About the Author
I began my investment journey in 2016 and hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Finance. I’ve also worked as an analyst at a Fortune 500 company and a writer at a financial media company.
A book that has heavily influenced my investing philosophy is Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits by Philip A. Fisher. Warren Buffett and his counterpart, Charlie Munger, both claim their investing styles have been influenced by Fisher.
I make sure to reference Fisher's 15 Points, a qualitative checklist explained in his book, before making any investment decision.
Here are a few of my favorite points:
"Does the company have products or services with sufficient market potential to make possible a sizable increase in sales for at least several years?"
As a growth investor, I prefer to invest in companies with high and recurring sales growth. Companies that sell products or services that have a consistent and constant stream of demand, like cloud services and cybersecurity, will likely perform well over the long term.
"Does the company have a short-range or long-range outlook in regard to profits?"
An investor should only be focused on the long-term outlook of companies that they invest in. Investing in unprofitable companies shouldn't be seen as taboo as long as their margins and FCF trend up over the long run. Additionally, the path to profitability should be clearly sustainable.
"Does the management talk freely to investors about its affairs when things are going well but "clam up" when troubles and disappointments occur?"
An ideal company is completely transparent about their operations and financials. No company is immune to bad news, and an honest management team should report all material news to shareholders, rain or shine.
