Description
Summary:Benjamin Graham, the "father of fundamental investing," showed the way from speculation (based on tips, intuition , and guesswork) to investing as a disciplined, quantitative analysis of a company's fundamentals (such as earnings, dividends, assets, debt, financial structure, and the history of all these items over time). Benjamin Graham was himself a remarkably successful investor, and his prize student, Warren Buffett, applied Graham's principles to become perhaps the most successful investor in history. Growth investing seeks to spot companies entering a period of vigorous and rapid expansion. Pioneered by T. Rowe Price in the 1930's, this style has been well suited to capitalize on America's industrial boom after World War II, with the rise of such companies as Xerox, Microsoft, Blockbuster Video, Home Depot, and Liz Claiborne.
