A blueprint to successful value investing
Successful value investors have an ingrained mental framework through
which all investments decisions are made. This framework, which stems
from the father of value investing, Benjamin Graham-who believed that
investment is most intelligent when it is most businesslike-can put
you in a better position to improve the overall performance of your portfolio.

value-focused investment partnership inspired by the 1950s Buffett
Partnerships-The Business of Value Investing effectively
examines the fundamental tenants of this approach and skillfully
illustrates the six essential elements of the entire process. Opening

takes to become a successful value investor.
