Value Investing: From Graham to Buffett and Beyond (Wiley Finance)
What Is It About?
Value Investing is written by Bruce Greenwald, a professor at the Columbia Business School. As the title suggests the book is about value investing. The book is divided into three parts. They are: an overview of what is value investing; an examination of three methods to implement value investing; and case studies of several well known value investors and how they put into practice the tenets of value investing.
What Did I Get Out Of It As A New Investor?
This is a great book to get a solid grasp on value investing. While the The Little Book of Value Investing
The Good News
This is a great intermediate level book for the new value investor. It moves beyond the simple idea of a discounted cash flow analysis and introduces one to an understanding of how and where to find value.
The Bad News
This book is written by a college professor and therefore reads as a college text. While not excessively technical, this book is not one to be read straight through. The better approach would be to enjoy this book over a few weeks time to allow for consideration of the material as it is digest chapter by chapter.
The Bottom Line
I found this book helpful and feel it is a very good book to own for any investor who has an interest in developing a better understanding of value investing but who is not ready to tackle more advanced texts.

I have a web site where I give investment advise on penny stocks and stocks under five dollars. I would like to comment about penny stocks what most investors fail to realize about so called penny stocks is that stocks trading under 1 dollar are really not worth messing with the real bargains are stocks trading between 1 dollar and 5 dollars a share. I recenly sold my shares in vonage holdings corporation for 5 dollars. I bought the shares in 2009 for 37 cents. this was a rare exception to the general rule most of the stocks trading under 1 dollar are not good investments. the way that you find low priced stocks that are worthy investments is to have as much knowledge and experience as possible about these type of securities. only than can you profit tremendously from these stocks.
