"The Little Book That Beats the Market" does more than simply set out the basic principles for successful stock market investing, it provides a "magic formula" that is easy to use and makes buying good companies at bargain prices automatic. Though the formula has been extensively tested and is a clear breakthrough in the academic and professional world, the commonsense method is convincingly explained using sixth grade math skills, plain language, and humor. Readers will learn how to use this low-risk method to beat the market and professional managers by a wide margin. Along the way, readers will also learn how to view the stock market; why success eludes almost all individual and professional investors; and why the formula will continue to work even after everyone "knows" it.
