The principal message to investor readers is that those value investors who properly research and then patiently apply this research will achieve superior investment returns in the long-term.

Value Investing Techniques

The techniques highlighted in the Little Book of Value Investing are the opposite of aggressive investment strategies. The Little Book techniques emphasise patience to generate long-term value.

The Little Book of Value Investing also has numerous simple explanations of various ratios and techniques for the value investor to apply: for example it explains P/E ratios and analysis techniques to help the investor understand precisely what these terms mean.

Key Investing Messages from The Little Book of Value Investing

  • Search out investment stocks that are selling for less than their book value or intrinsic value.
  • Also search for investment stocks with low P/E ratios
  • Use investing financial ratios for initial indication of if investment stocks will be suitable for the long-term value investor
  • Apply patience & invest in stocks when they are under valued. Similarly avoid investing in stocks in a hot market
  • Keep an eye on the investing of people inside the organisations. Also keep an eye out for company stock buybacks.
