An Introduction to Intelligent Investment Today

In this opening episode of Intelligent Investment Today, David Coombs introduces a disciplined, long-term approach to investing rooted in the principles of value investing.Inspired by Benjamin Graham, the father of value investing and mentor to Warren Buffett, this podcast focuses on thoughtful decision-making over short-term speculation. Rather than reacting to daily market noise, Intelligent Investment Today is about understanding intrinsic value, managing risk, and investing with patience and purpose.Across each episode, we explore how value investing principles apply in modern financial markets—from analysing businesses, balance sheets, and cash flows to understanding how market psychology, interest rates, and global events influence valuations. We also examine behavioural finance concepts such as Graham’s famous idea of “Mr Market”, helping investors recognise emotional biases that can undermine long-term success.This podcast is designed for investors who value discipline over prediction, analysis over speculation, and long-term thinking over short-term trading. Whether you’re a professional investor, a private individual managing your own portfolio, or someone seeking a deeper understanding of how markets truly work, Intelligent Investment Today offers clarity, perspective, and practical insight.This is not a podcast about forecasting the next market move.It’s about preparation, resilience, and investing with a margin of safety.So why not join us today?Support the show
