Joseph Carlson: a call with no clear direction

The window it was checked over

SBUX closing prices, adjusted for splits. The shaded span is the one-year window: it starts at the first close after the video went public and ends at the last close on or before one year after the day the video was published.

What was said around it

are when do we buy and when do we sell if we buy high quality investments but we buy them at the wrong time we may actually have inferior returns we may actually lose money by buying at the wrong time and selling at the wrong time and likewise if we buy at the right time and we sell at the right time we can have very favorable returns so a lot of investing comes down to not only what we buy but when we buy it and when we sell it and out of those questions i've been thinking about one in particular and that is when do we buy i recently purchased a pretty large position into starbucks this is a high quality company that's fallen down in price significantly from its peak but regardless i'm in the red by over four thousand dollars so far this looks like it could be a mistake and i've received a lot of feedback and a lot of comments over the previous episodes of how this may in fact be a mistake let me just highlight one of them for you this is a real comment left on one of the previous episodes the commenter here says joseph you're trying so hard to justify your purchase in the starbucks talk just like you did in alibaba i made a similar mistake in the past but learned quickly to cut my losses
