"Cited by Warren Buffett as one of the books that most influenced his investment style" according to Technophile. I was at the 2012 Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting when one of the attendees asked Warren Buffett which books were most instrumental in forming his investment philosophy. Mr. Buffett mentioned two books. The first, "The Intelligent Investor" was no surprise, as Mr. Buffett often cites this book, written by his mentor Benjamin Graham. The second book Mr. Buffett mentioned was "Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits" by Phil Fisher. Whereas "The Intelligent Investor" is about identifying value stocks, this book is about identifying growth stocksTo a large degree. Excellent Forword, Good Read Susan M. This is a very in depth read. I really liked the insight of the author given by Ken Fisher.Given my deep interest in investing I choose this type of book over many others but ifyou're a beginner investor it may be long and dry in detail. If that's the case start with PeterLynch or Jim Cramer. Fascinating that he recommended Dow Chemical in 1956, and stillis an excellent company to invest in today.. Great book I could recognize a lot of the mistakes I was making earlier as an investor into this book. In particular the fallacy of trying to time the market by being in and outPlus refraining from buying or selling due to a small price/cost difference.
