Although it's easy to forget sometimes, a share is not a lottery ticket... it's part-ownership of a business.

My method for picking stocks has never changed. When businesses go from crappy to semicrappy, there's money to be made.

The junior high schools and high schools of America have forgotten to teach one of the most important courses of all. Investing.

If you can follow only one bit of data, follow the earnings - assuming the company in question has earnings. I subscribe to the crusty notion that sooner or later earnings make or break an investment in equities. What the stock price does today, tomorrow, or next week is only a distraction.

You have to let the big ones make up for your mistakes.

You can't see the future through a rearview mirror

Invest in what you know.
