Critic reviews

"I am an eager reader of whatever Phil [Fisher] has to say, and I recommend him to you." (Warren Buffett)

Very well structured guideline for stock picking. The books illustrates Fisher’s 15 points a stock should present to be considered for purchase. Then, it discusses elements an investor should avoid while assessing opportunities, and the timing he/she should favour to get into an investment.
I’m wondering how the books can still be applied in more developed markets, but nevertheless it is definitely worth your time. 5 starts.
