Why Moat Investing Beats Cheap Stocks in May 2026

from The Value Investing Podcast with Fexingo: Buffett, Graham, and Long-Term Stock Picking · host Fexingo

Lucas and Luna challenge the assumption that value investing is just buying the lowest price-to-book stocks. Using 2026 market data, they examine why the strongest total returns are coming from companies with sustainable competitive advantages—moats—rather than traditional deep-value plays. They discuss the 2026 performance of the iShares S&P 100 ETF compared to the Russell 2000, the earnings stability of Microsoft and Visa, and how rising interest rates are separating moat businesses from value traps. Plus, they consider what the Buffett indicator—total market cap to GDP at 190% of GDP—means for long-term portfolio construction today. #ValueInvesting #MoatInvesting #CompetitiveAdvantage #IntrinsicValue #Buffett #IWD #RUT #Microsoft #Visa #InterestRates #ValueTrap #LongTerm #StockPicking #QualityStocks #May2026 #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Finance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
