Mizrahi’s approach to investing is not unusual; he’s an ardent disciple of Buffett and Munger. Mizrahi feels that every investor should follow Munger’s view that “All intelligent investing is value investing–to acquire more than you are paying for.” In this book, Mizrahi walks readers through his argument that everyone should look for undervalued companies or value funds. He presents the statistics that show the overwhelming success of this approach through a variety of markets. He examines companies and discusses how investors should be looking at both the products and services as well as the management of the companies.
