Meditations on Investing
Meditations on investing will be published to help us improve our decision-making process. It’s about forcing ourselves to learn how to properly think to detach the crowds. These articles are published on Sundays at 4pm. To get a glance of what they consist of:
Compilation of Reads
I’ve gone over hundreds of shareholder letters, research articles, and essays about investing. Occasionally, I’ll publish free compilations of what I consider to be the most insightful pieces. The first of them contains: (i) a shareholder letter from Buffett, 1960s; (ii) a research article from Mauboussin, 1997; (iii) an essay from R.Zeckhauser, 2006.
Future compilations will be published on this tab: Recommended Reads.
Paid Offering

All companies will be ones that I either hold in the portfolio I’ve been managing for the past 2.5 years or that I’m planning to build a position. You will also get quarterly portfolio updates. In these, I will share the reasoning behind relevant changes in weights.
My approach is purely methodical and aimed at long-term value creation. To get a sense of this, I encourage you to read: Shareholder Letter 2023.
