Charlie Munger discussed his investment philosophy in an interview, stating that experiencing 50% level market fluctuations is quite normal during the long-term holding journey. The real test is: can you maintain a calm mindset during the few times of massive shocks that inevitably occur every one or two centuries?
Munger straightforwardly said that if you cannot face market halts with equanimity, you do not deserve to be a true shareholder and are destined to only achieve mediocre returns. This is not only about investment discipline but also about mental fortitude. Market ups and downs are like natural laws; truly excellent long-term holders understand how to stay composed like philosophers amid storms.
In the end, what sets apart the winners is not technical analysis but the deep-seated calmness and openness when facing volatility. This is the true foundation for cycling through periods and achieving extraordinary returns.
