[New Year] Words of "the father of investing" Graham that I want to etch onto my chest
Warren Buffett once said the following.
“When I first read the original edition of Securities Analysis,
I was 19 years old.
I thought at the time, and I still think today,
that I had never read a book about investing as good as this.”

=================================
Happy New Year.
This is Shimoyama.
Because it’s New Year’s season,
many people are relaxing to their heart’s content by eating, drinking, sleeping, and watching TV,
and perhaps there are many who are
enjoying this freely.
On the other hand,
some may be remembering the work that starts next week
and feeling depressed.
“Oh, I wish New Year’s could last forever….”
There are many who probably think so, but…
“I want to spend 365 days, every day, in New Year’s mood.”
That earnest wish,can be fulfilled.
In fact, I myselflive a life 365 days a year in New Year’s mood
freely.
Wake up at any time you like, play games,
and when you’re sleepy, sleep again…
It isn’t that I’m doing some extraordinarily special work that only I can do.
“I’m trading stocks by following the rules.”
If you push it to the limit,that’s all there is to it.
And once you learn how to do it,
anyone can imitate it.
The new year, a turning point,is a perfect time to refresh your mood and
challenge yourself with new things.
It’s a perfect opportunity.
If you want to continue savoring your current New Year moodforever,
use this once-a-year moment and
for the sake of future pleasure,
take a small step toward new actions.
Why not give it a try?
If you continue along the same path,
you will never achieve a new life.
=====================
You don’t need financial analysis.
=====================
Now, changing the subject
What kind of year was 2019 for you?
For me, 2019 was a year in which I
re-examined the essence.
Normally, in Stock Academy, I constantly
convey the essence of stock trading.
To put it simply,
“What is truly important in stock trading?”
That’s the question I’ve been asking and
continually delivering the answer to.
In the world of investing,financial analysis,
fundamentals analysis,
and technical analysisare commonly used, and
many people have a kind of obsession with these methods.
“I must read Quick, the Four Seasons”
“I must check more news
and listen more to analysts
to become more knowledgeable about the global economy”
“I must study more technical analysis”
In this way,many of you are pushing yourselves.
Meanwhile,Stock Academy asks
“Is reading Quick, becoming knowledgeable about economic news,learning technical analysis truly necessary?
Is this the essence of stock trading?”
and begins to offer methods under the theme
of how to continuously earn profits in any market situation.
To be more specific,
financial analysis,technical analysis,
fundamentals analysis
are all unnecessary,
and there are other important things to consider.
Saying this,many people feel uncomfortable.
For example, denying “financial analysis” would also mean denying the investment method of
that world-renowned investor Warren Buffett.
=====================
Words of the father of investment, which I want to engrave in my heart
=====================
As I mentioned at the start, Buffett read the book Securities Analysis at age 19
and was deeply impressed.
Securities Analysis is a book written by
Benjamin Graham, known as the dean of Wall Street.
Probably you’ve heard the name somewhere.
He is the person who laid the foundation of financial analysis.
and Buffett followed the investment principles Graham established, yielding enormous profits.
That it is effective to use financial analysis is clear to anyone.
But, still, I’ll say it anyway.
“To make money in investing, you don’t need financial analysis.”
Rather than explaining the reasons in words, it’s faster to try trading yourself, so if you’re not convinced, please
come to Stock Academy’s trial seminar
to探求 that essence, but

One thing I want to tell you is
that Graham himself also stated the following.
=============================
This method was effective about 40 years ago,
when our textbook Securities Analysis first came out.
But the situation has changed completely since then.
In the past, stock analysts, with proper education, could be excellent professionals who discovered undervalued stocks through detailed analysis and research.
However, today with a flood of research reports,
even with as much effort as before,
you cannot always produce outstanding results commensurate with the costs.

=============================
In this era,you can search the internet and find information endlessly.
With information so abundant, no matter how thoroughly you perform financial analysis,
you can no longer gain an edge.
I wouldn’t say it’s 100% wasted, but
you won’t get a return equal to the effort.
=====================
Why Stock Academy has lasted eight years
=====================
And, precisely because we live in such an era, Stock Academy
continues with the motto of deliveringthe essence of investment that never becomes obsolete
in a semi-permanent, always relevant way.
Stock Academy opened in 2013
and is entering its eighth year of establishment.
If Stock Academy were teaching an investing method
to be crushed by the currents of time and disappear
it would have shut down long ago.
The world isn’t so forgiving that it would permit eight years of teaching methods
that make nobody money to continue.
On the internet,there are people who write bad things about Stock Academy.
But still,
Stock Academy continues to exist.
That’s because many people who have studied at Stock Academy
have transformed their lives.
You can see this for yourself by watching last year’s Buffett Award ceremony.

In 2020 as well, Stock Academy sincerely wants to help those who are serious about changing their lives, and will continue to operate faithfully.
We sincerely wish you all the best this year as well.
