Book description
Praise for The Magnet® Method of Investing
"Rather than encouraging the scatter shot approach of broad
diversification, Jordan focuses on the rifle-shot Magnet® method of
identifying a limited number of quality stocks to improve your chances
of beating the market."
-Sam Stovall, Chief Investment
Strategist, Standard & Poor's Equity Research
"Jordan Kimmel is one of the brightest market observers out
there, and he is certainly a rising star that will be an important
person to follow marketwise for many years."
-Michael Burke,
Coeditor, Investors Intelligence, Inc.
"Jordan Kimmel's The Magnet® Method of Investing is an
amazing, detailed, and intuitive book. I especially enjoyed Jordan's
insights into diversification, the inefficient market, and identifying
stocks that are in their 'sweet spot.' Jordan's writing style is also
very straightforward and refreshing. He succeeds in taking complicated
subjects and explaining them in an insightful way. This is simply an
incredible book that is a must-read for both beginning and serious
investors."
-Louis G. Navellier, Chairman and founder,
Navellier & Associates, Inc.
"The Magnet® Method of Investing examines investing from
a different perspective than many investors often see, offering a
unique alternative to diversification. Jordan Kimmel has analyzed the
methods of the best investors through time and introduces his robust
stock selection process."
-David M. Darst, CFA, Managing
Director and Chief Investment Strategist, Morgan Stanley Global Wealth
Management Group
"We welcome Jordan's book as a valuable perspective on
investing. The Wall Street Transcript applauds money managers
like Jordan who explain their philosophies clearly, support them with
research, and back them up with performance data. This is a great
addition to any investing reading list."
-Andrew Pickup,
Publisher and CEO, The Wall Street Transcript
"The Magnet® Method of Investing takes on the important
issue of diversification, which has been oversold to Main Street. This
is yet another example of the need to 'go against conventional
thinking' if you want to achieve superior results."
-Stan
Weinstein, Editor and Publisher, Global Trend Alert
