It's the weekend!

Grab a cup of coffee, in this thread I will explain

1. Peter Lynch's Six Categories of Stocks
2. How to identify the type of stock you own?
3. How to think and decide about the runway for growth of a company?

Lets dive right in.


For those who do not know (I doubt there will be many), Peter Lynch is one of the most successful fund managers of all time.

He managed a fund called Magellan at US Investment Giant Fidelity Investments and during his 13 yr tenure, he delivered an average CAGR of 29.2%.


Sadly the fund couldn't keep up post Lynch's retirement and his successors weren't able to keep up with his returns.

That's how good Lynch was!


In 1989, a year before retirement, Lynch wrote and published a book called 'One Up on Wall Street'.

Almost 32 years later, the teachings of the book remain relevant.

(Highly recommended read)


Chapter 7 of the Book Titled
"I've Got It, I've Got It - What is It?"

talks about the need to classify stocks.

Peter's argument is that you need to know what kind of stock you hold in your portfolio.

Not all stocks are the same - and he is right!

#RS is an indicator which helps in finding strong stock or index in the market.

This learning thread would be on
"𝙐𝙨𝙚𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙍𝙚𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙩𝙝"

Shared some strategy.

Like👍 & Retweet🔄for wider reach and for more such learning thread in the future.

Most of us would confuse it with Relative Strength Index (RSI) but Relative Strength is a different indicator.

We have already covered about "Uses of RSI" in below thread👇
https://t.co/oTOrW7joNI

One can go through this if you haven't.

Now coming to Relative Strength (RS).

It is basically a strategy used in momentum investing which shows strength or weakness between two asset classes (two stocks, index, commodity).

One can read about this in below

As of now, I am using this indicator on .@tradingview platform.

It's free and one can add it in their Tradingview account as well, using this link👇
https://t.co/FxCjJFsNOG

There are multiple variants in this as well. Some traders use multiple time frame RS.

4/22

RS basically compares returns of one stock/index with the returns of benchmark stock/index at a particular time horizon.

Let's say, I want to analyze TCS and Benchmark Index is Nifty.

Learning myths #2: Learning formats 👇

Many believe that there are different types of learners

I.e. some people learn more effectively from visual material, some from auditory material and others from kinaesthetic practice

Therefore, instruction should be tailored to each learner’s preferred style (1/11)

Paul Howard-Jones (2014) suggested that this assumption is based on the fact that different regions of the cortex have different roles in visual, auditory, and sensory processing, so students should learn differently “according to which part of their brain works better” (2/11)

Yet, despite the popularity of the theory, there is ample evidence to contradict its validity (3/11)

Tesia Marshik (2015) gave an example of a study to test this.

Participants are given a list of words to memorise. They are either presented with the written list of words, with images of the words, or they listen to the words being read aloud (4/11)

Published a new essay: The red flags and magic numbers that investors look for in your startup’s metrics – 80 slide deck included!


This was a deck that I created on my (longish) interview process with @a16z. It was a long path, starting with meeting folks at the firm 10 years ago. But the purpose of the deck was to explain how I would use my superpower in an investing context

Here's what I explain in the deck. As investors (whether angel or VC) we're often confronted with an up-and-to-the-right graph. Is it going to go up? Or down?


One solution to forecast these growth curves is the Growth Accounting Framework, where you add up New+Reactivated and subtract churned users. In each time period that gives you the difference in monthly actives.


The problem with this is that it's a lagging metric, not a leading one. We need to go one level deeper and look at the underlying loops that drive these numbers, to understand the quality.

Spent a quaint half hour in a cafe listening to a guy yell at his dad after his dad said that the women Trump molested wanted it: "Dad, that's like saying the Jews who died in the Holocaust were asking for it!" ENJOY YOUR TERRIBLE FAMILIES THIS WEEK!

"Mom, has a man ever touched you without your consent?"
"Of course."
"Did you report it?"
"No."
"Dad, your WIFE has been through this!"

Dad was unmoved and told the guy to stop arguing with him.

At this point we learned the boy child has allergies.

I forgot to remark upon the presence of the very cute grandson, who was very small and gave not one shit about the yelling. I believe a sister or aunt was present and feeling very stressed. I wanted to hand her a Xanax or seven.

It was really hard to not jump in and say, "Sounds like you guys are going to have a fun meal tomorrow!" so they could unite in hatred against me, the outsider, and stop squabbling. Instead I exchanged glances with a nearby fellow lady patron, who also emotionally ate a cookie.

Anyway, I want to thank the random family for yelling about rape and the Holocaust in an Israeli cafe in the US of A today because it reminded me that while this country isn't the greatest, it is inevitably my stupid favorite and I am never, ever bored.
