Features: The strategies described in the book apply new methods, including: how to measure the risk of holding a specific stock, analyzing analysts, stock valuation, how to set target prices, industry analysis, business plan analysis, financial health assessment, how to leverage sales expectations, analyzing profitability, detecting accounting fraud, and when to sell, etc. This book is suitable for a wide range of stock investors and related researchers. You may have read many investment books, but the wonderful concepts and strategies in them leave you feeling helpless because they don’t tell you how to implement these brilliant ideas. This book focuses on describing two practical strategies for systematically searching, researching, and valuing potential stock picks—one for growth stock investors and one for value stock investors. These are essentially two similar strategies, but the analysis processes are quite different. When value investors sell, growth investors are buying. Therefore, value and growth stock investors are unlikely to hold the same stocks. However, despite the differences in the two strategies, they use the same set of analytical tools.
