Episode notes

This chapter discusses the importance of return on invested capital (ROIC) and reinvestment opportunities in determining the quality of a business. It explains that stock prices tend to follow the ROIC, and a higher ROIC leads to better returns for investors. However, this is only true when a company has plenty of reinvestment opportunities.

Kyle Grieve chats with Compounding Quality about the benefits of quality investing, the tenets of a quality business, why returns on invested capital are the most important metric for measuring quality, the aspects of a quality management team, the attributes of a successful investor, the simple way to measure the returns of an investment, and a whole lot more!
