What is Guru Gems about?

With Guru Gems, I study the world’s best long-term investors and share what I learn.

Every week, I analyze legendary investors like Warren Buffett, Terry Smith, Chuck Akre, and Joel Greenblatt—breaking down their strategies, dissecting their latest moves, and applying their wisdom to build two real-money portfolios:

  • Guru Gems Portfolio: High-quality companies held for years

  • Magic Formula Portfolio: Good companies at bargain prices held for one year

Started in April 2025 with a simple goal: learn from the masters, document everything, and see if I can outperform the market by cloning the best.

Whether you’re new to investing or trying to build a better portfolio without reinventing the wheel, Guru Gems aims to bring you timeless lessons and insights in a simple, transparent format.
