Product Description:
Buffett is back . . . and better than before!
A decade has passed since the book that introduced the world to Warren Buffett -- The Warren Buffett Way by Robert Hagstrom -- very first appeared. That groundbreaking book spent 21 weeks on the New York Times Hardcover Nonfiction Bestseller list and sold over 1 million copies.
Since then, Warren Buffett has solidified his reputation as the greatest investor of all time -- becoming even richer and more successful, despite the wild fluctuation of the markets. How does this value investing legend continue to do it? That's where Robert Hagstrom and the Second Edition of The Warren Buffet Way come in. This edition is a completely revised and updated look at the Oracle of Omaha -- comprising Buffett's numerous investments and accomplishments over the past ten years, as well as the timeless and highly successful investment strategies and techniques he has always used to come out a market winner. This edition is especially accessible as Buffett's basic tenets of investing are presented and illuminated with relevant and up to date examples.

This was my very first introduction to Value Investing and I was intrigued by the clarity of Buffett's reasoning as expressed through the quotes in this book. However (!) now that I have digged deeper in the world of Value Investing, and have since revisited this book, I see that it is actually little more than a vague overview.
My very first problem with this book is that it doesn't tell you how to practice what it preaches. It doesn't tell you where to find the information you need, for instance what parts of the annual reports you should read, and how to interpret them. In a sense, the book assumes you already know what you're doing - but why then pick up this book?!
Second, a most important aspect of Value Investing is that of valuation, naturally. That is, how much is a business really worth? Hagstrom quickly slings out a few calculations but does not properly explain the reasoning behind them. I have been trying to find good books on valuation but without luck so far. I would instead recommend the reader to do an internet search on this subject or a Wikipedia lookup for Discounted Cash Flow.
I debated with myself whether to give this book fewer stars than the three I gave it. But there are some good points for further investigation, if you're already experienced in value investing. Just take this book with a grain of salt.

Invest in solid businesses that are undervalued, don't invest in 'stocks' or try to play the market. For non-investors who can't study business fundamentals, just invest in a low-cost index fund and leave the money there.
Warren Buffett is an interesting character and the best part is that he keeps it simple and lo-fi. The book basically uses everything written about Buffett and all his annual letters to create a portrait. Brings new meaning to defining a man by his actions, in this case Buffett's top investments over the years are used to build a philosophy in lieu of talking to the man.
Good book, interesting to get persepective on a business mind, not necessarily the investing mind.

I think it is a very good book to understand how the guys thinks about the whole game of investing. You can clearly see the signs of a seasoned investor throughout the book. But how much useful will it be for people like you and me, that's questionable. Imagine if Tiger Woods tells you how he plays golf or Mozart tells you how he composed those lyrics. It is kind of that. I think it is just a knack of things that either you have or you don't have. But do read the book just to get some idea about the financial market and its potholes that you need to be aware of.

I ordered this book and never got it. I inquired about not getting it twice. I think I got bored with chasing it down after that.

Warren Buffet, the world's richest man, without a doubt, is the greatest investor today. Buffet's the only investor using fundamental analysis who can beat market indices. Unlike the vast majority of money and mutual fund managers who charge high management fees and consistently lag their respective market indices, Buffet has beaten the market for decades. The one lesson this wise investor imparts is to invest in only what you understand. By following this discipline, Buffet bypassed nascent companies such as Microsoft, as well as, the dot.com mania in 1999 and 2000. This is when the RMC Q Trader [...] makes sense, picking up where Buffet and fundamental analysis stops. With a Q Trader program you benefit from diversified investment techniques.
