някой тук да се интерсувал от биотех? и по=спецялно органово?

Не, не е заради сделката. Харесва ми компанията по принцип. Имам от тях и от преди. Лошите резултати ги правят по-привлекателни за мене. Аз не търся някакъв моментум в следващите месеци. Въпреки че смятам, че заелите тактически позиции в последните месеци и седмици, като разпродадат след разочарованието и цената може да тръгне нагоре към 57-58 до два-три месеца.

Но моят времеви хоризонт е доста по-дълъг.

какво точно ти харесва в компанията?

Е това не мога да разбера – когато някой оправдава неподходящата цена на която купува с дълъг хоризонт …
И на мен ми се случва купувайки при падащи цени (щото пазарувам само при низходящо движение) … но ги местя в графата „прееб..х се“ и стоят с такъв етикет докато не светнат в зелено …
И що купуваш на сегашните цени когато ги очакваш на по-ниски ?
Всъщност аз разбирам израза „опасно е да се влюбваш в дадена акция“ така :

• когато я притежаваш и не искаш да се разделиш с нея защото била Priceless … и ставаш като Aм-гъл
• когато искаш да я имаш на всяка цена – сега и веднага … като жената и децата

Или казано с по-прости думи и от по-умни хора

In the end, only three things matter in investing for the long term:
• The price you pay.
• When you sell.
• The risk you take.

Erik: Let’s move on to the US equity market. We’ve had a lot of people on the program arguing that the market is way overvalued, this thing is overdone, it just has to crash here, the top has to be in. Yet it continues to march higher. And we’ve also heard the other opposite argument, which is that there’s so much new liquidity in the system in terms of the feds supporting the market, even if we’re supposedly talking about shrinking the balance sheet now it’s shrinking very slowly. Which way do you see this, or where do you think it’s going? What’s your outlook for short, medium, long-term in the equity markets?



Chris: Equity markets are clearly overvalued. They’re very much like what you see in the residential real estate market in the United States and also in commercial real estate. The Fed manipulated the credit markets, they took four trillion dollars’ worth of securities out of the market, and they’ve essentially forced all of us to invest in something else. And so you’ve had a situation where low interest rates have driven money into stocks.



You’ve also had companies buying back their stock because debt is so cheap. Look at IBM. They’ve a negative book value for the company now, because they’ve levered up so much and bought back so much stock. And so you have a scarcity of supply. And so I would not disagree at all with your other guests that the stocks are overvalued.



The Street keeps coming up with rationales why that’s not so, but I think it’s clear that it is. But on the other hand, do I expect the market to crash? No. Because, remember, the constraint here is supply. And there’s so much money looking to invest that it’s going into all of the possible asset classes and in some cases into surreal asset classes like bitcoin and all of these digital currencies.



It’s very much a function of the central banks. And I think that’s a problem, because when we “normalize” interest rates we’re going to see a lot of credit losses on the books of banks and bond investors because crappy companies are able to go out and borrow money like they were good companies. Thanks to Janet Yellen. There is a cost to the social engineering that the Federal Reserve Board engages in, and, you know, I think it’s going to—over time the history is not going to be kind to Yellen and her colleagues. Because they have created the next problem. We just haven’t gotten there yet. Rising interest rates could quickly expose the companies’ “short-term thinking” surrounding how we paid for buybacks.”

Много точно казано, въпросе е кога ще дръпнат шалтера,

ясно е че в момента в който QE спре, доста маймуни ще падат от клоновете. Гледам че даже вече и в БГ се пробутват дялове от взаимни фондове, разни акции и т.н. всякакви инструменти от банките в търсене на някаква доходност! Само дето никой не обяснява на хората за какви рискове говорим. Балона само ще се надуе още повече щом куцо, кьораво и сакато се втурнат на борсата. В моменти надуха балоня с НИ, като най-достъпна 'инвестиция', стадото скочи. Всичко живо купува за да отдава под наем, е накрая кой ще взима под наем, питам аз? Я отгоре на всичко не малка част от тези имоти са на левъридж - ипотеки+ плаващи лихви. И това не е само в БГ ами в цяла Европа, САЩ.
големия въпрос е дали централните банки изобщо ще спрат с разхлабената политика. Вижте Япония те там тая игра я играха и там не свърши никак добре.

нищо не са тези 1.5 милиарда за такива пазари

Това е само пример. Пасивните са взели, мисля, 16-17% от американския пазар на акции и постоянно растат. Така че ако някой гледа на цената на акциите от гледна точка на "прилив" на пари, това не е за пренебрегване.

[Black and white cat-foot]

Сред всички други фактори, които бутат индексите нагоре е и това, че инвеститорите се прехвърлят от активен в пасивен мениджмънт. Ефектът идва от там, че активните фондове държат средно по 3% кеш, а пасивните не държат почти никакъв кеш. Така, като се прехвърлят 50 млрд. от активен в пасивен, едни допълнителни 1.5 млрд. които до тогава са били в кеш се "вливат" в акции.

Holders of passive funds are, then, generally terrible market timers, buying at the top and selling at the bottom. They could also, by buying now, be contributing to the top. The average active equity fund keeps about 3 per cent in cash, according to the Investment Company Institute, while passive funds have negligible cash. Thus a switch of $50bn from active equity funds to passive, intended merely to reduce costs rather than to time the market, leads to an extra $1.5bn being put to work buying stocks. This is helping push the market up and could yet work in reverse if investors start to sell on the way down.

Прайслайн - най-добре менажираната интернет компания след Amazon. The Economist пишат за "скритото" бижу на тех индустрията.

As titans like Google, Facebook and Amazon hog the limelight, other firms can go unnoticed. One that deserves more attention is Priceline, the world’s largest online-travel company.

[...]

Today it is a Goliath. Its stable of online sites for booking hotels, cars, flights and restaurants spans the world and includes Booking.com, Kayak, Agoda and OpenTable. Over the past decade Priceline’s pre-tax earnings have grown at a compound annual rate of 42%, faster than Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet (see chart). It also boasts a 96% gross margin. Its share price has risen by more than 50% over the past 12 months, about four times faster than the broader stockmarket. On July 26th the firm’s market value rose above $100bn.

[...]

Perhaps because Priceline is based in Connecticut, not Silicon Valley, it is often overlooked by geeks and technology investors, who revere Airbnb, a platform for booking overnight stays in other people’s homes which is valued at around $30bn. Ask an entrepreneur in San Francisco about Priceline, and you are likely to get a blank stare.

The most important reason for Priceline’s success is shrewd dealmaking. In 2005 it paid around $135m to buy Booking.com, a Dutch website that aggregates hotel inventory, and merged it with another acquisition, a British travel site called Active Hotels. Today Booking.com has the world’s largest supply of hotel accommodation and accounts for the lion’s share of Priceline’s revenue and market value. Booking.com was one of the best deals “in the history of the internet”, says Mark Mahaney of RBC Capital, an investment bank.

Малко тъжно е това, че booking.com първоначално е европейски бизнес, продаден за жълти стотинки (от днешна гледна точка) на американската priceline.com.
