  • Warren Buffett said "When I see memos from Howard Marks in my mail, they're the first thing I open and read." Howard is the Co-Chairman of Oaktree Capital Management. He is known in the investment community for his "Oaktree memos" to clients which detail investment strategies and insight into the economy. He treats investing as equal parts psychology and finance, and his book The Most Important Thing provides "uncommon sense for the thoughtful investor."

    I've been watching all the videos on this playlist. Is anyone else wondering why these videos do not have millions and millions of views? I mean honestly, there is so much money to be made by these insightful security analyses that all branch off Buffet, Graham, and Dodd's investment philosophies. It's like the world is backwards, because we have these useless music videos that promote hyper consumption garnering millions of views daily, and then whenever gems like these videos are out for the the whole entire public to use, not even 100,000? Same thing goes with the Yale Courses, the MIT OPENCOURSWEARE, the Stanford Graduate School Business videos. I guess value investing applies to personal development as well!

      +Arun Ramakrishnan Think your right. Besides, every time I try to explain to someone that can buy a dollar for 50 cents, 9 xs out of 10 there eyes glaze over. People are wierd....

    • @ArunRamakrishnan
      @ArunRamakrishnan 8 років тому +8

      Well most of the crowd wants to buy the hot dollar at $5 and want 10X returns in 1 week :) In fact 6 months is loong term investing for them. So talking abt Seth Klarman or Howard Marks is a lost cause :)

      he mention:
      For the last 3½ years, Oaktree's mantra has been "move forward, but with caution". For the first time in that span, with the arrival of some disarray and heightened risk aversion, events tell us it's appropriate to drop some of our caution and substitute a degree of aggressiveness
