103 - The Deflation Myth
The DIY Investing Podcast
The Deflation Myth has been accepted primarily because economists have used false assumptions in their analysis and because debtors, namely world governments, tend to hold massive political and cultural power. It is in their best interest to convince you that deflation is bad so that they can inflate away their debts. Yet, most investors are harmed more by inflation than they would be by deflation.

Why does Intrinsic Value grow over time?
There are multiple ways to answer this question.
- It doesn't. Intrinsic value is fixed, but your estimate of intrinsic value will change.
- Your assumptions were wrong because you made a mistake.
- Your assumptions were wrong because you can now see more of the future.
- A year moved from being inside Terminal Value to inside your forecast range.
What is Terminal Value?
- How is it calculated?
- Why does it matter?
- Terminal Value is the net present value of all future cash flows discounted back to a specific year in the future. (Perhaps 5 or 10 years from now)
- In other words, Terminal Value is your estimate of the Intrinsic Value of a stock 10 years from now.
- As each year passes, the "fog of war" that is the future becomes illuminated. That means that we can now *SEE* the future.
- Concept: True Historic Value
Summary:
Terminal Value is the net present value of all future cash flows discounted back to a specific year in the future. Intrinsic value is fixed, but your estimate of intrinsic value will change over time.
In addition, you can evaluate how the intrinsic value of a company has changed over time in the past by calculating the True Historic Value. This value is the intrinsic value at a past date assuming 10% future annualized returns all the way to the present.
