More quotes by 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
Over the years, Charlie [Munger, Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman] and I have observed many accounting-based frauds of staggering size. Few of the perpetrators have been punished many have not even been censured. It has been far safer to steal large sums with pen than small sums with a gun.
Warren Buffett
It's a big mistake to try and mislead people. They will turn around.
Warren Buffett
Does the business have favourable long term prospects?
Warren Buffett
We do not view the company itself as the ultimate owner of our business assets but instead view the company as a conduit through which our shareholders own assets.
Warren Buffett
Of our 49 billion, we haven't moved any to Bitcoin
Warren Buffett
... not doing what we love in the name of greed is very poor management of our lives.
Warren Buffett
Enjoy your work and work for whom you admire.
Warren Buffett
If you don’t feel comfortable making a rough estimate of the asset’s future earnings, just forget it and move on. No one has the ability to evaluate every investment possibility. But omniscience isn’t necessary you only need to understand the actions you undertake.
Warren Buffett
Forecasts may tell you a great deal about the forecaster they tell you nothing about the future.
Warren Buffett
On his Giving Pledge philanthropy: The way I got the message out was to get a copy of FORBES, look down that 400 list and start making phone calls! Bill and Melinda [Gates] did the same thing. So keep publishing the list so I can milk it.
Warren Buffett
I will do anything that is basically covered by the law to reduce Berkshire's tax rate. For example, on wind energy, we get a tax credit if we build a lot of wind farms. That's the only reason to build them. They don't make sense without the tax credit.
Warren Buffett
It's very important that the determination of the US Congress to do what is is needed be made evident this week and by the actions of most of the members. I mean, you're not going to get total assent.
Warren Buffett
I mean, if Pearl Harbor came along, you could have said the planning was wrong by the military ahead of time or maybe the battleships shouldn't have all been in the harbor and all that kind of thing.
Warren Buffett
Don't pass up something that's attractive today because you think you will find something way more attractive tomorrow.
Warren Buffett
Businesses always have opportunities to improve service, product lines, manufacturing techniques, and the like, and obviously these opportunities should be seized. But a business that constantly encounters major change also encounters many chances for major error
Warren Buffett
If I got a chance to take one percent of the deal either way, I would make that bet.
Warren Buffett
One of the ironies of the stock market is the emphasis on activity. Brokers, using terms such as 'marketability' and 'liquidity,' sing the praises of companies with high share turnover... but investors should understand that what is good for the croupier is not good for the customer. A hyperactive stock market is the pick pocket of enterprise.
Warren Buffett
I want to be able to explain my mistakes. This means I do only the things I completely understand.
Warren Buffett
If you've got the power to raise prices without losing business to a competitor, you've got a very good business. And if you have to have a prayer session before raising the price by a tenth of a cent, then you've got a terrible business. I've been in both, and I know the difference.
