La obra maestra de Benjamin Graham: la biblia de las finanzas que inspiró a Warren Buffett y descubrió al mundo la inversión en valor. Considerado el más importante consejero en inversión del siglo XX, Benjamin Graham enseñó e inspiró a financieros de todo el mundo. En El inversor inteligente, un libro que se convirtió en la biblia de los inversores ya desde su primera publicación en 1949, presentó su filosofía, basada en el concepto de "invertir en valor". A lo largo de sus páginas, Graham explica a los inversores cómo evitar errores de estrategia, al tiempo que describe cómo desarrollar un plan racional para comprar acciones y aumentar su valor. Todo ello pensando en el largo plazo, pues se trata de un método dirigido a inversores y no a especuladores: mientras que el especulador sólo tiene en cuenta las tendencias del mercado, el inversor obtiene sus beneficios con base en la disciplina y la investigación. En este bestseller internacional, Graham demuestra que lo más importante para planificar una estrategia de inversión no es la maximización de los beneficios, sino la minimización de las pérdidas. Con el paso de los años, el mercado ha ido dando la razón a todas y a cada una de las estrategias planteadas por Benjamin Graham, cuya obra sigue siendo una referencia ineludible. Esta edición, además, cuenta con la valiosa aportación del periodista financiero Jason Zweig, quien se ha encargado de comentar y actualizar el texto, trazando paralelismos entre los ejemplos aportados por Graham y las situaciones reales vividas en el mundo de las finanzas en los últimos años. El inversor inteligente, además de ser un clásico atemporal e imprescindible en cualquier biblioteca que se precie, es la obra más importante que se puede leer para proteger nuestras inversiones y alcanzar nuestros objetivos financieros.

"All investors, from beginners to old hands, should gain from the use of this guide, as I have." From the Introduction by Michael F. Price, president, Franklin Mutual Advisors, Inc. Benjamin Graham has been called the most important investment thinker of the twentieth century. As a master investor, pioneering stock analyst, and mentor to investment superstars, he has no peer. The volume you hold in your hands is Graham's timeless guide to interpreting and understanding financial statements. It has long been out of print, but now joins Graham's other masterpieces, The Intelligent Investor and Security Analysis, as the three priceless keys to understanding Graham and value investing. The advice he offers in this book is as useful and prescient today as it was sixty years ago. As he writes in the preface, "if you have precise information as to a company's present financial position and its past earnings record, you are better equipped to gauge its future possibilities. And this is the essential function and value of security analysis." Written just three years after his landmark Security Analysis, The Interpretation of Financial Statements gets to the heart of the master's ideas on value investing in astonishingly few pages. Readers will learn to analyze a company's balance sheets and income statements and arrive at a true understanding of its financial position and earnings record. Graham provides simple tests any reader can apply to determine the financial health and well-being of any company. This volume is an exact text replica of the first edition of The Interpretation of Financial Statements, published by Harper & Brothers in 1937. Graham's original language has been restored, and readers can be assured that every idea and technique presented here appears exactly as Graham intended. Highly practical and accessible, it is an essential guide for all business people--and makes the perfect companion volume to Graham's investment masterpiece The Intelligent Investor.
