Tagged: Bottom-up manager Dodge & Cox’s domestic equity and fixed-income performance slumped at the end of 2007, but don’t be quick to point a finger at the credit crunch.
Value equity managers across the board were hurt in 2007 when the credit crisis rocked the markets, particularly managers with high exposures to financial stocks. Dodge & Cox, however, was underweight financials relative to its peers and the S&P 500 benchmark, but still underperformed, said Daniel Culloton, senior mutual fund analyst at Morningstar Inc., Chicago.

Tagged: Warren Buffett is the only person who predicted what is happening on the markets at present. The current upheaval was not sparked by economic processes, such as the US real estate crisis, which is neither that country's first crisis nor its last, although everyone finds it a very convenient peg to hang all the current troubles on. What is happening now is a financial air pocket which evolves during the course of healthy global economic processes, and Buffett predicted this bubble two years ago.

As investors, we're interested in uncovering stocks that Mr. Market, for whatever reason, has mispriced. Hey, we're opportunists, right? After all, ferreting out value before the "smart" money does is the name of the game if you want to beat the market.

Tagged: Walter Schloss has lived through 17 recessions, starting with one when Woodrow Wilson was President. This old-school value investor has made money through many of them. What's ahead for the economy? He doesn't worry about it.
A onetime employee of the grand panjandrum of value, Benjamin Graham, and a man his pal Warren Buffett calls a "superinvestor," Schloss at 91 would rather talk about individual bargains he has spotted. Like the struggling car-wheel maker or the moneylosing furniture supplier.
