Investing In Stocks: The Power of Visionary Leadership

One of my favourite movies is Christmas Story and it has this favorite line, “they looked at me as if I had lobsters crawling out of my ears”. Visionary leaders can take businesses to heights never dreamt of before. Safaricom became profitable in only 3 years of operations, thanks to the vision of Michael Joseph, the company’s first-ever CEO. He took mobile services to the masses with per-second billing, something that we now take for granted.

Visionary leaders can go against all odds and create incredible businesses. When you invest in a business, you are partnering with its leadership and investing in its CEO. It is therefore important to do some research about the company’s CEO and the top management before committing your hard-earned money to the company’s shares.

The last domino to fall. Stocks are now getting the memo that the bond market has been trying to relay. All time lows on the 30 yr UST suggests 2020 global economic growth concerns have been highly underestimated or a serious bond bull trap is in the offing.
The main purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many people as possible.

If this corona virus hits crazy levels outside China, international investors will be withdrawing capital and start scampering for safety. There will be blood on the NSE

Mimi I'll keep on buying until my financial position starts changing negatively since that's the only inheritance I plan to leave for my kids.

‘That’s good for us,’ Buffett says of dropping stocks

As stock futures dropped before Monday’s opening bell, Buffett said “that’s good for us.” “We’re a net buyer of stocks over time,” he said. “Most people are savers, they should want the market to go down. They should want to buy at a lower price.”

Buffett said not to make investing decisions based on day-to-day moves. “You don’t buy or sell your business based on today’s headlines. If it gives you a chance to buy something you like and you can buy it even cheaper, you’re in good luck,” he said, adding that “you can’t predict the market by reading the daily newspaper.”
Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

Don’t buy or sell ‘based on today’s headlines’

As volatility in the market increases because of the coronavirus, Buffett said not to make investing decisions based on day-to-day moves. “You don’t buy or sell your business based on today’s headlines. If it gives you a chance to buy something you like and you can buy it even cheaper, you’re in good luck,” he said, adding that “you can’t predict the market by reading the daily newspaper.”

Dow Jones and Nasdaq are already in the red. France has seen a 30% decline in tourist numbers...same case to other countries which dependent on the Chinese tourist market. The bigger this virus gets the bigger the domino effect....
