First Capital Realty (TSX:FCR)是加國市場上的一家地產公司,目前屬於同行業中的第一梯隊。我從一開始了解FCR,就比較喜歡這家公司,因為它的發展線路十分的明確,容易理解。
FCR在現在的管理層接手之前,主要合作對象是一家大連鎖商家,記不得是Sears還是Zellers,反正是不行了,所以當時經營不佳,債台高築,在被現管理層接手後,調整了發展方向,不但是走出了困境,而且成為了同行中的姣姣者。同樣的生意, 不同的人,可以有不同的結果。FCR的前管理層離開以後,又重新參與了新的公司 First Service Corp, 幹得相當的成功,同樣的人,不同的生意,也可以有不同的結果。
其實,我蠻羨慕像梁山,如山等能自己動手幹地產項目的人,因為在經濟利益之後,還能有很大的成就感。但是我知道我幹不了這樣的事。
這是多市東部地區的Chartwell Shopping Centre,以前有網友在投坦提到過,這原本是個老舊的小商場,FCR通過改造,將其更新為一個現代式樣的商場,這裏的一個重點是,照片上方的那一排店麵原先是一個工業建築,FCR通過購買改建,合並到原有的小商場,因為有大型華人超市入住,這徹底改變了原先的格局。我記得網友提到過,通過改變房產用途,可以使原有房產增值1500 萬。FCR有很大部分的業務是改造這樣的舊商場,因為城市的發展,人口的增加,這是個可以長期持續發展的業務,而FCR很擅長這項業務。
雖然,我自己動不了手直接參與城市的改建發展,但是通過股市,我也有機會可以間接的參與其中。
我不懂地產項目的實際投資,經營和管理,但是我懂一些股市投資,這是我自己所擅長的。
我用學習的投資常識來思考FCR的投資機會。
"Shares are not mere pieces of paper. They represent part-ownership of a business. So, when contemplating an investment, think like a prospective owner." - Warren Buffett
"Investment is most intelligent when it is most businesslike. “ - From Chapter 20 of Benjamin Graham's book The Intelligent Investor:
不需要花太大的精力,就可以理解, FCR是個蠻不錯的生意,有長期的盈利能力和發展機會。加國的長期城市發展和移民人口的增長,是確定無疑的。FCR的管理層的長期表現也是合格的,控股股東的利益也是完全與企業的未來經營發展融合的。
做為一門生意,FCR是值得投資的,而且是可以長期的。
Warren Buffett: “Price Is What You Pay, Value Is What You Get.”
FCR的股票價格長期以來,一直是不太便宜的,所以如果以市場均價買入,長期的投資回報也隻能是一般,而且在未來的市場波動中,長期持股會有難度。
如果,我可以用市場均價的一半建立FCR的長期持股倉位,是我比較理想的方式。在實際投資操作中,有可能實現這樣的長期投資目標嗎?我該怎麽做?

“If you look at the typical stock on the New York Stock Exchange, its high will be, perhaps, for the last 12 months will be 150 percent of its low so they’re bobbing all over the place. All you have to do is sit there and wait until something is really attractive that you understand.”
“There’s almost nothing where the game is stacked more in your favor like the stock market”
“What happens is people start listening to everybody talk on television or whatever it may be or read the paper, and they take what is a fundamental advantage and turn it into a disadvantage. There’s no easier game than stocks. You have to be sure you don’t play it too often”
簡單而言,在FCR一年低價區域買入股票,在一年高價區域賣出一半,可以接近我的長期持股的理想模式,所以機會是存在的,機會不多也不少,平均一年一次。
如果,在低價位大量買進以後,股票價格又跌了怎麽辦?
在思考FCR的投資可能性時,我考慮的第一件事是FCR商業模式的長期盈利能力,在這個前提下,當股票價格出現極度超跌時,
Buy as much as you can!
it's not risky to buy securities at a fraction of what they're worth. – Warren Buffett
2010年,芒格的演講 ART OF STOCK PICKING
It's not given to human beings to have such talent that they can just know everything about everything all the time. But it is given to human beings who work hard at it who look and sift the world for a mispriced be that they can occasionally find one. And the wise ones bet heavily when the world offers them that opportunity. They bet big when they have the odds. And the rest of the time, they don't. It's just that simple.
I've learned many things from him (George Soros), but perhaps the most significant is that it's not whether you're right or wrong, but how much money you make when you're right and how much you lose when you're wrong. - Stanley Druckenmiller as quoted in The New Market Wizards
The trouble with you, Byron [Byron Wein – Morgan Stanley], is that you go to work every day [and think] you should do something. I don’t, I only go to work on the days that make sense to go to work. And I really do something on that day. But you go to work and you do something every day and you don’t realise when it’s a special day. - George Soros

這裏隻是用最簡單的投資常識,來思考FCR的投資可能性。
