Kewill Ludens – Contributing Editor
Kewill Ludens writes TheShareWeekly newsletter. Here's some more about what makes him tick in his own words.
"I've been selecting shares for my newsletter readers for over 20 years. And here's the best summary of my results:
"Throughout all my years of investing I've found that the big money was never made in the buying and selling. The big money was made in the waiting."
That's from the great 1920s investor-speculator Jesse Livermore and I totally endorse it. I am completely opposed to the ideas put forward by many stockbrokers and newsletters, which are always suggesting you buy this and sell that and buy this and sell that. If you deal like a dervish, you may or may not succeed on any individual trade but one thing is for sure, your stockbroker will be able to add a nice new wing to his country mansion.
I believe you will make really big money if you do as Warren Buffett does. So, what does he say about investing?
"My favourite time frame for holding a stock is forever."
But for that to make sense, you must pick stocks that you will want to hold forever. That means shares in companies with unique advantages in terms of products, brands, franchises, markets, management, financing. Companies that produce above average and consistent rises in sales, profits, earnings per share - which are in turn reflected in share prices that rise much faster than the market average.
In the short term, most of what happens in the market is noise - it is random and meaningless. You cannot know whether any short-term share price movement means anything. But in the long run, a company's share price must reflect the performance of the business. That is why companies like Microsoft are fabulous investments, and as an individual investor that's the kind of stock you should be looking for."
