True story · Graham's net-nets

Buying a dollar for fifty cents — by the basket

Graham's signature operation was mechanical and unglamorous: buy companies trading below their "net-net" working capital — cash, receivables and inventory minus every liability — so the buyer effectively paid nothing for the factories, the brand or the future. Each one was a discarded cigar butt with one free puff left.

Any single net-net could disappoint, so Graham never relied on one: Graham-Newman held dozens at a time, selling each as it returned to fair value. Across three decades, through depression aftermath and war, the diversified baskets earned roughly 20% a year — built from stocks nobody else wanted.

A screen's edge comes from discipline and diversification across the basket — not from any single thrilling pick.

True story · John Templeton, 1939

Buying everything under a dollar as the world went to war

In 1939, as war broke out in Europe and pessimism was total, young John Templeton borrowed $10,000 and placed one order: 100 shares of every NYSE and AMEX stock trading below $1 — 104 companies, 34 of them already in bankruptcy proceedings. He picked nothing; he priced despair across an entire basket.

He held for about four years and roughly quadrupled the money. Only four of the 104 positions went to zero. The systematic rule — maximum pessimism, wide diversification, a fixed holding period — did the work that stock-picking brilliance could not.

At the point of maximum pessimism, breadth and a written rule beat selectivity and nerve.
