Tom Hancock:在我看来,高质量投资是指投资于那些具有可持续高于平均水平盈利能力的公司。这些公司需要具备护城河和持久性,能够经受住不可预见的事件。这种长期保持盈利能力的能力,我认为是公司应该享有溢价倍数的理由。我们GMO并非仅仅追求低价格倍数,而是愿意为那些能够实现盈利增长的高质量股票支付更高的价格。从质量角度来看,如果只能选择一个指标,我会选择股本回报率。当然,在实际的会计数字中,需要谨慎地进行各种调整。但总的来说,我们关注的是未来。盈利能力指标的一个优点是,它们往往相当稳定。如果你购买高股本回报率的公司,那么在未来四五年内,这些公司往往仍能保持高股本回报率。 Tom Hancock:我们的流程首先从筛选股本回报率开始,这是我们考察的众多盈利能力指标之一。我们会考察过往的盈利能力,并且会考察较长的时间段,以避免被处于周期顶峰的公司所迷惑。我们还会考察盈利能力的稳定性,以及资产负债表,如债务与权益比率等。在筛选质量之后,第二步是进行基本面分析以验证质量,第三步是估值。我们会对每家公司进行合理增长建模,设定目标价格。盈利增长虽好,但每家公司的增长都有其极限,这限制了我们愿意为一家公司支付的倍数。我们不会购买任何非高质量的股票,但会以合理的价格购买高质量的股票。我们愿意持有股票到其公允价值,一旦股价超过公允价值,我们就会清仓。
