- Good long-term businesses are harder to find than you think. Predicting long-term winners isn't easy, and financial forecasts often miss the mark. Practice humility in investing and be ready to adjust your thesis.
- Avoid dealing with dishonest individuals. It's difficult to spot insincerity, and once dishonesty is detected, it's best to move on immediately.
- Markets are still prone to irrational behavior. Human nature hasn't changed, and rapid information dissemination can lead to herd mentality and market inefficiencies. Manic behavior in markets is here to stay.
