The highlights

What this book actually gives you, in short.

  • 1

    Your own job and daily life show you good companies months before analysts write them up.

  • 2

    Sorts companies into six types — slow growers, stalwarts, fast growers, cyclicals, turnarounds, asset plays — because each needs a different holding period.

  • 3

    Warns that a good story is not research: you still have to check earnings, debt and inventory.
