Money Masters of Our Time

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Where do the richest portfolio investors in the world get their information? How do they figure out where to invest? How much do they depend on fact and how much on psychology? What stocks are they buying now and why? Financial authority and bestselling author John Train examines the widely varying approaches of 17 master investors, including Peter Lynch, Jim Rogers, George Soros, Michael Steinhart, and Warren Buffett, and offers a fascinating look into how they became the most successful investors of the century. Focusing on the principal schools of investing—growth, value, technology, emerging markets, specialty companies, micro-caps, turnarounds, top down, bottom up, and others—Money Masters of Our Time shows how these men's careers illustrate the most effective investment strategies for long-term prosperity and how they can work for ordinary investors as well.
