Forfatter kunne også spart seg for tiraden mot kvaliteten på det amerikanske skolesystemet og hva som kan gjøres for å bedre det. Det kommer litt utav det blå, og burde vært hagesakset ut. Regardless, I shall still be a bit sceptic, since I haven’t gotten to apply this formula yet. Hence, I gave it one less star. However the examples provided to explain some these concepts are over simplified. And there is this childish tone that runs throughout the book which is really irritating. What a waste of time. I’m not sure I should even call it a book. It sounded like some unnecessarily long and underwhelming blog post. Too repetitive and poorly written. Extremely pointless conclusions, e.g. “If you answered that 30% is obviously better than 20% and 10% you would be correct!” Seriously? After some digging, I found that Joel has his own mutual fund with holdings chosen using the Magic Formula: https://www.google.com/finance?q=MUTF...

Positivt: prinsippene er gode. Enkel og grei formel som bunner ut i at man skal kjøpe kvalitet til en billig penge, for så å vente til resten av tomsingene på markedet skjønner at aksjen er kvalitet. For det vil de skjønne, men det kan ta litt tid. Den er grei. I read this book after reading 'the intelligent investor', and had to get used to the simplicity in which this book is told. At first I liked it, because it is almost straight forward what he is telling, but it gets kind of annoying at the second half of the book.

As the title hints, this one is centered around a set of simple strategies (called the “magic formula”) that helps investors beat the market. The author pulls no punches here — he readily admits the pros and cons of such a strategy and invites readers to try their hand at it, despite the fact that it doesn’t necessarily win all the time. Me parece un buen libro de iniciación al análisis empresarial, para alguien que no sabe nada de como estudiar la situación de una empresa me parece ideal. this is a very fun, easy to follow book to have on your shelf and serve as a introduction to equities for one’s children. This is a fantastic read. It's short and succinct. I like that Joel uses humorous writing to make something accounting less boring.

Para mi gusto son demasiadas páginas (y eso que es corto) para decirte que inviertas en las empresas con mejor rentabilidad y retornos sobre el capital a la vez. I'm far from a financial expert (don't ask me about my own portfolio... I tend to leave money in CDs and mutual funds and forget about it). However, I have done a bit of reading, and know enough to smell BS or something that has the ring of truth.I tillegg er første del av boka litt dryg hvis man kjenner prinsippene rundt aksjehandel og markedspsykologien sånn noenlunde. Det er som å være ferdig med grunnskolen, og plutselig skal du tilbake til å høre på "Per har to epler. Så får han et eple til" osv. Placed a pretty good foundation for what it means to buy businesses at bargain prices. Because you always hear about it but never actually know what criteria a business has to pass to be consider good while also being undervalued thus being sold at a bargain price.

The author is really humorous as well! Seriously sounds like he’s messing around with their kids while teaching them some important things, and thereby, the book wouldn’t feel boring at any point in time. I highly appreciate the author’s funny narration, and it genuinely does seem like the book and the formula taught in the book are extremely valuable and helpful if one is willing to be patient.Negativt: en tredjedel uti boka var jeg lut lei av å høre de tre ordene "the magic formula". Halvveis uti boka var de tre ordene mitt personlige Vietnam, og mot slutten hadde jeg mer lyst til å hoppe utfor verandaen enn å høre de tre ordene én gang til. Jeg har ikke holdt tellinga, men min indre Lilli Bendriss sier meg at de tre ordene er nevnt ca. 4568 ganger ila. boka. PDF / EPUB File Name: The_Little_Book_That_Still_Beats_the_Marke_-_Joel_Greenblatt.pdf, The_Little_Book_That_Still_Beats_the_Marke_-_Joel_Greenblatt.epub In a net shell, he is promoting a strategy he calls "Magic Formula Investing". Building on the time-tested strategies of Ben Graham and Warren Buffet, Joel tells us to invest in companies that return very high return on capital AND high profit per share. It’s sometimes a bit confusing that solid investing can be so simple. But this book, and all the statistics and historical data within it, show us that simple really can lead to great results. And results are all that matters in investing — not the level of difficulty or complexity of one's approach. This book is just so damn good! It’s simple to read. Extreme laymen like me should find no difficulty in understanding the concepts of this book.
