More quotes by Warren Buffett
The fundamental basis of above-average performance in the long run is sustainable competitive advantage.
Warren Buffett
I certainly have no desire to sell a good controlled business run by people I like and admire, merely to obtain a fancy price. However, specific conditions may cause the sale of one operating unit at some point.
Warren Buffett
I think that actually people in my situation should be paying more tax.
Warren Buffett
Diversification may preserve wealth, but concentration builds wealth.
Warren Buffett
Mr. Market is kind of a drunken psycho. Some days he gets very enthused, some days he gets very depressed. And when he get really enthused you sell to him, and if he gets depressed, you buy from him. There's no moral taint attached to that.
Warren Buffett
Growth and value investing are joined at the hip.
Warren Buffett
I think any time you couple the term Wall Street with bailout or something like that, you know - I don't like what's going on in Wall Street.
Warren Buffett
Of one thing be certain: if a CEO is enthused about a particularly foolish acquisition, both his internal staff and his outside advisors will come up with whatever projections are needed to justify his stance. Only in fairy tales are emperors told that they are naked.
Warren Buffett
A pin lies in wait for every bubble. And when the two eventually meet, a new wave of investors learns some very old lessons: First, many in Wall Street (a community in which quality control is not prized) will sell investors anything they will buy. Second, speculation is most dangerous when it looks easiest.
Warren Buffett
You can't buy what is popular and do well.
Warren Buffett
If at first you do succeed, quit trying on investing.
Warren Buffett
There is nothing like writing to force you to think and get your thoughts straight.
Warren Buffett
I look for businesses in which I think I can predict what they're going to look like in ten to fifteen years time. Take Wrigley's chewing gum. I don't think the internet is going to change how people chew gum.
Warren Buffett
Shares are not mere pieces of paper. They represent part ownership of a business. So, when contemplating an investment, think like a prospective owner.
Warren Buffett
I mean, you can explain the fact that these are depressed prices, you know. We think these assets are going to be worth a lot more. And I think that case can be made in certain situations. But I think to just say, you know, we're going to say a dollar of cash is worth $2 all of a sudden, it isn't worth $2. It's worth a dollar today.
Warren Buffett
The only way to be loved is to be loveable, which really irritates me.
Warren Buffett
We've used up a lot of bullets. And we talk about stimulus. But the truth is, we're running a federal deficit that's 9 percent of GDP. That is stimulative as all get out. It's more stimulative than any policy we've followed since World War II.
Warren Buffett
No matter how great the talent or efforts, some things just take time.
Warren Buffett
The best way in my view is to just buy a low-cost index fund and keep buying it regularly over time, because you'll be buying into a wonderful industry, which in effect is all of American industry... People ought to sit back and relax and keep accumulating over time.
Warren Buffett
I mean the truth is, I've never had it so good in terms of taxes. I am paying the lowest tax rate that I've ever paid in my life.
