ABOUT
"In The Value Investors, readers discovered that value investing is not a staid and old-fashioned investment strategy, but is dynamic and ever-evolving. And most especially, they learned how 12 leading investors, each of whom has a unique value perspective, have consistently beaten the stock market over the years -- all these investors come from different walks of life, yet they share the same investment mindset. Chapters 1 to 4 covered four US value investors: Walter Schloss of Walter & Edwin Schloss Associates; Irving Kahn of Kahn Brothers Group; Thomas Kahn, also of Kahn Brothers Group; and William Browne of Tweedy, Browne Company. Chapters 5 to 7 featured three European investors: Jean-Marie Eveillard of First Eagle Funds, Francisco García Paramés who was formerly with Bestinver Asset Management, and Anthony Nutt of Jupiter Asset Management. In chapters 8 to 12, the author discussed five investors in Asia: Mark Mobius of Templeton Emerging Markets Group, Teng Ngiek Lian of Target Asset Management, Shuhei Abe of SPARX Group, V-Nee Yeh of Value Partners Group, and Cheah Cheng Hye, also of Value Partners Group. The Second Edition will include updates to all the chapters -- these investors' whereabouts, their current professional and personal endeavors and their experiences in the investment world since the first edition was published. It will also feature new fund managers: Howard Marks (Oaktree Capital Management, US) Álvaro Guzmán de Lázaro (azValor Asset Management, Spain) Fernando Bernad (azValor Asset Management, Spain) A top investor based in Australia."--
