Value investing is the well-respected, discipline investment approach that enables you to search out solid companies not yet discovered by most investors. Charles H. Brandes' Value Investing Today, Second Edition (a bestseller in its First Edition) now updates this long-term wealth building strategy with data, statistics, and examples drawn from today's financial press. This step-by-step guidebook shows you how to assemble a high-value portfolio positioned for maximum growth--and how to time each sale for maximum profit. Value Investing Today helps you sift through today's mountain of investment information to find those undiscovered companies with superior long-term potential. You can then build a portfolio of "sleeping giants"--companies that, because of a lack of market attention or a highly publicised failure, have intrinsic values not yet reflected in their stock princes. You know they're out there--Value Investing Today--shows you how to find them!
