Asset Pricing 2015 2013 2014 ∞?
Asset Pricing Firm Value = Cash Flow Next Year + Cash Flow The Year After + Cash Flow The Year After + Cash Flow The Year After + Cash Flow The Year After + Etc. *EXPECTED* Expected growth rate of 5% for 2013 Company reports an actual growth rate of 4% at the end of 2013, what happens? All things held equal, stock price will go down
Asset Pricing Expected growth rate of 5% for 2013 Company reports an actual growth rate of: 4%: Stock price goes down 5%: Stock price stays the same 6%: Stock price goes up Why? Because if a company’s stock value is just the sum of its future cash flows, then the future cash flows just became smaller, so stock value goes down. Investing is about finding a stock where your opinion differs from the opinion of all other investors (the EXPECTED performance opinion)
Asset Pricing So if I have to understand a company better than the experts to find a 6% growth rate when the experts expect 5%, how can I hope to compete as a college student? Pension accounting Tax Accounting GAAP Accounting There aren’t an infinite number of experts – small companiesaren’t as intensely followed Accounting has major flaws that hide value that not everyone has the time to sift through You are the expert
Asset Pricing Sanity Check 1.) The value of a firm, and thus the firm’s stock is determined by EXPECTED future cash flows for the rest of its life 2018 2013 2.) We look for investments where we have an edge on everyone else to find investments where the reality is going to be better than the expectation We’ll walk through an easy example of cheating GAAP accounting to find hidden value
Asset Pricing Investing is all about having a variant view- thinking differently than everyone else.
