Jim, enjoy reading your financial musings…I was also exploring other Web musings, and came across Benjamin Graham’s principles, and I think they apply to all aspects of investing, even in foreign stocks. Here are seven of his principles on buying stocks that I believe are worth hearing sharing:
1. The companies should be soundly managed.
2. The companies have demonstrated earning capacity with a likelihood that this will continue.
3. The companies should have consistently high returns.
4. The companies should have a prudent approach to debt.
5. The businesses of the companies should be simple and investors should have an understanding of the companies.
6. Assuming that all these thresholds are satisfied, the investment should only be made at a reasonable price, with a margin of safety.
These principles align with our ideals at Stillwater Capital of providing the potential for clients to preserve and grow their capital using a risk-controlled approach to investing.
Thanks for listening! — Jack Doueck
