Giveaway: The 4 Weeks of Dividend Winners – Week 1
- 26 Comment
 |
Welcome to week 1 of The 4 Weeks of Dividend Christmas. I have managed to get my hands on 4 different books – all of them focused on investing and all of them covering dividend investing in one way or another. I will be giving these 4 books away over the next 4 weeks – one per week – to readers of this blog. I will get to how to enter in a moment, but first want to introduce this week’s book. It is Christopher H. Browne’s The Little Book of Value Investing
Browne is a Managing Director of Tweedy, Browne Company which is well known its deep value investing philosophies, and more recently writing about a topic near and dear to my heart – the impacts of dividends on investment performance (pdf) – which I recently featured in a Weekly Roundup. Most notably, Tweedy, Browne have counted Benjamin Graham as a client and follows his teachings in their mutual funds.
The book is very easy to read and to understand. It covers topics such as looking for stocks on sale, determining what a stock is worth, managing risk, and company evaluation. It is not a checklist type of book giving readers a cookie cutter approach, but more of a commentary on how and why the value approach works.
How to Win the Book!

Darn, how fair is it to change the rules? That certainly decreases my chances of winning the book. ;oP
