1. Investing Core Principles
& Stock Selection Principles
Arranged by the CFA Society Philippines, May 28, 2014
at #PRIC2014

2. Core Investing Principles
o You will not get rich in the stock market
o Have a written plan
o Time horizon is very long, build wealth carefully
o Time is the easiest way to success
in the stock market
o As you get older, reduce your exposure
to stocks
o Every interaction with money causes emotional
and biological changes in your body

3. Stock Selection Principles
o Reducing risk is more valuable than picking
winners
o The past and present are more important
and knowable than the future
o Have no “memory” about any stock,
be willing to buy it again
o Stay concentrated, avoid owning less than
10 stocks or more than 20

4. Stock Selection Principles
o Be most worried about stocks when everyone
is positive about them
o Don’t get stuck in any one style (value,
growth, etc) or guessing when styles shift
o Think of each investment as relative
to another
