“The highest form which civilization can reach is a seamless web of deserved trust. Not much procedure, just totally reliable people correctly trusting one another.” – Charlie Munger
Xbridge Capital, founded by Mr. Eric Tan in 2022, integrates the value investment principles of Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffett, and Charles Munger with Li Lu’s insights. We aim for superior returns by investing long-term in high-quality companies with strong growth potential and trustworthy management. Our approach focuses on businesses with significant "economic moats" and sustainable competitive advantages, guided by Li Lu's principle of identifying exceptional investment opportunities. By adhering to these strategies, we build lasting value and navigate the investment landscape with patience and discipline.
"Assiduity is the ability to sit on your ass and do nothing until a great opportunity presents itself—even if years go by. It's the opposite of what most people are taught. That's why there are very few great investors. They are people who have assiduity to sit there and wait for the right pitch, and then when they swing, they swing very hard."
-- Poor Charlie's Almanack
"Investing is not a business of jumping at every opportunity that comes your way. Instead, it's about developing a patient and disciplined approach to identify truly exceptional opportunities, waiting for the right moment, and then having the courage to invest with conviction. This requires a deep understanding of businesses, the discipline to avoid emotional reactions, and the patience to wait for the right circumstances to align."
-- Li Lu, Himalaya Capital
