Hi,
Seekingalpha's Article The "Four Filters" of Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. Warren Buffett and his business partner Charlie Munger are two great example of value investing.
In the article Warren Buffett has talked about the Four Filters in several ways. This behavioral sequence is always similar [1]: Charlie and I look for companies that have a) a business we understand; b) favorable long-term economics; c) able and trustworthy management; and d) a sensible price tag.
These ideas sound so simple. Many people hear them at the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting in Omaha each year. The article gives more detail about the four filters in five Chapters.

Warren Buffett Acting
Hi,
CNBC's Buffett watch posted Warren Buffett Returns to Daytime TV With 'All My Children' Cameo. Warren Buffett the billionaire’s investor will be returning to daytime television with a cameo appearance on another venerable soap opera, ABC's All My Children.
He will be playing himself, making a jailhouse visit to that show's 'vixen', Erica Kane (played by Susan Lucci), who has been accused of insider trading.
Despite many years of run-ins with the authorities, CNBC were told Erica's innocent this time around. That's a relief, as we wouldn't want to see Buffett squander his hard-fought reputation for honesty by coming to the aid of a common crook.
