Soft Loan - A loan made at no interest or at a below market interest rate. Soft loans usually refer to loans made to developing countries and others in need of financing, but without the ability to borrow at the market rate. Soft loans may also have a longer grace period or a different amortization schedule that makes repayment easier. This is also called soft financing.
Sovereign wealth fund - A sovereign wealth fund (SWF) is a state-owned investment fund composed of financial assets such as stocks, bonds, property, precious metals or other financial instruments. Sovereign wealth funds invest globally. Some of them have grabbed attention making bad investments in several Wall Street financial firms including Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, and Merrill Lynch.

Market capitalization, often abbreviated to market cap, is a measurement of corporate size that refers to the current stock price times the number of outstanding shares. It denotes the total amount of funds used to finance a firm's balance sheet and is calculated as market capitalization plus debt (book or market value) plus preferred stock. Market capitalization is a function of the price of a firm's stock and may not accurately reflect intrinsic value. It is common for a firm's market capitalization to exceed "book value" (shareholders' equity) because market prices tend to increase at a quicker pace than earnings accumulate due to value placed on expected future growth.

Ticker - This is the company's trading symbol - a unique combination of letters which identifies the stock. You may find some newspapers that list an abbreviation of the particular company's name instead of the ticker symbol.
Intangible Assets - Companies often own things of value that cannot be touched, felt, or seen. These consist of patents, trademarks, brand names, franchises, and economic goodwill (which is different than the accounting goodwill we've discussed.
Economic goodwill consists of the intangible advantages a company has over its competitors such as an excellent reputation, strategic location, business connections, etc.). They are normally given completely meaningless values.
Current Assets on the Balance Sheet - This is where companies list all of the stuff that can be converted into cash in a short period of time, usually a year or less. Because these assets are easily turned into cash, they are sometimes referred to as "liquid".
Shares outstanding - are common shares that have been authorized, issued, and purchased by investors. They have voting rights and represent ownership in the corporation by the person or institution that holds the shares. They should be distinguished from treasury shares, which is common stock held by the corporation.

Deleveraging and the Global Financial Crisis (http://ezinearticles.com/?Deleveraging-and-the-Global-Financial-Crisis&id=1671533)
Deleveraging is the process describing the unwinding of debt. Companies often use leverage (i.e. borrowing) to stimulate their growth, but when they become concerned about defaulting ot about rampant losses, they are forced to use deleveraging in order to lower the risk of default and mitigate their losses.

The game of Chicken, also known as the Hawk-Dove or Snowdrift[1] game, is an influential model of conflict for two players in game theory. The principle of the game is that while each player prefers not to yield to the other, the outcome where neither player yields is the worst possible one for both players. The name "Hawk-Dove" refers to a situation in which there is a competition for a shared resource and the contestants can choose either conciliation or conflict.

Sovereign risk (http://www.anz.com/edna/dictionary.asp?action=content&content=sovereign_risk)
The extra dimension of risk involved in international, as distinct from domestic, transactions. Sovereign risk is an aspect of the credit proposal that is additional to the usual commercial risks such as credit, foreign exchange and transport risks, and is outside the individual borrower's control; it can override the borrower's willingness and ability to repay financial obligations, even though the borrower may be a government. Sovereign risk implies the possibility that conditions will develop in a country which inhibit repayment of funds due from that country, such as exchange controls, strikes or declarations of war. An international lender should (but does not always) compensate for perceived sovereign risk by adjusting the interest rate charged. International banks impose lending limits on their business with foreign countries, although that is not foolproof. Also country risk.

This one speech has explained the final continueing chapter I suspected all along and knew from all my Buffet , Munger and Fischer etc.. etc.. reading he confirmed what I knew and do. He makes no bones at challenging the classes thinking. It requires a massive amount of simple thinking. Not on high level. Knowledge is not the only key to reduce risks but also maximizing the investments hidden profit potential when no one else can see it. It is the insight that unlocks the huge profits. A value investor can tell anyone what he is doing but still escape most people. It is like watching a painter paint. But that doesn’t mean you can paint without dedicating the work to master the art of painting. Same with value investment. Ridiculous returns for great research.

To be a qualified analyst. He is an investor with a tremendous work ethic. Value investors see themselves as owners of a business. Therefore, fortunes are up and down with the nature of the business. Demand a margin of safety.

Traits of a Value Investor**
1. Don’t think of yourself as a paper shuffler who constantly buys and sells securities. You think of yourself as a real owner of the business.
2. Only own a small piece of the business, so you demand a huge margin of safety.
3. As an owner, not trading all the time, you think everyone else is different — like Ben Graham’s Mr. Market

On Value Investing**
-Under 5% of all assets are run under value investors, a real minority in the investment world.
-The stock market is created for the other 95% of people, that is where your opportunity and challenge is.
-Biggest challenge: understand whether you are the 5% or the 95%
-It is tempting to do what the other 95% of people do. Emotionally very difficult to be in the 5%, but value investors typically have better returns. The money is really for traders and they tend to amass more assets.
-5% have a spectacular return, but 95% of money probably always resides to somewhere else.
-If you are a value investor, you are probably genetically mutated and comfortable being in the minority. This is unnatural to human beings. You have to be comfortable being by yourself. You have to adopt the idea that you are right because your reason and evidence, not because others agree with you.
Analyst&Researcher&Journalist
-You will probably spend most of your time being an academic researcher rather than a professional. You are a researcher or journalist, with insatiable curiosity. You are trying to figure out how everything works.
-The more you know, the better you are as an investor.
-Politics, science, technology, literature, poetry, everything can affect businesses and help you.
-Occasionally you can find insights that will give you tremendous insights that other people don’t have.
-Then you find if the business is cheap. Is the management good? What else? Why is the opportunity there?
-Fall of 1998: Lu’s search process is very general. Got hooked on value line, loved to read the whole thing from beginning to end. The best kind of education, you should do this if you want encyclopedic knowledge of companies. Go through it page after page, it is enormously helpful.
-First thing Lu checks is new low list. New low P/Es, P/Bs, etc. (From "Standard&Poor 200")
-Does not care where something traded before.
-First looks at valuation. If the valuation doesn’t fit, doesn’t go beyond it. (Q: What is "Valuation"? Why is it helpful? How to valuate it?)
-If you see a low P/B ratio, ask – What is in the book? How much is the book?
Price-book ratio - Compares a stock's market value to the value of total assets less total liabilities (book value). Determined by dividing current stock price by common stockholder equity per share (book value), adjusted for stock splits. Also called Market-to-Book.
Intangible assets are defined as identifiable non-monetary assets that cannot be seen, touched or physically measured, which are created through time and/or effort and that are identifiable as a separate asset. Price to Book ratio or P/B. This measurement looks at the value the market places on the book value of the company. Like the P/E, the lower the P/B, the better the value. BV is considered to be the accounting value of each share. Market value is what the investment community's expectations are and book value is based on costs and retained earnings. One situation where BV can be useful is if the market value is trading below the book value, this rarely happens, but if it does it could mean that the company is undervalued and might be an attractive buy. (http://www.investopedia.com/university/ratios/bookvaluepershare.asp)
Formula:





-Encyclopedic knowledge is helpful when looking across different industries.
-Look at pre-tax and pre-interest earnings. Look from an un-leveraged basis. Figure out how much capital is deployed in the business. Look at ROIC.
An exchange-traded fund (ETF), also known as an exchange-traded product (ETP), is an investment fund traded on stock exchanges, much like stocks.
StarMine’s analyst awards: Judy Hong Goldman Sachs - focus on the process and discipline
-If you are not a good analyst, you will never be a good investor.

Be a Learning Machine
-When an investment opportunity comes, you have to seize it. Devote day and night so you can act quickly. Do everything complete but do it fast. You have to train yourself to jump on opportunity.
-When opportunity presents itself you can smell it. The only way to do that is by training yourself and reading page after page of financial report.
-Uses S&P manuals for viewing foreign stocks.
-As an owner, don’t think about per share information.
-Use your brain, when looking at stock manuals, each page should really only take 5 minutes. Don’t use calculators. Use mental math.
