The Importance of Durable Competitive Advantage in Investing
Investing in a business with a durable competitive advantage that can earn high rates of return over time is not easy to do. Great businesses are typically characterized by negative working capital, low fixed asset intensity and real pricing power. Markets provide disproportionate rewards to companies that can promise years of sustainable earnings growth.
On today’s episode, Clay Finck continues his review of Gautam Baid’s book, The Joys of Compounding. Today’s episode is part 4 of our review of this incredible book.
