The Top 3 Talent Dynamics Accumulators in the News

We continue the journey around the profiles with the Top 3 Accumulators in the News, based on Roger James Hamilton’s Talent Dynamics System. This group have seen a surge in their wealth as the global financial crisis has seen a shift from autumn to winter in the market cycle.

 Warren Buffett (USA) – Buffett has been in the Top 3 wealthiest in the world for many years, and is worth over $50 billion. He has followed a text-book accumulator strategy his entire life, and collects appreciating assets through Berkshire Hathaway. In the recent downturn, he has seen an upturn in his own wealth, as he has collected (and profited from) undervalued equities that have since risen in value.
Carlos Slim (Mexico) – Slim is the wealthiest person in the world, and, like Buffett, has focused in one area and stuck there. In Slim’s case, it is in undervalued assets in Mexico, where he has built a dominant position in state utilities, and amassed a fortune of $74 billion.
Li Ka-Shing (China) – Li is the richest person in East Asia, with a net worth of $24 billion. Again, his strategy has been the accumulator strategy of staying focused in one area, finding economies, controlling assets and rising with the tide. Li achieved this in Hong Kong, and continues to evolve his strategy based on cheap areas he can dominate and add value to.
Accumulators profit from downturns, and so make their money when times are tough. In the coming blog, Roger Hamilton will cover the Top 3 Traders in the News. The glory days of traders came and went in the last decade, but will return again.

“In the same way that the global economy has seasons, every country economy and industry also has seasons, which means somewhere in the world is the right place, right time for every profile. Success then, doesn’t begin with the choice of what to do. It begins with the choice of where to do it.”
– Roger Hamilton
