Stock Valuation

Accessible to sophisticated investors and indispensable for investment professionals, Stock Valuation features:

• Step-by-step examination of the building blocks of accurate valuation, leading to the construction and implementation of a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model

• An instructive chapter-by-chapter valuation study of an actual company, providing examples of each concept applied in a real-life situation

• Strategies drawn from three investment professionals who have outperformed the markets over extended periods of time--Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, and legendary mutual fund manager Bill Miller

Underpriced companies don't generally announce their existence, but they do exist. Stock Valuation describes the tools necessary to uncover and profit from underpriced stocks, before the rest of the market discovers them and closes the value gap.

Accurate stock valuation is a complex process, in which investors strive to eliminate variation and surprise while uncovering the signs that point to potentially valuable opportunities. And while professional investors know it is the numbers that truly tell the tale, they also know from experience that numbers derived on a spreadsheet often behave unpredictably when subjected to the give-and-take of the market.

Stock Valuation integrates the theoretical and the practical worlds into a single resource for the valuation of publicly traded companies. It carefully explains and provides in-depth details for each component of the valuation process. The book also shows you how to use this knowledge to arrive at accurate stock valuation in the real world, minimizing risk while substantially improving investment performance.
