Stocks for Beginners

Beer and investing are two of my favourite things, so it was a blast to be invited on to the Beer In Front Podcast hosted by the redoubtable Dave Zalitoris. We talked a little about me, some basics on investing for beginners and discussed a couple of local beers of Sydney. There’s nothing like a crisp euro lager turn your attention to stocks and investing for the future. Beer in Front is a Podcast about old school beers, new classics, and calling out hypocrites and Jagoffs. Dave is also a member of the North American Guild Of Beer Writers.

And so the story continues with the Black Monday Crash of 1987 through to the tech boom, Y2K bug and the year 2000.

"These big Americana blue chip names got absolutely hammered. And so thus the Dow fell, you know, 22 and a half percent, the S&P that fell. It was horrendous. I'll never forget it. Again as I tell the story, I can feel myself in the room. I can feel the phones ringing. I can feel the tension in the, in the place. It was really, it was unbelievable. It was unbelievable. And we were there that night until, you know, eight or nine o'clock at night, just writing reports and confirming trades because there was such swings in prices.”

So, I’m searching around for my next guest and I come across this guy, Kenny Polcari. I’m looking at this guy and I’m thinking – he’s been on the New York Stock Exchange for like 40 years. He might know a thing or two. I normally try and keep interviews to 30 minutes but after 30 minutes we hadn’t even reached 1987. I love war stories and Kenny’s been there on the frontline on a bayonet charge through the markets. We’ve decided to record 4 episodes to chronicle this extraordinary story. Next episode will be about the Black Monday Crash of 1987 through to the tech boom, Y2K bug and the year 2000.

By the way the movie our failing memories was trying to recall was Wall Street with Kirk Douglas and Charlie Sheen. “Greed is Good”. Here’s some clips: https://youtu.be/-TLCaDbBv_s

My guest today is Hunter Allemand Managing Partner of Moriah Consulting. Hunter grew up in a small town of about 600 people with a unique perspective on life. He got into business as a toddler (a fascination with value exchange) and kept learning, reading business books, and working for people to make a few bucks. He’s travelled all over the US up mountains, down subways, out to the oilfields of West Texas, dropping out of college, working on farms, strapping production tanks, selling pipes, and hiking trails before ending up in Mergers & Acquisitions.

"I think the biggest mistake is buying into other people's education. They are selling you a dream as opposed to a solution. And that's where people kind of get messed up in this business. They're thinking that there is some kind of short cut to get rich faster than just letting your money compound. There are all these guys that have nice cars, nice boats, beautiful women, and they sell the allure of success."

Welcome to this first episode of Weekend Watchlist. These episodes are designed to take a deep dive into a company and why it might be worth putting on your watch list. It's not a recommendation to buy, but a way of learning how the experts go about screening for value.

Ethan Widell Senior Analyst from Ironhold Capital joined me to discuss BIOGEN (BIIB) a pharmaceutical company that has had its stock price punished after a negative patent outcome. There is an upside due to a new Alzheimers drug due for approval in June.

“It's trading as though investors think there's a 100% chance of it being rejected. It's about fair value given very, very negative assumptions about the company. So our thoughts are that it remains a great company, regardless of whether it can pass this through. And while it has some bumpy years ahead with that loss of its major drug, it still has a great niche and still has a great ability to produce more drugs in the future.”
