Description of Investment Philosophies |
This book deals with the philosophy behind the best investment strategies of all time. Investment philosophies are as unique as the individuals who practice them. In his latest endeavor, investment expert and NYU Stern School of Business professor Aswath Damodaran goes beyond investment strategies and looks at the individual underlying philosophies that support these techniques. He explores all of the time tested investment philosophies that have worked over the long run, and discusses the greatest investors who made these philosophies so famous. "Investment Philosophies" will expose readers to a wide range of investment philosophies so as to give them a sense of what drives investors in each philosophy, how they attempt to put these philosophies into practice, and what determines ultimate success.
In doing this, Damodaran provides an unbiased forum for the presentation of different investment philosophies, while supplying the tools the definition and measurement of risk, the notion of market efficiency and how to test for inefficiencies, and the components and determinants of trading costs and the empirical evidence for readers to make their own judgments on the investment philosophy that fits their specific investment goals and views of how markets work. Filled with valuable insights and expert advice, this book reveals various investment philosophies to a general audience of investors, not purely to professional investors. Aswath Damodaran (New York, NY) is Professor of Finance at New York University's Leonard N. Stern School of Business. He is the author of "Applied Corporate Finance" (Wiley: 0471330426) and "Investment Valuation" (Wiley: 0471414883).
