Is Carl Icahn smart or dumb?

Submitted by Trott Brook Financial on July 10th, 2020

One of my investing idols, Howard Marks, regularly mentions something he learned as a college freshman back in 1963: you can’t judge the quality of a decision by its outcome. This seems very counterintuitive at first glance. But in the world of investing especially, it is spot on.

Market Update

Submitted by Trott Brook Financial on March 23rd, 2020

Submitted by Trott Brook Financial on February 25th, 2020

Warren Buffett’s annual letter to shareholders was released last weekend. For me, it is one of the most refreshing things to read every year.

Like no one else, he has a way of cutting through the jungle of “noise” and focusing on what really matters.
