What type of stocks that give the highest returns?
Somebody asked Warren Buffet value stocks or growth stocks gave better returns?
Warren Buffet replied they are at the hip.
Peter Lynch made a career out of Chrysler. Peter went regularly to visit Chrysler to find the probability of it turning around.
If it declared bankrupt lots of jobs will be lost. It is seeking funding from the government.
Peter Lynch convinced the CEO Lee Iacocca had the ability to turnaround the company, so he put the highest amount of fund in the company. Later it multiply many times.
A lost making company which turnaround and grow usually gave the highest returns.
Many successful corporations were found during depressed time where everything is cheaper, like microsoft.
Asia Foods and Properties Ltd is in the cyclical industries. It lost hundred millions of dollars during recessions, later when it turned around from 4.5 cents it moved to more then $1.5.
