Remember that the stock market is manic-depressive.
Warren Buffett
Image
If you invested in a very low cost index fund - where you don't put the money in at one time, but average in over 10 years -you'll do better than 90% of people who start investing at the same time.

It is more important to say no to an opportunity, than to say yes.

Focus on return on equity, not earnings per share.

As far as you are concerned, the stock market does not exist. Ignore it.
Warren Buffett
Image
Many stock options in the corporate world have worked in exactly that fashion: they have gained in value simply because management retained earnings, not because it did well with the capital in its hands.
Warren Buffett

We believe that according the name 'investors' to institutions that trade actively is like calling someone who repeatedly engages in one-night stands a 'romantic.'
Warren Buffett

The .350 hitter expects, and also deserves, a big payoff for his performance - even if he plays for a cellar-dwelling team. And a .150 hitter should get no reward - even if he plays for a pennant winner.

Activity is the enemy of investment returns.
Warren Buffett

Look at market fluctuations as your friend rather than your enemy profit from folly rather than participate in it.
Warren Buffett
Image
Our policy is to concentrate holdings. We try to avoid buying a little of this or that when we are only lukewarm about the business or its price. When we are convinced as to attractiveness, we believe in buying worthwhile amounts.

A public-opinion poll is no substitute for thought.
Warren Buffett
Image
I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years.

Derivatives are financial weapons of mass destruction.
Warren Buffett
Image
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.

Games are won by players who focus on the playing field -- not by those whose eyes are glued to the scoreboard.
Warren Buffett
Image
Our marketable equities tell us by their operating results - not by their daily, or even yearly, price quotations - whether our investments are successful. The market may ignore business success for a while, but eventually will confirm it.
Warren Buffett

In the business world, the rearview mirror is always clearer than the windshield.
