Brain Teaser - Reflexive versus Reflective
Image: Amy Leonard. Valuation multiples tend to trigger the reflexive side of our brain, and we process the multiples through anchoring. On the other hand, enterprise valuation, or the process required to answer the questions (in this article) correctly, shows that our reflexive process can be quite incorrect at times. In fact, cognitive biases such as anchoring can completely trip us up into missing out on truly undervalued companies that may have high P/E ratios while baiting us into value traps with low P/E ratios.

Berkshire Hathaway’s Cash Balance Swells, Ownership Stake in Apple Substantially Reduced
Image: Berkshire Hathaway reduced its equity stake in Apple by a sizable margin. Berkshire Hathaway continues to execute well across its business portfolio, free cash flow continues to move in the right direction, while Buffett remains prudent with his portfolio management decisions. Shareholders’ equity at the end of June was $608 billion, implying that shares are trading at a 1.6x book value, not cheap. Still, we like shares as a key holding in the Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio. Aug 25, 2024

Paper: Value and Momentum Within Stocks, Too
Abstract: This paper strives to advance the field of finance in four ways: 1) it extends the theory of the “The Arithmetic of Active Management” to the investor level; 2) it addresses certain data problems of factor-based methods, namely with respect to value and book-to-market ratios, while introducing price-to-fair-value ratios in a factor-based approach; 3) it may lay the foundation for academic literature regarding the Valuentum, the value-timing, and ultra-momentum factors; and 4) it walks through the potential relative outperformance that may be harvested at the intersection of relevant, unique and compensated factors within individual stocks.

What to Do During This Market Selloff
In short, nothing. Aug 2, 2024
Apple Beats Expectations, Remains a Free Cash Flow Cow
Image: Apple’s shares have done quite well since the beginning of 2022. We liked Apple’s calendar second quarter (fiscal third quarter) results, as the firm outpaced consensus expectations for both Products and Services revenue. Apple’s balance sheet remains pristine, and its strong free cash flow easily covers its dividend. The company continues to buy back stock, and while there were pockets of weakness in the quarterly report, including revenue in Greater China, we like the company’s positioning in artificial intelligence, as we await a strong upgrade cycle for its next-generation iPhone. Shares yield 0.5% at the time of this writing. Jul 27, 2024
