  • IFB371: Warren Buffett's 4 Investment Filters - A Beginner's Guide
    Dec 23 2024
    Warren Buffett’s investment philosophy revolves around four key filters: understanding the business, favorable growth prospects, trustworthy management, and a sensible price. These filters help investors identify good, great, or gruesome businesses. In this episode, we break down Buffett’s criteria, share examples, and discuss how to apply these principles to your investment strategy. [00:00:50] Buffett’s filters identify good, great, or gruesome businesses effectively. [00:01:33] The four filters: understand business, growth, management, sensible price. [00:02:12] Understanding the business is crucial for long-term investment success. [00:03:43] Lack of understanding leads to panic during market downturns. [00:06:00] Some businesses are too complex; avoid what you can’t understand. [00:08:06] Trustworthy management is vital; avoid red flags like overcompensation. [00:14:44] Great businesses have strong moats and don’t rely on superstar CEOs. [00:25:08] Gruesome businesses grow fast but burn cash, like Sunrun or Beyond Meat.
