      Book Presentation How To Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett by Timothy Vick

      Important Note About This Ebook

      Summary of How To Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett (Timothy Vick)

      Principle #1: Have a Street Smart Investment Philosophy.

      Principle #2: Analyze all potential investments astutely.

      Principle #3 : Avoid getting into loss situations religiously.

      Principle #4: Obey the general rules of good investment strategy.

      Book Abstract

      MAIN IDEA

      Warren Buffett’s track record as an investor speaks for itself – he quite simply has no equals.

      So how does he pick which stocks to invest in? The core strategy he uses is built around four clear and consistent principles:

      Have the right investment philosophy – which will encompass everything from a long-term viewpoint to a feel for the numbers.

      Analyze potential investments astutely – looking at earnings, return-on-equity and book value rather than stock price.

      Avoid getting into a loss situation carefully and judiciously

      Take into account and follow the general rules of good investment strategy – a mindset more than anything else.

      Clearly, then, any investor aspiring to emulate Buffett’s results must first attempt to understand why he picks some stocks to invest in and not others. As Warren Buffett himself has stated on a number of occasions, investing doesn’t have to be a difficult or complicated activity so long as you are prepared to develop the right kind of intellectual framework.
