Benjamin Graham's Mr. Market analogy.An extremely useful concept, especially when
Market is panicking (& throwing out good Co's at bargain prices) & when
Market is too complacent (& awarding high valuations to hype and stories) https://twitter.com/RamBhupatiraju/status/1264769802511552512
Philip Fisher's hyper-focus on growth stocks (written 60 years ago). Very useful and mostly still applicable stuff on how to deeply analyze Growth Co's (except Stock based Compensation & Adjusted EBITDA of course
) https://twitter.com/RamBhupatiraju/status/1268393671982006274
Peter Lynch’s empowering writing on the edge of the individual investor when they invest in what they know (or can learn).https://twitter.com/RamBhupatiraju/status/1331466853387038725 https://twitter.com/RamBhupatiraju/status/1335802585727574016
Warren Buffet's & Pat Dorsey's explanations of Economic Moats. https://twitter.com/RamBhupatiraju/status/1228889186708738049
Seth Klarman's 2007 speech to MIT grads - about Investor psychology & Housing crisis (Speech given 11 days before the Market topped in ’07).I read this in early Sep 2008, which clearly explained what was going on even as the events were unfolding.

Clayton Christensen's writing on Disruptive Innovation (the focus of Innovators & the constraints of incumbents).Excellent Summary

Brian Arthur's 1996 article "Increasing Returns and the New World of Business". An extremely prescient writing on how things actually turned out in Tech in the next two decades. https://twitter.com/RamBhupatiraju/status/1261721541793980419
Bill Gurley's "Above the Crowd" posts from early 2000s on Software & Marketplaces.https://abovethecrowd.com/archives/ https://twitter.com/RamBhupatiraju/status/1225780193790513152
Adam Hartung’s writing on Trends & disruptive companies.His writing helped me to observe and give more importance to strong/sustainable ongoing trends, and in identifying/analyzing the Winners.

Ben Thompson's Aggregation Theory & Platform companies.Helped me truly understand the power of Digital & how these Winners are different from past.

Good returns are what we're after (in the end) but investing is much more fun when you learn the best concepts out there (from the great investors & business thinkers), blend them in to your own process to make it better.
Strong basics/concepts, pattern recognition and keeping your process updated is the recipe for good and sustainable results.
Anyway, this is a thread I enjoyed thinking about the putting together. Hope some people find it useful.
