Hey, great video - But when I try to apply this to a particular company, I get lost in all their accounting jargon. Would you be able to make a video explaining how to interpret a companies Filing History? Because I just seem to be looking at 40 pages of jargon (Most of which probably isn't even relevant)
If the value of the dollar is waiving on the faith and confidence of the people then at what point is the dollar bubble going to pop? We might pretend one pigeon shit is equivalent to 1 dollar which is might just realistically be. The fédérale is running the biggest ponzi scheme ever does anybody look into the numbers? If you dont own real estate or commodities then the net value of any given investor or the GDP then you pretty much might say that figure is what you are worth in pigeon shit. But yea ofcourse lets keep going on and believe the dollar currency is really worth something.
Do you have a an additional resource on chapter 2? It's already difficult for me to fully understand the debit/credit concepts on the balance sheet example. Thanks!
8:59 Very interesting point. The more assets a company has, the more room for depreciation, which negatively effects net income. "It's the income statement that reveals the real value of assets, not their arbitrary figures in the balance sheet." - Benjamin Graham.

Hi Swedish Investor, I like your channel very much, as I am also interested about investing. You are excellent in summarising best books of this field. Keep it up.
1:18 Wouldn't that be zero companies? A company jingle is an internally generated asset that can no longer be recognised on the balance sheet under US GAAP. The book was probably written before this change in accounting standards though.
Qualitative filters = investigative journalism on the company you want to invest in, Quantitative = No hanky pinky in financial statements. Nice job Swedish Investor!
Thank you the video! Have you ever considered doing a video that covers your stock selection process covering both the quantitative and qaulitative aspects? I found the fifth point very interesting.
What a great way of EXPLAINATION, step by step in boxes. Can u please also make video on EDUCATION OF A VALUE INVESTOR by GUY SPIER [ no one had explained it clearly, could you explaine it in easy way like this ] Thanks
The Intelligent Investor is a timeless masterpiece that emphasizes disciplined, value-based investing. Graham's principles, like margin of safety and understanding intrinsic value, teach patience and rationality in markets. I’ve been trying to grow my savings and wonder which is better, the stock market or crypto & trading.
I was not such a big fan of this book. I still own it and it is still on my shelf. I liked the rapid interpretation of financial statements by marry Buffett better. Felt like it taught the subject a lot easier and better. On that note, I also do not like or pay much attention to intangible assets unless the company is a massively well known company with a massive MOAT. Outside of that, I could care less about it. I try to find the meat and potatoes which is the actual stuff that matters. Good review though.

Can you also do a video on how you pick a particular stock and what things you looked for using a hybrid of all these approaches that you learnt? That would be a great learning for most of us I think - finding our own way to do this.
No worries Hactor Mayoral, great to hear that you are getting started! You are correct that assets = liabilities at all times, but there's a difference between long-term liabilities and assets and short-term ones. The current ratio is calculated by taking current assets (short-term ones)/current liabilities (short-term ones). The wording could be kind of confusing, but "current" means "short-term" here. Meaning assets and liabilities that are expected that they can/will be repaid in a year or less. So a company with more short-term assets will have a higher current ratio and the company with more short-term liabilities will have a lower one. Hope this helps.
Would you be able to do a more in-depth video about the P/B Ratio. Google says a fair number is between 1 and 3, but whenever I assess different companies I'm getting numbers from 10 right up to 95.
I am not sure if you are still interested but using a discounted cash flow approach would be better for making investment decisions. As far as book value is concerned, P/B's are typically lower for banking stocks, metal stocks, etc. While it is higher for high-growth companies, IT stocks, etc. So, a fair number would be dependent on the industry and the company's peers. A ratio below 1 is extremely undervalued provided the figures are stated honestly in the balance sheets and the business is profitable.
Why is a 5% net margin for a health tech firm bad and for a distribution firm good? What variables of a firm does one use to decide whether a high low net margin or a high net margin is good or bad? How can one assess whether the P/B Ratio is good or not? How you refer to in the video, Mr. Swedish Investor, sir, a money bank may have a low P/B Ratio while a consulting firm has a high P/B , what decides if either is good or bad? What elements of the firm's industry decide whether it's good to have low or high P/B and do you have any guidelines for reasonable p/b ratios for industries?
As far as i know, book value should be equal to shareholder's equity or the difference between assets and liabilities. Your definition of p/b ratio ignores the debt of the company as it only has assets as the book value.
here's what i don't get, P/B ratio is market cap divided by the total value of the balance sheet, which is equal to either the left hand or right hand side. please explain, why would i divide by liabilities? why either? why not both? Complete newb here with 0 accounting knowledge or financial knowledge.
The PB-ratio is a quite confusing name really. It actually takes only equity in account, but the name implies that it would be the whole balance sheet. But book value is calculated using total assets - total liabilities (=total equity).
so which one is book value? total value of balance sheet as stated in @7:30 or total asset minus total liabilities as stated in @10:05. im confused pls help
I come from the security analysis video after struggling to understand the book by myself, then I have to put the Intelligent Investor video on queue after also failing to undestand the book fully and I also have to put the Common Stock and Uncommon Profits on the whatchlist after the mention on the video. This journey keeps getting larger and larger ain´t it, welp, guess I better get to work right?

Thank you Kaushal Shukla 👍 Regarding time spent for making one of these videos ... there's quite a learning curve, but it can still take everything between 60 hours (The Black Swan) and down to about 25 hours (Bed of Procrustes, my most recent one)
It was a nice joke ;-) You only remove Interest (I drops) and Taxes (T drops) from EBIT. So "earnings before interest and expenses" become only "earnings" (or net income)
I dont understand one thing - He said Current Ratio should be above 2, but even a strong company like Apple has a Current Ratio of 1.5 and I haven't found any above 2, so can somebody elaborate on that? Thanks.
I know, I'm five years late :D But doesn't the book value per share measure equity/number of shares instead of the general value of assets overall? I'm a bit confused. Kind regards^^

Saying "Assets = Liabilities" near the 5 minute mark confused the hell out of me. Its more direct to say "Asset = Liabilities + Owner's Equity" Regardless, thank you for all of your videos. They've saved me so much time and broadened my knowledge. Still got way more to learn. SUBSCRIBED!!!
hey I think there's a contradiction in the explanation. You say p/b (price-to-book value) can be calculated by dividing market cap by the total assets but then you say that the book value of a company is equal to shareholder's equity (assets - liabilities). if the latter is true then p/b should be calculated by market cap/equity, right? let me know if I got something wrong.
This focus on the analysis of a company’s balance sheets, operations and competitive value as the method of determining the future value is the wrong approach to take, it’s much better to analyse the market price curve and try to figure out some sort of mathematical property that will let your predict the future.

hey I think there's a contradiction in the explanation. You say p/b (price-to-book value) can be calculated by dividing market cap by the total assets but then you say that the book value of a company is equal to shareholder's equity (assets - liabilities). if the latter is true then p/b should be calculated by market cap/equity, right? let me know if I got something wrong.
Forgive me if I'm wrong but current ratio should be low indicating that the company is able repay its debts in a timely fashion...
You might be confused this current ratio to debt/equity ratio. The current ratio, the higher than 1 is the better. The other ratio is the opposite.
This focus on the analysis of a company’s balance sheets, operations and competitive value as the method of determining the future value is the wrong approach to take, it’s much better to analyse the market price curve and try to figure out some sort of mathematical property that will let your predict the future.
