• Stress Testing - Bankruptcy Risk?
  • Goal: Survive
  • Stress test businesses not stocks
• Focus on Fundamentals
  • Long-term is where all of the value is at
  • The next 1 or 2 years is only 10-20% of the value most of the time.
• War somewhere is not inherently a crisis for your portfolio
  • Are your specific businesses being affected?
  • Land war in your country?
  • Destruction of infrastructure owned by your companies?
  • Sanctions against your companies?
  • There has been almost constant war for the entirety of the last 100 years somewhere in the world
• Doomsday Scenarios
  • It is usually worth betting on optimistic outcomes
  • If you're wrong, you likely won't be around to deal with it. (Nuclear war)

The Russian Invasion of Ukraine has created a situation where three crisis grip the world: War, Inflation, and COVID-19. How should investors think and act during such a crisis?

Stress test your portfolio. Focus on the Fundamentals. Does the war affect you directly? Avoid doomsday thinking.
