Business-valuation

Everything you need to know about how to value a stock is inside this book - somewhere. Finding it however, can be a problem, as it sometimes seems that the editors used the random dart theory of selection in putting together the chapters. For example, in order to understand the concepts presented in Chapter two, you need information that is contained in Chapters three and five. Once you figure out how to navigate it, though, this book is a valuable resource and a powerful educational tool for investors from neophyte to intermediate. It's encyclopedic in its scope, and the pages in the included glossary are sure to become dog-eared from use. We [...] recommend this book to investors of all levels. Beginners will learn critical concepts and terms, while more experienced investors will come to rely on this book as a trusted reference companion.

This book is the best book on the stock market since a random walk down Wall Street. Its very basic, and has some good humor to it. The book is very detailed on many areas. It espically has helped me when I decided whether or not to investe in companies such as Oakley, Coca-Cola, Microsoft, and McDonald's. The Streetsmart Guide to Valuing a Stock helps me with just this. I now know if a stock is extremely over-rated or would be a good buy. I would like to esp. express my congrats to the 3 Penn State professors who wrote this book!!!

This book offers an economically sound approach to stock valuation. The associated free website is also very useful.
