T. S. Eliot Quotes, Typewriters Quotes, Long Quotes

You should be unconcerned about short-term price action when you own the securities directly, just as you were unconcerned when you owned them indirectly through BPL. I think about them as businesses, not "stocks", and if the business does all right over the long term, so will the stock.

Countries trade with each other - or to be more precise people buy and sell from each other across frontiers - because that is the way to advance their interests.
