poors 5. The hypothesis that they do this by pure chance is at least worth. Crucial to this examination is the fact that these winners. Absent this condition that is, if I had just recently searched. Pinball Hall Of Fame Ps2 Iso Torrent. I would advise you to stop reading right here. I should add that. And I should further add. I have known many of those who have invested with these managers. Before. we begin this examination, I would like you to imagine a national. Lets assume we get 2. Americans. up tomorrow morning and we ask them all to wager a dollar. They. go out in the morning at sunrise, and they all call the flip of. If they call correctly, they win a dollar from those who. Each day the losers drop out, and on the subsequent. After ten flips on ten mornings, there will be approximately 2. United States who have correctly called ten flips. They each will have won a little over 1,0. Now. this group will probably start getting a little puffed up about. They may try to be modest. Assuming. that the winners are getting the appropriate rewards from the losers. By. then, this group will really lose their heads. They will probably. How I turned a Dollar into a Million in Twenty Days. Working Thirty Seconds a Morning. Worse yet, theyll probably start. If it cant be done, why. By. then some business school professor will probably be rude enough. I would. argue, however, that there are some important differences in the. I am going to present. For one thing, if a you had taken. U. S. population. Omaha, you would be pretty. So you would probably go out and. That is, if you found any really extraordinary concentrations of. Scientific. inquiry naturally follows such a pattern. If you were trying to. United States and you found that 4. Montana, you would get very. You know its not random chance that 4. You would not necessarily know the causal factors. I submit. to you that there are ways of defining an origin other than geography. In addition to geographical origins, there can be what I call an. I think you will find that a disproportionate. Hana Yori Dango Drama Sub Ita Games. Graham and Doddsville. A concentration of winners that simply cannot be explained by chance. Conditions. could exist that would make even that concentration unimportant. Perhaps 1. 00 people were simply imitating the coin flipping call. When he called heads, 1. If the leader. was part of the 2. You would simply. Similarly, lets assume. United States conveniently consisted of ten members. Further. assume that the patriarchal culture was so strong that, when the. Now, at the end of the 2. Some naive types might say that this. But, of course, it would have no significance at. In. this group of successful investors that I want to consider, there. Ben Graham. But the children. They have gone to different places. The patriarch has merely set. The. common intellectual theme of the investors from Graham and Doddsville. Essentially, they exploit those discrepancies without. Monday or Thursday, or whether it is January or July. Incidentally, when businessmen buy businesses, which is just. Graham Dodd investors are doing through the purchase. I doubt that many are cranking into their. If it doesnt make any difference. Monday or a Friday. I am baffled why academicians invest extensive time and effort to. Our Graham Dodd investors, needless to say, do. These are not subjects of any interest. In fact, most of them would have difficulty defining those. The investors simply focus on two variables price and value. I always. find it extraordinary that so many studies are made of price and. Can you imagine buying. Of course, the reason a lot of studies are made of these price and. It isnt necessarily because. Once these skills are acquired, it seems. As a friend said, to a man with a hammer, everything looks. I think. the group that we have identified by a common intellectual home. Incidentally, despite all the academic studies. I begin. this study of results by going back to a group of four of us who. Graham Newman Corporation from 1. There. were only four I have not selected these names from among thousands. I offered to go to work at Graham Newman for nothing after I took. Ben Grahams class, but he turned me down as overvalued. He took. this value stuff very seriously After much pestering he finally. There were three partners and four of us as the peasant. All four left between 1. The. first example see Table 1 is that of Walter Schloss. Walter never. went to college, but took a course from Ben Graham at night at the. New York Institute of Finance. Walter left Graham Newman in 1. Here is what Adam. Smith after I told him about Walter wrote about him in Supermoney. He. has no connections or access to useful information. Practically. no one in Wall Street knows him and he is not fed any ideas. He. looks up the numbers in the manuals and sends for the annual reports. In. introducing me to Schloss Warren had also, to my mind, described. He never forgets that he is handling other peoples. He has total integrity and a realistic picture of himself. Money. is real to him and stocks are real and from this flows an attraction. Walter. has diversified enormously, owning well over 1. He knows how to identify securities that sell at considerably less. And thats all he does. He doesnt worry about whether it its January, he doesnt worry. Monday, he doesnt worry about whether its an. He simply says, if a business is worth a dollar and. I can buy it for 4. And. he does it over and over and over again. He owns many more stocks. I do and is far less interested in the underlying nature. I dont seem to have very much influence on Walter. Thats one of his strengths no one has much influence on him. The. second case is Tom Knapp, who also worked at Graham Newman with. Tom was a chemistry major at Princeton before the war when. And then one day. Dave Dodd was giving a night course in investments. Columbia. Tom took it on a noncredit basis, and he got so interested. Microsoft Team Foundation Server Licensing Agency here. Columbia Business School, where he got the MBA degree. He took. Dodds course again, and took Ben Grahams course. Incidentally. 3. 5 years later I called Tom to ascertain some of the facts involved. I found him on the beach again. The only difference is. In. 1. 96. 8, Tom Knapp and Ed Anderson, also a Graham disciple, along with. Tweedy, Browne. Partners, and their investment results appear in Table 2. Tweedy. Browne built that record with very wide diversification. They occasionally. Table. 3 describes the third member of the group who formed Buffett Partnership. The best thing he did was to quit in 1. Since then. in a sense, Berkshire Hathaway has been a continuation of the partnership. There is no single index I can give you that I. Berkshire. But I think that any way you figure it, it has been satisfactory. Table. 4 shows the record of the Sequoia Fund, which is managed by a man. I met in 1. 95. 1 in Ben Grahams class, Bill Ruane. After getting. out of Harvard Business School, he went to Wall Street. Then he. realized that he needed to get a real business education so he came. Bens course at Columbia, where we met in early 1.
