How to Invest Like the World’s Greatest Investors is about value investing. A number of well-known investors relays on value investing to succeed. The greatest of them is probably Warren Buffett, one of the richest persons in the World. Why some investors almost always make money in the stock market. You can now learn to use the same investment strategies as the leading investors in the world. See how you can actually benefit from a bad economy and buy undervalued stocks. Get the market psychology on your side. This book is focused and to the point. You can read it fast and start making better investment decisions.
Introduction:
It has been my goal to make this book very much focused and to the point. I have tried to exclude all useless filler text that just takes up your time. In chapter 1 we will look at the most common investment strategies. We will also see why these strategies don’t work very well in real life. Chapter 2 will give you the basic knowledge of value investing. You will get some of the tools necessary for analysing a company.
The whole chapter 3 is about Warren Buffett. We will see how this legend determines the value of a company. For those who are already familiar with Buffett this chapter can serve as a good repetition. The psychological aspects of investing will be discussed in chapter 4. We will also look briefly at the historical side of speculation. There are investment situations when special circumstances must be taken into account. This is the case when you invest in some foreign companies, technology companies and small companies. Chapters 5-7 will deal with those situations.
Chapter 8 is about mutual funds. It is not uncomplicated to choose a mutual fund. Now you will learn how to invest in them the right way. Chapter 9 is named “Your Personal Investment Style”. This book will give you the tools for success. But remember that you will not succeed just by trying to exactly copy someone else’s success. In order to succeed you must combine the strategy with your own judgement. If you want to continue your studies of investing you will find recommendations for further reading in chapter 10. Only the best literature on the subject is good enough. In Appendix there is information about the stock holdings of mutual funds and companies managed by investors that are being mentioned in this book.

Allie Mueller (verified owner) –
The book is an excellent breakdown for the beginning investor. May aspects of the stock exchange which had simply meant nothing to me for years now make sense. I myself have never invested in stocks, but feel that if I followed the guidelines and advice in this book that I could make myself some money!

Mr. Noren certainly seems to know his stuff, particularly when it comes to value investing.
Pros
– The book is well researched and the author appears to have practical experience in the subject matter.
– The author makes several excellent suggestions for further reading on the subject.
– The book doesn’t get bogged down in a bunch of complicated formulas, just practical real world advice.
– Lays a great foundation for a relatively new imvestor.
Come
– This book was originally written in Swedish (The author’s native tongue). I got the feeling that the translator was not as proficient in English as you might expect for translating a book. There were many egregious spelling and grammatical errors – enough to distract significantly from the subject matter.
– Some of the subjects that the author introduced were very relevant to the discussion, but he only wrote a couple of vague sentences on the subject and moved on as if it were just an afterthought. In my opinion these subjects could have added more value with proper treatment.
– The author discussed the power of compound interest, but didn’t even make mention of the power of automatic dividend reinvestment which is similar in concept but much more germaine to the subject of stock investing. I considered that a missed opportunity.
The author shows promise, but I strongly recommend that for future books he gets a translator who speaks English fluently and an editor.
