Value Investing

''James Montier combines a profound understanding of behaviorial finance with a fierce adherence to the tried and tested principles of value investing. He is always readable, thought provoking and, above all, correct.''
Edward Chancellor, author of Devil Take the Hindmost: A history of financial speculation



''James latest effort is a must read. It combines great academic and practitioner approaches written in a humorous and entertaining style. It has practical real world examples that don t require advanced mathematics to comprehend. I advise everyone to read and study this wonderful book. All of my students now have Value Investing: Tools and Techniques for Intelligent Investment to add to their required reading.''
Mark Cooper, Partner at Omega Advisors & Adjunct Professor at Columbia Business School



''A preponderance of evidence shows that successful long term investing requires a strong value orientation and a proper temperament, virtues commonly blunted by behavioural and incentive based biases. Montier, a leading light in value investing and behavioural finance, shows you what s wrong with standard investment thinking and offers important insight into how to improve your process. Read Value Investing, live its lessons, and prosper.''
