An incisive and comprehensive exploration of value investing in the real world

In the newly revised second edition of Common Stocks and Common Sense: The Strategies, Analyses, Decisions, and Emotions of a Particularly Successful Value Investor, celebrated Wall Street value investor Ed Wachenheim walks readers through eleven revealing case studies of real-world investments made by the author's firm, Greenhaven Associates. Each case uncovers unique insights into the technical and human elements that go into any profitable investment transaction.

Dalla quarta di copertina

PRAISE FOR Common Stocks & Common Sense

“Ed Wachenheim has been an extraordinarily successful value investor for decades, and in this well written and engrossing book, he explains his investment approach through case studies, including investments that went well but also some that went badly. The key takeaways are that success requires intense commitment to research, a probabilistic mindset, and the temperament to remain rational in the face of market irrationality.”
—ROBERT E. RUBIN, Former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury

“Ed Wachenheim often emphasizes the great value of using one’s ‘common sense’ as an investor. But after he describes how he has analyzed every imaginable dimension and variable of several organizations before deciding whether to buy their stock, we quickly realize that there is nothing even remotely ‘common’ about his ability to be both prescient and wise. This is a fascinating and enlightening book that is completely accessible to the layman, and should be required reading for professionals.”
—NEIL L. RUDENSTINE, Former President of Harvard University

“Ed Wachenheim is a very successful investor who has never sought the limelight. He has written a book on investing which is a kind of confessional, talking openly about his stock picking experiences with humor and candor. Reading about his odyssey over the past several decades will prove to be a useful apprenticeship for both the novice and the experienced investor. I learned a lot and I’ve been doing it longer than he has.”
—BYRON R. WIEN, Vice Chairman, Blackstone Group LP
