While I wait for 9/- ...
Warren Buffett - "Look at market fluctuations as your friend rather than your enemy; profit from folly rather than participate in it."
"The best thing that happens to us is when a great company gets into temporary trouble...We want to buy them when they're on the operating table."
"If you aren't willing to own a stock for ten years, don't even think about owning it for ten minutes."
"I try to buy stock in businesses that are so wonderful that an idiot can run them. Because sooner or later, one will."
"Investors should remember that excitement and expenses are their enemies. And if they insist on trying to time their participation in equities, they should try to be fearful when others are greedy and greedy only when others are fearful."
"The stock market is a no-called-strike game. You don't have to swing at everything--you can wait for your pitch."
"Whether we’re talking about socks or stocks, I like buying quality merchandise when it is marked down."Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett
