WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN

Podcasts About Investing

There are a lot of Aus­tralian invest­ing pod­casts. We rec­om­mend you lis­ten to all of them to find the approach that is right for you.

Our pod­cast is pri­mar­i­ly about “val­ue invest­ing”, the style of invest­ing made famous by peo­ple like War­ren Buf­fett.

Tony Kynas­ton, who I think of as “Aus­trali­a’s War­ren Buf­fett”, has devel­oped a val­ue invest­ing check­list that helps us find good qual­i­ty com­pa­nies whose shares we can buy at a rea­son­able price. But if you don’t have the dis­ci­pline to learn that approach, maybe start with “The Sam­marti­no Method” — invest­ing in index funds.

 

BEST INVESTING PODCASTS

If you’re look­ing for the best invest­ing pod­casts, there’s a few things we think you should look for.

1. ARE THEY PROFESSIONALS?

 

It’s fine to talk about ideas and the­o­ries, but I real­ly want to lis­ten to some­one who makes a liv­ing invest­ing, has invest­ed across mul­ti­ple cycles (ie bull and bear mar­kets) and whose port­fo­lio has per­formed well regard­less of which cycle the mar­ket is in.

Tony’s port­fo­lio has deliv­ered an aver­age of 19.5% per annum for over 25 years, which is War­ren Buf­fet ter­ri­to­ry.

There’s a lot to be gained from lis­tened to finance jour­nal­ists and peo­ple who work in funds or bank­ing, but, as War­ren Buf­fett says “Wall Street is the only place that peo­ple ride to in a Rolls Royce to get advice from those who take the sub­way.”

2. IS THERE A SYSTEM?

 

If you don’t have a sys­tem to fol­low, one that removes the emo­tion and focus­es on the facts, it’s easy to get pulled along with the cur­rent. Remem­ber that if you want to learn to invest like War­ren Buf­fett, you have to be counter-cycli­cal. The great thing about Tony’s QAV sys­tem is that he pro­vides us with a check­list that we can all fol­low. It’s a step-by-step guide to find­ing val­ue stocks to invest in.

3. ARE THEY SELLING SOMETHING?

 

A lot of pod­casts and cours­es are try­ing to sell you their fund, their stock­broking ser­vice, or their book. And there’s noth­ing wrong with that, as long as you know what you’re get­ting. We also have a pre­mi­um pod­cast for hard­core investors, but our main show is, and always will be, free. We aren’t run­ning a fund or invest­ing cours­es. Tony is a very suc­cess­ful pri­vate investor and does­n’t want (or need) your mon­ey.
