  1. Interesting because Buffet thinks valuations are fine relative to where interest rates are. Latest U.S. earnings were strong. The Australian market has little going for it.

  2. I liked the article and very much agree on the quality businesses thesis. A point of correction is that from my reckoning the Montgomery Fund has tracked sideways for most of 2017 as well as 2016 as stated in the article. I have funds invested in several other ‘value investment’ managers who have managed somehow to achieve reasonable returns over the past 2 years.
