My #1 Rule for Investors That Most Don't Follow

In this video, I share the most important principle newer investors should learn that I don't see many following. Owning quality businesses is the primary reason most investors should buy stocks. Doing so will eliminate a lot of investing mistakes and lost money.
If you would like an analysis of a stock that is not in the S&P 500, I post those for my Patreons. Patreons also receive a 30% discount on my private investing group The Cyclical Investor's Club, over at Seeking Alpha.

I have no affiliation with these guys other than using their services.

As always, I do not provide individual investing advice. I share the methods I personally use to value stocks and other investments, which may lose money.

Interesting! Your comments about earnings beating inflation got me thinking, what if instead of looking at overall inflation, what if we target sectors with the highest inflation? For example, car insurance is way up — maybe that makes GEICO or similar companies worth a look since their benchmark is higher and would be more likely to outperform overall inflation
