In 2018, Buffett wrote again of how the fundamentals of investing are timeless:</p>\n<p>“Since 1942… the country contended at various times with a long period of viral inflation, a 21% prime rate, several controversial and costly wars, the resignation of a president, a pervasive collapse in home values, a paralyzing financial panic and a host of other problems.”</p>\n<p>Buffett has always believed that the fundamentals of investing remain intact even in the face of financial fads or innovations, from the tech bubble of the late 1990s to today’s meme stocks or social investing funds.</p>\n<p>The fundamentals of investing are collated in homespun and humorous essays Buffett has been writing for the shareholders of his company, Berkshire Hathaway, for six decades.

In contrast, he uses two examples from his own investing experience to highlight the appeal for investing of common sense, simplicity and business focus. The examples are his investments in an Omaha farm (in 1986) and a New York City apartment building (in 1993) in which he earned outsized returns by adhering to just a few fundamentals.</p>\n<p>First, Buffett has long said the three most important words in investing are “margin of safety.” He refers to the phrase coined by his mentor, Benjamin Graham, who stressed that investment opportunities arise when priced below value. Buffett purchased the farm from a failed banker, and the building from a government receiver. They were eager sellers offering low prices given market conditions. Hunting for such safety is especially important in current highly-priced markets.</p>\n<p>Second, Buffett says “keep it simple” and “don’t swing for the fences.” He isn’t an expert in farming or real estate. But he understood enough to estimate revenues and expenses on these assets over a decade-long holding period. Buffett estimated a 10% return, which he judged reasonable for the moderate risk. In fact, both of these investments saw earnings triple estimates and their value quintuple. If you keep it simple, meaning invest in things you understand, you only need basic competence to comfortably make economic estimates.</p>\n<p>Finally, Buffett advises to “focus on the playing field, not the scoreboard.” By this he means to study the asset and related business prospects rather than any market price. In stocks, for example, focus on the value of the expected cash flows over the next 10 years, not on today’s closing price; for an office building, focus on the value of the expected rent rolls, not on the sales price of the building down the block.</p>\n<p>Individual investors know that investing is not easy and that choppy waters can make things uncomfortable.
