What the metric does
The 200-week moving average smooths price action over roughly four years of market history.
It helps long-term investors separate meaningful pullbacks from short-term volatility.
The Charlie Munger 200-week framework
A widely cited Munger idea is simple: buy high-quality stocks near the 200-week moving average. The point is not prediction. The point is discipline.
"If all you ever did was buy high-quality stocks on the 200-week moving average, you would beat the S&P 500 by a large margin over time."
This quote is widely circulated in financial commentary. Munger Monitor uses the method as an educational framework, not as a guarantee.
