Have you ever thought that only big professional investors can make money in the stock market? Can a common man who does not watch the stock market for hours every day also make big money in the long run by identifying good companies? One Up on Wall Street by famed investor Peter Lynch. It gives a wonderful answer to this question.
Peter Lynch believed that even the average investor had a huge advantage. He can see the world around him. The shop you always see crowded. The company whose product comes to your house again and again, or the brand which people are continuously liking. That company may prove to be a great investment in the future.
But keep in mind that just liking a company's product is not a reason to buy shares. So how should a common investor do stock packing according to Peter Lynch. In today's video, we will understand the most important things about One Up on Wall Street that every beginner investor must know. Let's get started.
Peter Lynch says that the average investor should not be afraid of thinking that Wall Street experts know more than him. Many times, in his daily life, a common man first recognizes such businesses and products which big analysts see later. Suppose a new restaurant opens in your city and within a few months it becomes crowded or a new smartphone brand starts gaining popularity rapidly or a company launches a product which people are buying again and again.
This could be a sign that the company's business is getting stronger. But Peter Lynch has the most important rule. Be sure to research the company you know. Do n't buy a company just because you like its product. A famous idea by Peter Lynch is Invest in what you know. This does not mean that you should immediately buy shares of any company whose name you know.
This means looking at your everyday life from an investor's perspective. Which companies' products do you use? Which brands are becoming increasingly popular? Which company's stores are continuously increasing? Which product are people buying again and again? This is where your research can begin. But after that you have to understand the financial results, debt, profit growth, management and valuation of the company.
That means observation can take you to the company. But research helps you in taking investment decisions. Peter Lynch tried to understand companies in different categories. The first one is Slow Growers. These are companies whose growth is very slow. These may have less chance of becoming multibaggers quickly.
But some companies may be attractive for dividends. Two stalls are strong and big companies. Their growth is not very fast but the business can be relatively stable. Such companies can provide stability to the portfolio. Three Fast Growers. This was one of Peter Lynch's favorite categories. Such companies are growing rapidly and if the growth continues for a long time, they may have the potential to give huge returns.
But the risk here can also be high because if the growth stops then it can have a big impact on the share price. Four Cycles The business of these companies depends on the economic cycle. When the economy is good, their business can grow rapidly. But their profits may fall during recession. Therefore, timing can be very important in such companies.
Five turnarounds. These are companies that are going through difficult times. But they have the potential to come back stronger. The opportunities here can be huge. But the risk is also quite big. Six Asset Place. Such companies may have some valuable assets which the market is not fully valuing. Such as land, natural resources or other valuable assets.
Deep research is necessary to understand such companies. According to Peter Lynch, a great investment can be one that multiplies your money. If you invested โน10,000 and it became โน1 lakh, then this happened without your 10%. But the problem is that no investor can tell with certainty in advance which stock will become a 10 bagger.
So the message from Peter Lynch is that you should look for companies that have strong growth. There should be a good business, low or controlled debt, strong management and most importantly good share price. It should not be too expensive compared to its actual value. This book teaches us a very important thing.
Understand the company before buying it. You should look at how the company makes money? Is its revenue increasing or not? Is the profit increasing continuously or not? How much debt does the company have? How is the management? Can the company's business grow in the future or not? And most importantly, is the price at which you are buying the stock fair ?
Even a great company can turn out to be a bad investment. If you bought it at a very high valuation. Many beginner investors only see that the share is cheap because it is โน100 or the share is expensive because it is โน5,000. But this thinking may be wrong. Just because the price of a stock is โน100 or โน5,000 does not indicate whether it is cheap or expensive.
You need to understand the entire financial position and valuation of the company. Remember, a low-priced stock is not necessarily cheap, and a high- priced stock is not necessarily expensive. Patience is a big part of Peter Lynch's philosophy. If you have bought a good company after doing research and its business is moving in the right direction, then there is no need to panic just by looking at the price movement of a few days or a few weeks.
Share prices keep fluctuating in the stock market. But a long-term investor should focus not just on price but on business performance. If the business is growing strong, profits are increasing and the company is performing consistently well, then the investment thesis may remain strong in the long term.
But if the business fundamentals start deteriorating, it is not right to hold on to the stock just in the hope that the price will come back someday. If I have to explain the entire book One Upon Wall Street in one line, then I would say that success in the stock market does not depend only on how big an expert you are but also on how well you understand a business.
A common investor can find investment ideas from his daily life. But getting the idea is just the first step. After that comes research, financial analysis, valuation, patience and discipline. So we get five big lessons from this book. Lesson One: Find investment ideas from your everyday life. Lesson two, like a product and invest in that company.
These are two different things. Lesson three: Understand the company's business and financials before buying a stock. Lesson Four: It is important to buy a good company at the right valuation. Lesson Five: Patience and discipline are very important in long term investing. And the most important thing is that to earn money in the stock market, it is not necessary to just buy stocks.
It is important for you to understand how strong the business you are buying a share of actually is. So friends, this was the Hindi summary of Peter Lynch's famous book One Up on Wall Street.
