Red hastings is an excellent business person. We know we have to understand the business. And you can't do that without understanding the business. Is this business capable of fending off aggressive competition, even the biggest competition? Nobody knows what's about to happen with it. The answer may be not so much trying to reduce the margin of safety so much as being more conservative about how you're calculating it.
In their final show on the investing question mark that is Netflix, Phil and Danielle use the entertainment and streaming company as a case study to help you understand how to handle investing in a company if you can’t figure out if it has an intrinsic value.
While most of the companies you invest in seem to be clear-cut, there could be some outliers. So how do you handle them? What are the red flags? How do you identify the moat?
Tune in to this episode of InvestED to learn how to invest in riskier businesses and identify their moats, and why it’s important to buy wonderful businesses at fair prices instead of fair businesses at wonderful prices.
