Modern Security Analysis [EPUB ebook] 
Understanding Wall Street Fundamentals

A legendary value investor on security analysis for a modern
era

This book outlines Whitman’s approach to business and security
analysis that departs from most conventional security analysts.
This approach has more in common with corporate finance than it
does with the conventional approach. The key factors in appraising
a company and its securities: 1) Credit worthiness, 2)
Flows–both cash and earnings, 3) Long-term outlook, 4)
Salable assets which can be disposed of without compromising the
going concern, dynamics, 5) Resource conversions such as changes in
control, mergers and acquisitions, going private, and major changes
in assets or in liabilities, and 6) Access to capital.

* Offers the security analysis value approach Martin Whitman has
used successfully since 1986

* Details Whitman’s unconventional approach to security analysis
and offers information on the six key factors for appraising a
company

* Contains the three most overemphasized factors used in
conventional securities investing

Written by Martin J. Whitman and Fernando Diz, Modern
Security Analysis meets the challenge of today’s marketplace by
taking into account changes to regulation, market structures,
instruments, and the speed and volume of trading.
