The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Many investors believe that the market is inefficient, and that by focusing on a company's fundamentals, such as earnings, cash flow, and assets, they can identify stocks that are selling for less than they're worth. Other investors believe the market is efficient, so it doesn't matter which business you buy

dillbeans thinks the market is probably a little inefficient, and to the extent that it is, dillbeans is probably on the butt end of it. An inefficient market isn't just opportunity: it's also peril. Years of investing experience have taught me some lessons: The most important one is that my investing goals should be guided by my financial needs and not by my desire to be above average.

cheers,
