In investing, it's not always about swinging for the fences and hitting home runs. Just like in baseball, it's the consistent base hits that build up and win games. That's the philosophy I always share with my investors. Sure, some deals I thought were home runs turned out to be strikeouts. But others, initially thought of as base hits, turned into doubles or even triples. Truly fantastic investments. The key? Keeping the momentum going, staying active in the game. #action #leadershipquotes #investments #renting #realestatetips

Baseball metaphors abound in investing, at least in the U.S., and Fiduciary Management’s Jonathan Bloom uses an apt one to describe his firm’s approach: “It’s as true as ever that investors are looking to hit home runs,” he says. “We're content to hit singles and doubles and actually think the secret to the business is more in reducing strikeouts.” Looking to pay “sufficiently cheap” prices for advantaged businesses that prosper when times are good and gain ground when times are difficult, Bloom and his team discuss in the latest issue of Value Investor Insight where they are finding idiosyncratic opportunities today (link in the comments). $BME $G $GTES $FBIN $SW #valueinvesting #stockresearch #valueinvestors

With baseball season officially starting, I decided to rewatch Moneyball. This movie speaks to me on so many levels! It's a great reminder that just because your competitors do things one way, doesn't mean it's the right way for you. It's important to look at metrics that can drive your business, but the same metrics others focus on may not be right for you. Most importantly, believe in your plan and stick to your convictions, even if it means making tough decisions like starting Hatteberg at 1st! Have you watched Moneyball? What lessons did you take away from it? #Moneyball #BusinessLessons #StickToYourConvictions
