An
Extraordinary Rarity: |

"An astonishingly large portion of those trading common stocks don’t appear to know—in polite terms—one part of their anatomy from another." —Benjamin Graham |
Of profound influence, Graham and Dodd’s Security Analysis formed the foundation of a new discipline, introducing to the financial world the now-essential concepts of security analysis, fundamental analysis, and value investing. Graham and Dodd transformed investing from what was often a purely speculative business with decisions based on misinformation, reaction, and emotion to a legitimate science based on systematic reason, logic, and analysis. |
