This title presents brand-new ways to apply the ideas of two investing giants. The practice of value investing has spawned a large number of highly successful investors since it was first introduced in the 1930s. It has also been the subject of a number of popular books including Benjamin Graham's own works, such as the seminal "Security Analysis". While other value-investing books introduce a new variation on the value-investing theme, "Applied Value Investing" adopts the modern Graham and Dodd approach and applies it in a variety of unique and practical ways. Sophisticated investors will learn innovative new ways of applying a value-investing approach to mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and alternative investing. This in-depth guide uses detailed case studies demonstrating how Graham and Dodd insights can be used in a macro-investing framework and applied to the emerging area of super- catastrophe valuation. It also shows financial analysts, money managers, and other professionals how to incorporate valuation in general into an integrated business analytical framework.
