I have always cautioned partners that I considered three years a minimum in determining whether we were performing.
Warren Buffett
Image
The (stock) market is there only as a reference point to see if anybody is offering to do anything foolish. When we invest in stocks, we invest in businesses.
Warren Buffett

We don't get paid for activity, just for being right. As to how long we'll wait, we'll wait indefinitely.
