Howard Marks：The Most Important Thing, Excerpt 5

Our goal is to generate performance that is average in good times (although we’ll accept more) and far above average in bad times. If in the long run we can accomplish this simple feat (which time has shown isn’t simple at all), we’ll end up with (a) above-market performance on average, (b) below-market volatility, (c) highly superior performance in the tough times, helping to combat people’s natural tendency to “throw in the towel” at the bottom, and thus (d) happy clients. We’ll settle for that combination.
