Isenberg, Chairman of the Board, Nabors Industries, Inc. "Value Investing: A Balanced Approach is a must read for all thoughtful investors interested in a rational, disciplined, risk-averse template for successful long-term compounding. Bravo, Marty." - O. Mason Hawkins, CFA, Chairman, and CEO, Southeastern Asset Management, Inc. and The Longleaf Partners Fund "This author knows whereof he speaks. His many years of extremely successful experience as a professional manger of investments, his academic training, and his period of teaching at a major university all make their mark on this illuminating volume. It reveals how a bright, analytically minded person with extensive practical experience studies and evaluates investments." - William J. Baumol, Professor and Director, C.V. Starr Center, NYU, Professor Emeritus, Princeton University "This book by an experienced and practicing master, Martin Whitman, is a treasure amd a reference book on how to think and feel like an owner of a business without the headache of running it day to day." - Papken S. Der Torossian, Chairman and CEO, Silicon Valley Group, Inc. Zusammenfassung Mit diesem Buch haben die Autoren einen Meilenstein geschaffen, der das Thema Investment im realen Kontext behandelt. Das, was gegenwärtig an Universitäten mit dem Schwerpunkt Preisentwicklung und Short-term Trading (kurzfristige Investitionen) gelehrt wird, geht nach Auffassung der Autoren weit an der Praxis vorbei. Gewinne aus Investitionen hängen heute vielmehr davon ab, was an der Wall Street geschieht, von Unternehmensrestrukturierungen sowie von Mergern und Akquisitionen. Dieses Buch sagt Investoren, wie sie diese Faktoren interpretieren und nutzen können, um aktiv Gewinne einzufahren. (11/97) Inhaltsverzeichnis DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO THE INVESTMENT PROCESS.
