How to read a 10-K like a professional investor

If you want to be a great investor, you should like engaging with one of the essential tools in the trade: the 10-K. Warren Buffett has stated that he enjoys curling up with annual reports. Buffett said he "reads 500 pages every day" when asked how he became smarter. That's how, like compound interest, knowledge grows.

Indeed, savvy fund managers regard 10-Ks as riddles or treasure hunts, relishing the opportunity to pore over even the tiniest footnotes.

Individual investors may not have the same experience as a fund manager who reviews hundreds of these documents each year. This book is intended to assist individual investors in determining what to look for when selecting companies for their portfolios and analyzing the outlook for their present stock holdings.

Finally, if you don't appreciate the type of in-depth research discussed here, you should think about whether investing in individual stocks is the best use of your time. If you don't enjoy reading 10-Ks, you're probably not going to be a great investor.

We all love it. It's a passion we have. After reading this book, you may feel the same!
