I looked up the median US income in 1953, it was $3200, so $1M in 1953 was about 312x median income. Median income in 2023 is about $80,000, the equivalent of Graham's $1M achievement in terms of wage income would be about $25M, more than double the inflation adjusted comparison of $11.3M. Awesome video as always, the research done for videos and the way you present them in simple drawings are so enjoyable to watch.
Mr value investor, I don’t think I would be me without these men, Mr, Graham, Mr munger, Mr lynch, and Mr Buffet,Mr fink, their are a few, but the knowledge these men gave us, just brilliant humans.
In the words of Benjamin Graham, "The intelligent investor dreads a bull market, since it makes stocks more costly to buy. And conversely (so long as you keep enough cash on hand to meet your spending needs), you should welcome a bear market, since it puts stocks back on sale." The worst bear market in history is the greatest sale on stocks in history. It really is no wonder someone was able to make bank at a time like that.
Can you create a video on how you screened for the companies that are available for less than their met assets - the list you featured in the video. Thank you
An investment operation is one which, upon thorough analysis, promises safety of principal and an adequate return. Operations not meeting these requirements are speculative -Benjamin Graham Great video 👍
Hi Swedish Investor, I was wondering if you could do a video on bond selection... I read about Graham talking about asset allocation on 50/50 or even 25/75 stocks vs bonds. For stocks you can look at annual reports, financial data and managing, but for bonds what do you look for? Which bond is better to choose over another and why? Any advice on this? Maybe some reading material you can recommend? Thank you.
Hello swedish investor I love your content 👍 I'm a 17 year old entrepreneur who has watched every video. I own almost every book you have talked about on this channel and am truly passionate just like you thanks for the new video as I will gladly watch
Love your videos especially the ones like this, i have been reading/listening the first 3 and currently the 4. Of your book recommendations. I even tried to have a look at the moderna company (medical) and tried looking bit on when it was to cheap and expensive. Though i had a hard time sometimes understanding what thinks meant in the financial statements, even after your video. Can you make another video or add a book to your recommended reading list video with more in depth accounting as it also can be a challenge when reading the other books. Otherwise little recommendation just for me would be very appreciated. ❤
Hey Vincent Naldal, cheers for the support! I might do more videos about accounting, although there are a few on the channel already. The best book on the subject is probably Security Analysis, but it's a really tough read. For people who are newer to financial statements, I would suggest "Warren Buffett Accounting Book: Reading Financial Statements for Value Investing"
Hi, The Swedish Investor. Absolutely love your videos. Binged watched most of them. Could you please recommend the tools you use for your videos, especially for the whiteboard animation, if you don't mind? I have been thinking of creating similar videos for my students, for different subject ofcourse.
Stock is the oldest online market we have, we employed it because of the highest quality of services it renders and how successful it is. Today we say cryptocurrency too, all I'm saying us that people should also invest in crypto. It would be helpful.
In a world where success in the financial arena usually feels out of reach, particularly for low-income employees, it's imperative to recognize that building wealth and achieving financial freedom is feasible for everyone, regardless of income level. By using realistic strategies that are tailored to their own needs, low-income people can pave the way to a more optimistic financial future.
If you think Benjamin Graham is a good example of that, think again. In the words of Benjamin Graham, "The intelligent investor dreads a bull market, since it makes stocks more costly to buy. And conversely (so long as you keep enough cash on hand to meet your spending needs), you should welcome a bear market, since it puts stocks back on sale." The worst bear market in history is the greatest sale on stocks in history. It really is no wonder someone was able to make bank at a time like that.
Cheers, thanks a ton for the support! It's a great idea silVerY GOLd.! I'm not sure how well Peter Lynch's journey to the first million has been covered, if there's enough material out there to base a video on, but I can look into it 👍
If you a referring to the Northern Pipe Line example in the video, I didn't check the bonds myself to be able to judge the validity of saying that they were "high-grade". This statement comes from Graham's memories or Janet Lowe's book, not sure which one, maybe both. In general though, yes, you'd need to check the 10-Ks or similar. I'm not familiar with the exact requirements of this, but you can typically find the information you are looking for in the notes associated with the balance sheet. For example, in Apple's latest 10-K there's the following: _Note 3 - Financial Instruments Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities "The following tables show the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities by significant investment category as of September 24, 2022 and September 25, 2021 (in millions):"_
Although the Intelligent Investor gets a lot of love, Graham's sub-strategy approach to investing is the real secret to his success that the top hedge funds still use today. Great video!
With changes in the economy leading to instability in the stock market, some individuals may face a decrease in their investments in an effort to benefit from the current market conditions, I am considering liquidating my $725k portfolio consisting of bonds and stocks. Someone else in the same situation? Please tell me in the comments!..
@Joseph Green I have been exploring the possibility of utilizing advisors to help navigate the stock market during these uncertain times. However, I am still evaluating their potential effectiveness in providing the support I need.
@Joseph Green I was considering changing my investment strategy and planning to sell certain positions. As my retirement is coming soon,I became increasingly stressed. After thoroughly researching Christy Vallen D'souza on internet, I concluded that I had made an informed decision. Thank you for this Pointer. She seems very proficient and flexible. I booked a call session with her too.
I screened for those 2 companies you highlighted too, it seems to me that they only recently turned a profit, not necessarily a good investment, so far in the us market I could only find stla stellantis which has good cashflow throughout it's last 10 years
"Imagine that take whatever number you have in your portfolio and imagine someone just ripping away 90% - oh the horror! " - quick check to my crypto portfolio where many positions still open since early 2021... yep, still in -85% At least I've watched a lot of your videos.
@@TheSwedishInvestor thank you, I've learned a lot of since. This was my very first bear market, luckily avoided to be bankrupt. Hopefully my portfolio will recover in the not to far future.

An interesting alternative comparison Hylin! Cheers for that and for your support 🙌
but it's how the money spends. All your comparison shows, is that people in general are way less poor
Great calculation. Thanks!

One of the most useful TH-cam channels

Additionally, that was when $1000000 was worth far more money🎉🎉💲📈

Great video summary. Thank you! (Wish I had that book.)

Is security analysis worth reading if I have read Intelligent Investor and The interpretation of financial statements?
do you think graham would write a book for no reason Lol
@@maalikserebryakov Selling the book is enough reason to write it. Now if its worth reading 900 pages is another story. 'Lol'
Hello swedish investor I love your content 👍 I'm a 17 year old entrepreneur who has watched every video. I own almost every book you have talked about on this channel and am truly passionate just like you thanks for the new video as I will gladly watch
12 bucks per week was what my dad made in the 50s, so yeah Benji Graham was doing GREAT in the 1910s.
Your videos are insightful and at the same time hilarious ,Love the way you explained difficult subjects in simple manner , Thank you for doing this
So what is the next geico or netflix or tesla that still small but have the limited down with maximum up?
Where can I learn about stock market man

How are you making such beautiful videos ? What tools are you using. I am genuinely interested

this is your best video till date.. amazing !
is ROCHELLE DUNGCA-SCHREIBER on youtube? please how do i reach her!
Thank you
@The Swedish Investor it doesn't feel right without your signature pronunciation "Benjamin Gray-Ham" 😉
I've been going to a speech therapist for months 😉
Wall Street closed for 5 months in 1914. Why?
Americans 🙄 You realise WWI started in 1914 and not 1918 when you lot joined ?
Wow nice Topic

Well done sir
feel very much like graham in my life right now. the ups and downs. hopefully we'll all come out ahead in the long run
great video thank for this, could you do a similar video with peter lynch, another stock market legend?
Cheers, thanks a ton for the support! It's a great idea silVerY GOLd.! I'm not sure how well Peter Lynch's journey to the first million has been covered, if there's enough material out there to base a video on, but I can look into it 👍
do you have patreon?
his first job was in wall street
How long does it take to animate these videos?
Wow, comments have been bot spammed about a fruit place 😑😮💨 as if that's going to make people want to take a look at it.
didn't watch it yet, hopefully its amazing
How do you check for what type of bonds the company held? Do you have to read it's annual statement?
yep
If you a referring to the Northern Pipe Line example in the video, I didn't check the bonds myself to be able to judge the validity of saying that they were "high-grade". This statement comes from Graham's memories or Janet Lowe's book, not sure which one, maybe both. In general though, yes, you'd need to check the 10-Ks or similar.

1m$ 1930 is about 18m today

Think in videos the numbers mentioned should be adjusted for inflation and given todays value.
Thanks
LOL He was born in London but Died in France, but he was American, make that make sense

Hey ValuableTips! I didn't go in-depth on any of those companies, so it's not a recommendation or anything. Just a comparison with the 1932 situation.

The point everyone is missing is that these guys became rich not on investing, but when owning a company.
@@enchainedprometheus next time try speculating when the asset is at a massive discount, such as now for example
