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.

A good listen, my go to for risk /reward analysis.

To summarize;

Play more tennis....or watch Wimbledon 2023 (tennis and investing analogy)

Eubanks vs Medvedev (risk controlled) vs
Alcaraz vs Djokovic (high risk)

"It's a matter of style and execution"

Nadal, Djokovic, and Federer dominated with 65 Grand Slams. They hit winners but had very few unforced errors....they dominated.

Enjoyed the GFC / FANG stock, long term holding discussion.

My add, valuation matters for the market and individual stocks, concentrate on the business and it's compounding potential (eg Apple) look globally for diversify between 7-10 positions and continue to hold. I note he talks about value in China as everyone else is exiting as an example.

DYOR.
