Long-term valueBuying wonderful businesses at fair prices and holding for decades. Moats, cash flows, patience.
Great companies compound for years, so the hard part isn't picking them — it's holding on through the noise. I look for durable advantages (brands, networks, switching costs), owners who think long-term, and a price that leaves room for error. Then I do as little as possible.
- Quality first — durable moats over hot stories
- 10-year holding horizon; ignore daily swings
- Reinvest dividends and let compounding work
- Buy more when great companies go on sale

Boring is beautiful. Topped up while everyone chased AI headlines.
Down a bit this month — doesn't change a 10-year thesis. Doing nothing.
Started a position. Membership renewals are the closest thing to a subscription a retailer can have.
Not selling the moat — just rebalancing after a strong run so no single name dominates.
Earnings looked fine. The cloud story is still early. Patience.
Opened a position on fear. I want the strongest bank when others look wobbly.

Another noisy day. I'm not touching anything — good companies grow whether or not today is exciting. Doing nothing is a plan too. $KO
