Inside Supply Network (ASX:SNL) & National Tyre (ASX:NTD) ft. Raymond Jang

Inside Supply Network (ASX:SNL) & National Tyre (ASX:NTD) ft. Raymond Jang

National Tyre & Wheel Ltd (ASX: NTD) shares have been sold down while Supply Network Limited (ASX: SNL) has powered ahead. In this episode of The Australian Investors Podcast, analysts Owen Rask and Raymond Jang take a good hard look at the story behind these two companies. Supply Network sells trucks and bus parts under the Multispares brand in Australia and New Zealand. The business was founded by Harry Forsyth when he started selling spares for buses in the 1970s, he remains the majority shareholder with 30%. It strives to provide the biggest range, best quality parts at the best prices through its significant scale advantage, commitment to customer service and deep expertise. National Tyre & Wheel is Australia's largest independent tyre and wheel distributor, specialising in importing tyres and distributing them throughout Australia. NTD's business model has included buying other independent distributors in the hope of 'rolling them up' into what is now the leading independent brand. NTD's roots trace back to Terry Smith and Exclusive Tyres, which was the original and exclusive importer of Cooper & Micky Thompson tyres. It has operations around Australia, New Zealand and even South Africa. Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.

What's the best beach you've ever surfed? How did Pat's Systems Engineering degree get him into Wall Street and investment banking? What is robo investment advice & how does SixPark add value to investors? What is the future of wealth management and brokerage? How SixPark's mean-variance optimisation result in the selected ETFs Why doesn't SixPark invest in gold? What's most impactful for investors: automation, investment philosophy or security selection? What are the three most powerful behavioural biases? Why is it called "SixPark"? Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.

Kelly Partners' Brett Kelly on life, business and sacrifice

Kelly Partners' Brett Kelly on life, business and sacrifice

In addition to starting and running Kelly Partners, one of Australia's largest accounting networks, Brett is an avid reader, multiple author, Warren Buffett & Charlie Munger disciple, and somewhat of a polymath. Here is a list of the questions I asked Brett during our recording: If you could have dinner with one living person and you had to choose the restaurant, who would it be and where would you take them? What's one lifestyle hack you wish you knew 20 years ago? Did you grow up with an entrepreneurial streak, Brett? Was business and entrepreneurialism part of your childhood? How do you, Brett Kelly, think about personal sacrifice and growth? What led you to start Kelly+Partners in 2006? How did you know it was the right opportunity for you? What makes Kelly Partners so special? As you grow, your company may need to make more acquisitions, which may mean more of these decisions get made outside of you. Such as what's happened with Mark Leonard and his six business units. How will Kelly+Partners deal with those challenges? If you hand a new CEO one book, what would it be? Can you explain this to me and maybe reflect on the statement for yourself? "The great tension in life is the difference between who we are and who we want to be." If you could teach your child 1 thing about investing, what would it be? Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.

16,000 students & counting - Thanks!

16,000 students & counting - Thanks!

I interrupt our regular programming for a special update. Here’s a quick update on what we’ve been working on behind the scenes at Rask. Proper financial education is nearly impossible in Australia for the masses. We wanted to address that. Every day we check our total enrolments as a sign of hope, pride and achievement. Recently, we crossed 16,000 students enrolled in Rask courses. A massive achievement for us at Rask. That’s 16,000 families who have been positively impacted by our sensible, optimistic, focused strategies to help them out of debt and into long-term investing. Many of the courses on Rask are free. And we’ve just launched our biggest cluster of courses called Rask Roadtrip. It’s a series of 6 online short courses, covering investing for the first time, saving on tax, repaying debt, the psychology of feeling more positive about money, and a crash course anyone can use to understand and sort out their Super. These are all completely free. I say again - the Rask Roadtrip is entirely free. They are in addition to heaps of other free resources. If you’re worried about your mortgage or want to buy a property, take our debt course and property 101 course. Or if you want to invest for the first time but don’t know how we teamed up with Equity Mates for the official get started investing course. If you want to grow your wealth and do it in an informed way, our ETF investing course is the most popular course we have, teaching you the essentials of ETF investing. I think it’s the most popular ETF course in Australia. If you’re worried about interest rates on your car loan, have credit cards up eyeballs, loans to family or friends or maybe even Buy Now, Pay Later from Afterpay or Zip — take our debt course. It’s part of Rask Roadtrip. We’ll teach you the two easiest ways to pay down debt and get free help from an expert. The big reason I want to celebrate these milestones is that the world of long term investing is actually a very positive place, filled with opportunity and value creation. And learning to avoid the doomsayers and toxic armchair experts on tv or on social media is hard. And right now, more than I’ve seen in the past 10 years, things are scary for a lot of our family and friends. Job security, higher debt repayments and falling property and share prices are scary. ANZ and Finder research shows the number one stresser is a mortgage repayment, followed by groceries. I don’t think I’ve eaten an iceberg lettuce in 2022. Despite all the doom and gloom, you should know that you’re not alone. Our podcasts, memberships, free courses and online resources are here to support what is usually a solo journey. I get to speak to nearly 100,000 investors through these podcasts. But I also speak with dozens of Australia’s biggest fund managers, professional sporting teams, parents, private investors and folks pursuing FIRE. Everyone I talk to recognises the need for high quality education. Even if you don’t need to take a course on personal finance, chances are a friend, colleague or family member does. Please share any of our resources with your family and friends, knowing that it’s genuine and we’re not going to lead your loved one down the garden path. Learn more about your ad choices.

Psychology, gambling, investing & writing, a discussion with Graham Witcomb, CFA

Psychology, gambling, investing & writing, a discussion with Graham Witcomb, CFA

This conversation is fascinating in more ways than one. Probably the most interesting story was how Graham took steps to make his first ever investment in the deepest, darkest moments of the GFC. Graham bought $2,000 of shares in an investment bank (Macquarie, of all things), then took on a loan to participate in a capital raising ($15,000), and then took his capital and used more leverage to grow his total investment to around $50,000. As Graham attests, his first investment was mostly luck, not skill. However, it serves to set the scene for the direction of the conversation with Graham Witcomb and Owen Raszkiewicz: where psychology and mindset collide with value investing. Topics covered include: Where's the best place to ski in the world? (Graham doubles as a ski instructor) If you could pick 3 investing factors or ratios to study a company's financials, which you choose and why? What's the difference between investing and gambling? Why on earth did Graham invest in Macquarie during the GFC? How did Graham improve his investment writing, and why was it so important? Which biases do you think you're most impacted by, how do you know and what do you do to combat them? What are Graham's favourite books for learning about value investing? Graham's lessons learned from following CSL Limited (ASX: CSL), Sydney Airport (ASX: SYD) and Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK) for many years?

How do you go about valuing companies? How does Fidelity build a "360-degree view" of a company? What are the 2-3 key ideas other investors can learn from Paul's market-beating returns?

💰 A $1 million portfolio, how this CFP invests for income | Passive Income [4/5]

💰 A $1 million portfolio, how this CFP invests for income | Passive Income [4/5]

Drew and I walk through a full case study (see below) of a fictitious Australian couple, Ralph (52) & Jane (51), looking to generate passive income from a diversified portfolio. The result: Drew predicts this couple could retire on a generous yearly income if they can get to $1.2 - $1.6 million of investable assets before retirement. Does that sound like a crazy figure? Not so fast... Drew explains all of his findings and analysis in this episode of The Australian Investors Podcast. The case study - Ralph & Jane Jane (51) and Ralph (52) live in Brighton-Le-Sands, New South Wales in a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom house. Ralph is a sticky-fingered accountant, earning $110,000. He loves the Hawthorn Hawks in the AFL (obviously) and spends his weekends watching their two boys play sports. Jane is a Midwife in Sydney, working 7 days of night shift every fortnight. She earns $115,000, also on PAYG. Jane uses some of her days off to volunteer at the Foodbank, encouraging her two sons to get married and have children.

💰 10 investing mistakes (you need to avoid) | Passive Income [3/5]

💰 10 investing mistakes (you need to avoid) | Passive Income [3/5]

In this Passive Income podcast episode, Owen & Drew talk about the most common (and painful) investing mistakes made by investors. Whether you're investing in ETFs, shares, Bitcoin or property, this podcast will help you avoid the most common investing mistakes. Here's a list of Drew's most common mistakes: Assuming bigger is better - but I love my Commonwealth Bank (ASX: CBA) and Westpac Bank (ASX: WBC) shares! Focusing too much on costs & fees - though low costs are good, they're not everything Tax-driven investments don't always work - negative gearing means you're losing money Naïve diversification - having two ETFs doing a similar thing is not diversification Adding random assets & following the next hot theme - the hype is not a bonafide strategy Not having a real strategy in place - avoid being a collector, a plan might only be one or two pages Assuming every asset always goes up - it doesn't Looking too often at performance - Drew & Owen would be lucky (unlucky) to check their brokerage account once a month! Get rich quick - emu eggs anyone? Giving in too soon, or changing strategy in the short-term - buy and hold only works if you and hold! Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.

Gaurav Sodhi, the stories we tell & profiting from ESG | The Australian Investors Podcast

Gaurav Sodhi, the stories we tell & profiting from ESG | The Australian Investors Podcast

Gaurav Sodhi is Deputy Head of Research at Intelligent Investor, an investor and prolific investment writer. Given that I have followed him for many years, speaking to Gaurav Sodhi on The Australian Investors Podcast was a real treat for me. Note: given that Gaurav wanted to walk around to make cups of tea and do a family puzzle while being interviewed by me, we did this interview as audio-only. I'm incredibly surprised he could answer some of my most difficult questions while doing such things! I think it goes to show well Gaurav can juggle multiple ideas at one time! Gaurav Sodhi is Deputy Head of Research at Intelligent Investor, arguably Australia's leading independent ASX stock research and membership program. Gaurav started his working career as a researcher and then, through a chance interview, he came across while driving across New Zealand with a friend (featuring Platinum's Kerr Neilson), Gaurav's spark for investing took flight. It then took him two years to land a job at Intelligent Investor. In this episode, I -- Owen -- and Gaurav talk about: The power of economics in explaining the world How drug cartels are similar to McDonalds The power of writing for investors The tricks and games used to recruit analysts Why Guarav isn't fazed by ESG and ethical investing Why value investing needs to evolve to include storytelling Some of the stocks mentioned in the discussion include: Whitehaven Coal Ltd (ASX: WHC) New Hope Corporation Ltd (ASX: NHC) Uniti Group (ASX: UWL) Telstra Corp (ASX: TLS) Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ: META) McDonald's Corporation (NYSE: MCD) Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO) Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.

🏋️ Investment checklists | Free investment checklist downloads [10/10]

I firmly believe that being good at long-term investing is as much about 'the artful' as it is about 'the science'. However, too much of one and not enough of the other can lead you astray. For example, if you believe the best way to invest is to take 5 stock valuation ratios and buy the shares, you will be rudely surprised. Conversely, if you disregard profitability or management's capital allocation, your portfolio will probably become the graveyard of empty promises. Stepping backward for a moment, if we also consider that investing is also a deeply personal endeavour, we then have to appreciate behaviour plays a very big role in our outcomes. Since every human being is fallible, even Warren Buffett or Elon Musk, using some type of scientific rule to keep us on track is important. For me, using an investment checklist that allows me to filter companies, track my results and improve over time is paramount. I use a 5-point investment checklist (which is included as a PDF in the show notes) to remind me that I'm looking for companies I understand, with competitive advantages, good management, some growth -- and a reasonable valuation. When it comes to individual companies, I use another checklist. The full checklist includes 40-50 different points, targeting these 5 areas. We built the checklist using our experience in finding good companies and also from our failures. The checklist helps us score companies across every one of our 5 areas, while also spotting for errors. In the show notes, I have included a small snippet of the checklist. This snippet only shows one part of the checklist, on a company's product, and gives you an illustration of what we do. I cover the full checklist, using examples like ARB Corp (ASX: ARB), Xero Limited (ASX: XRO) or Magellan Financial Group (ASX: MFG), in our Value Investor Program.

🏋️ Luke Winchester's 5 reasons to follow ASX small caps & 3 questions for every CEO

🏋️ Luke Winchester's 5 reasons to follow ASX small caps & 3 questions for every CEO

🏋️ Click here to download Owen's free Investor Bootcamp training manual In this Investor Bootcamp episode on The Australian Investors Podcast, Owen and Luke dive into the exciting and often volatile yet fascinating segment of small company investing. After that, Owen and Luke talk about the importance of assessing management teams. Owen asked Luke to prepare his 5 favourite reasons why small company investing is compelling and the 3 questions he always asks management. Here's what Luke Winchester said: Luke's 5 reasons to look at small caps: Less coverage from analysts and media commentary Simpler business models, usually only one product/service and geography Companies are usually underearning, so classic valuation metrics (P/E, DCF) don't work well, forcing you to think deeper about business and valuation There is a bigger variance in outcomes, which means analysis can add more value (when correct!) It's easier to access management, as most small-cap CEO's are happy to chat about their business even with small retail shareholders. Luke Winchester's key questions for management are: Who are your competitors and why would customers choose them? What are the biggest challenges facing the business over the next year or two? How are you judging your performance internally and how can I track that externally?

🏋️ Our 10 favourite investor websites & newsletters

🏋️ Our 10 favourite investor websites & newsletters

When I (Owen) started my investing journey I was so privileged to be surrounded by great writers who doubled as great analysts, at The Motley Fool. The likes of Bruce Jackson, Joe Magyer, Matt Joass, Claude Walker, Andrew Page, Mike King, Scott Phillips, Ryan Newman… For the record, growing up I was never a reader. Never. Ever. Pick up a book and read? No, thanks! I stayed that way until I discovered investing in my late teens/early 20s. So it was here, during my time at the Motley Fool, that I developed an insatiable appetite not only for investment research but reading and writing. Fortunately for you, the investing world has changed for the better since I started. New investor newsletters and websites have emerged to help their authors -- and you -- invest better.Here is a list of Raymond and my favourite investing newsletters and/or websites for aspiring analysts. 🏋️ Owen's Investor Bootcamp training manual: https://bit.ly/rask-analyst Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.

Can property beat inflation, ft. Invesco’s Max Swango

Can property beat inflation, ft. Invesco’s Max Swango

Max is a founding partner and managing director with Invesco Global Real Estate, which manages around $80 billion across the US, Europe and Asia. Max and I talk about the challenges facing the global property market then dive into particular opportunities such as the ‘retail apocalypse’, rising inflation and interest rates, as well as the key sectors Max is most excited about. Over the past 12 months, the conversation around inflation and interest rates has been the key talking point for most asset allocators, and investors with established portfolios. Which assets can I use to deflect the impact of rising rates? What about my yield? Max addresses some of those points through the lens of property, walks us through the active versus passive debate, how he would research a property fund, the macroeconomic picture around the world, and more. To start, I ask Max for the name of the investor he has learned the most from. Watch the video version on the Rask Australia YouTube page.

🏋️ Investor Bootcamp | 10 weekends to become a better investor

🏋️ Investor Bootcamp | 10 weekends to become a better investor

Welcome to the Investor Bootcamp mini-series on The Australian Investors Podcast. Document: Analyst Bootcamp Training Manual - https://bit.ly/rask-analyst Over the coming 10 weekends, I’m going to take you on a journey to become a better investor. Every Saturday, 7 am, starting next week, I’m going to be joined by one or more expert guests you will know from the series thus far. I’ve carefully selected these guests and the topics we’ll be covering. Also as part of the episodes, I’ll share with you the best resources I’ve come across for accelerating your learning. So why are we doing this 10-part series? I think that now, more than at any time in the past 20 years, direct stock investors will need to understand valuation at a more technical level. As Morgan Housel said: “The most underrated investing skills are controlling your emotions and having your career coincide with a 30-year decline in interest rates.” With interest rates finally on the way back up, the valuation of businesses, bonds and real assets will become more important. But as Warren Buffett once said, “It's only when the tide goes out that you learn who has been swimming naked.” For many investors, it finally feels like the tide is going out. Easy returns driven by falling rates on speculative assets like crypto, venture capital, technology stocks, highly geared companies, property and even bonds. Some people might say that value investing can now finally have its time to shine. Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway is back to catching up to famed investors like Cathie Wood’s ARK Innovation ETF as momentum and growth investors wonder about a recovery. So where does this leave investors who are wearing big losses in innovative but richly valued businesses? For many, we’re questioning our growth-first strategies. Are tech stocks really worth what I thought? Is it time to diversify my portfolio across industrial companies trading at lower valuations? After all, you can construct an all-weather diversified long-term portfolio from richly valued, high-quality companies. Or you can build a portfolio from lower-quality companies at lesser valuations. Lately, many investors seem to be opting for the deeper value style companies and portfolios. However, there’s one big problem with this approach: you need to have a strong grip on valuation. You need to understand how securities or investments are valued and then adjust your models to the current macro environment. According to Harvard Business Review: “Imposter syndrome is loosely defined as doubting your abilities and feeling like a fraud. It disproportionately affects high-achieving people, who find it difficult to accept their accomplishments. Many question whether they’re deserving of accolades.” I believe that over the past 10 years we have seen many talented investors enter the market and begin their investing journey. Indeed, around 70% of Rask members have been investing for less than 10 years. However, during that time we’ve experienced a massive bull market. Now, with markets becoming more volatile, it leads me to believe that many of our fellow listeners could be doubting their conviction in their abilities to find, research and model companies.

Our top 10 doses of Warren Buffett wisdom

Our top 10 doses of Warren Buffett wisdom

Owen Rask is joined by Drew Meredith, CFP to reflect on Warren Buffett's latest Berkshire Hathaway (BRK) shareholder letter and share 10 pieces of Buffett's wisdom. 5 of Owen's favourite Buffett ideas are as follows: Buffett the teacher & the Orangutan effect. Teach a monkey and you'll be a better investor. Closing the market for 5 years anchors you to valuation, not price. "Favorable long-term prospects" and what it means. It doesn't mean themes or sectors. It means strong franchises. Staying invested - Buffett has $US144 billion of cash! He's wanted to be 100% equities since the 1960s! Focus on Owner earnings - increasing asset values & dividend income are what matter. Drew's 5 Buffett's insights: Work-life balance doesn't get you ahead. Buffett eats annual reports for breakfast. Buffett does business-picking, not stock-picking. Compounding returns, not indexing. Buffett is a private equity investor. Buffett's big four & true diversification in action. Insurance & Statutory fund; Apple, Railroads and Energy. Decarbonising the world is going to start at the top. Resources: Buffett's annual letters Drew's article for Wattle Partners Owen's article for Rask Buffett's GEICO research from 1951: Get in touch with Owen or Drew: Owen's Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/owenrask Send Drew an email via Wattle Partners: http://www.wattlepartners.com.au/contact-1 Like it?
