Reseñas de la Crítica

"John Heins and Whitney Tilson, co-founders of the Value Investor Insight newsletter, have done a thorough job of explaining how to look for stocks that are trading at significant discounts to what they are worth - the concept known as the value style of investing.… the authors present a clear framework for ferreting out undervalued companies." ( The New York Times)

The book of Quotes

the book is gathered quotes from value investors. Not recommended to buy it vut good to lessen.

Great book with different opinions

the book presents different views from different investors, even contradictory ones, which emphasizes the point that you have to decide what style fits you best, and be consistent with that approach.

Reader, reads too fast.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. Great tid-bits and take aways, insights thoughts on how advance investors think.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Walter Dixon?

I thought it was read too fast for me. And the android Audible app has no .75x speed. A little strange considering there is a .5x, 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, 2x, and yes a 3x speed.(Chipmunk speed lol!).

Would have been better if

Would have been better, more enjoyable, if a train of thought was followed through. As it is the book is boring and difficult to listen to, in spite of excellent narration.

I would not recommend this as a book to listen to.

Collection of quotations with no narrative

This could be a nice hard cover book to own. You could flip through the pages for quotes from investors you are familiar with, and mull over the different perspectives.
But a collection of quotations with no narrative to pull them together makes for a strange audio book. I would advise that this book be enjoyed in a different format.

great for quotes not great for audiobook

like the authors a lot but book is too much quotes not enough insight or analysis. fine but not great

Just a collection of 2-3 line quotes

When I read the other reviews mentioning that it's a collection of quotes from other investors, I didn't realize that is all it has. I thought it'd have some other content too. But it truly is just a collection of 2 to 3 line quotes from other investors/fund managers.
