"Invert, always invert" ~ Charlie Munger. Why is inversion a valuable tool? In this episode, we explore the practical uses of deductive thinking and its relevance to investing. Starting from the goal and working backward requires us to look a problem from a different angle - it can be a discovery process. By gaining awareness of actions that are harmful, we actually make a great leap forward to reaching our objectives.
Anchoring is a psychological short cut that all human beings perform. In investing, the gravity of anchors is so powerful and pervasive that we must educate ourselves on this topic. Listen to this episode to gain awareness of the nuances of anchoring and learn what can be done to prevent it.

A spin-off occurs when a company breaks off one or more of its segments into a separate publicly traded company. Besides being a historically 'nutritious' place to hunt for value, the dynamics behind a spin-off are inherently interesting and oppose the forces that make markets efficient. In this episode, which is part one of an undetermined number of episodes on the subject, we cover key attributes that are indicative of a compelling spin-off worth digging into, as described in Joel Greenblatt's book on special situations.
How do you generally deal with and think about market fluctuations? In this episode, we cover Chapter 8 of The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham.

The checklist is a simple yet overlooked tool in making investment decisions. If you haven't been using one up until now, it is a good idea to begin thinking about its importance. Buying and selling stocks is easy - too easy these days. Technology has reduced the smallest distance between impulse and action to the point where a day trader may not remember how many times the same stock was bought and sold within a single trading day. When we buy shares of a company, we become fractional owners. If we want to own a company for the long term, naturally we should care about a great many things that will affect the health and prosperity of the business. And so it makes sense to list those attributes you believe to be important in an investment. Don't leave it up to your experience or mood on the day you transact - have a checklist and ensure you have run through it before making a decision to buy that shiny new opportunity.
