Lawrence Cunningham is one of today's leading authorities on value investing.In "What Is Value Investing?" he provides you with the knowledge and tools you need to make value investing a profitable part of your financial strategy, showing you how to: measure the true value of a stock, not the value given to it by an emotion-driven marketplace; uncover and avoid companies that look impressive but hide serious problems; invest only in companies that fall within your "circle of competence" - products and companies you truly understand; and, use the eight key rules of value investing to screen every stock for value before you add it to your portfolio.Value investors don't simply buy low-priced shares; they invest in solid, proven companies.
