Details
From the project READMEBuffett Value Compounder
Use this skill to apply Buffett-style business ownership analysis: buy understandable, durable businesses with strong economics and honest managers at prices below conservative intrinsic value.
When To Use
Use this skill when the user asks for:
- Long-term business-quality underwriting
- Moat and owner earnings analysis
- Intrinsic value and margin-of-safety review
- Whether a stock is a durable compounder
- A holding review for a long-term equity position
Trigger phrases include Buffett, owner earnings, moat, margin of safety, intrinsic value, quality business, and compounder.
Do Not Use When
- The user wants short-term breakout timing.
- The business is outside the circle of competence.
- Primary filings or enough operating history are missing.
- The thesis depends mostly on macro timing, technicals, or leverage.
Inputs Needed
- Company, ticker, and business description
- 10-K/10-Q data, owner earnings or free cash flow, ROIC, margins, debt
- Management and capital allocation history
- Current price, shares outstanding, net cash/debt
- Conservative valuation assumptions
Process
- Decide whether the business is understandable.
- Evaluate moat, durability, returns on capital, pricing power, and reinvestment runway.
- Review management integrity and capital allocation.
- Estimate conservative intrinsic value as a range.
- Demand a margin of safety before a buy verdict.
- Define thesis invalidation and monitoring metrics.
