The Warren Buffett Portfolio

Mastering the Power of the Focus Investment Strategy

By: Robert G. Hagstrom

Narrated by: Stefan Rudnicki

Building upon the expertise and strategies outlined in The Warren Buffett Way, author Robert G. Hagstrom reveals how to profitably manage stocks once you select them. In The Warren Buffett Portfolio, Hagstrom introduces the next wave of investment strategy, called focus investing, a comprehensive investment strategy used with spectacular results by Buffett. Focus investing directs investors to select a concentrated group of businesses by examining their management and financial positions as compared to their stock prices. A strategy that has historically outperformed the market, focus investing is based on the principle that a shareholder's return from owning a stock is ultimately determined by the economics of the underlying business.

In easy-to-understand terms, Hagstrom explains exactly what focus investing is, how it works, and how it can be applied by any investor at any level of experience. He demonstrates how Buffett arranges his stocks in a focus portfolio and reveals why this is as responsible for his incredible returns as the individual stocks he picks. Ultimately, Hagstrom shows how to use this technique to build and manage a portfolio to achieve the best possible results.

OK… Not much recent information

Of course, if it’s about Warren Buffett, there are a lot of great principles, but in my opinion, it was not arranged in an easy to listen or learn order. Often sidetracked on uninteresting topics. lack of recent (last two decades) information.

Drilled insight to behave as a long term investor

This was a very well put together concept of ideas for an investor. A must read for a businessman and investor.

Must listen

This is a great breakdown of how to allocate and what to look for using Buffets learned wisdom. Even tho it’s a little older now the principles still apply.

Excellent

Well written. Simple and concise. Highly recommend for everyone who wants to improve or learn how to invest

A wealth of knowledge

Charlie and Warren represent the wisdom of age. They have seen it all, and we would do well to head their advice.
