A simple problem

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on December 12, 2020

The content of the book is extraordinary. Simple and clear. What a friend told me about the book. I decided to buy it. Unfortunately, whoever printed this book did a poor job.

Not for most beginners

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 5, 2020

Verified Purchase

The authors assert (p. 1) that their book is uniquely suited to helping clarify investing in the stock market for the "vast majority of individual investors" who "have no training on how to pick stocks, let alone basic financial
literacy". In fact, the book, while itself competent, demands an enormous amount of time and dedication for these same untrained and financially illiterate investors and therefore is unlikely realistically to meet the needs of its intended audience. It is regrettable that the authors make no attempt to compare "Investing like the Pros" to other works seeking the same objective. Why, for example, would a financial novice not seek instead simply to subscribe to a well known investment letter such as "Value Line"?

At Last, A Book On The Investing Process

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 4, 2021

Verified Purchase

This book is the most complete step-by-step guide on stock picking I’ve read. This book is not a niche book on valuation or technicals, but an overview of the PROCESS of investing. I didn’t realize how few books there are like this. How do you know when your research is finished? What are the pros doing and researching that I am not? What am I missing? All these questions were answered therein.

The authors Pearl & Rosenbaum come from an investment banking background and previously wrote a book called “Investment Banking: Valuation, Leveraged Buyouts, and Mergers and Acquisitions”. Some of the book discusses event driven opportunities that an investment banker would have an intellectual edge investing in (e.g. mergers, spin-offs, LBO’s, bankruptcy turn-arounds, etc).

The most helpful part of the book was the Word and Excel templates the authors use to organize their process. I went to their website and downloaded the templates and they greatly help in streamlining your research. Again, this book’s value was not in the nuts and bolts but in providing a framework to put it all together.

What I like the most is that the book is not a gimmick. It contains no trading tricks or get rich quick shortcuts. The authors provide the tools and a method for you to begin your research and the rest is up to you.

Quite possibly the most tedious investment book ever written

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 21, 2021

Verified Purchase

The Little Book of Investing Like the Pros by Joshua Pearl is quite possibly the most tedious investment book ever written. I had previously thought nothing would ever top the Morningstar Guide called The Five Rules for Successful Stock Investing by Pat Dorsey for sheer tedium. But the Little Book takes the crown. If anything is going to propel you to start looking at Stock Charts, the 50-day Simple Moving Average, and the MACD (pronounced MacDEE), these two books should. Unless, of course, you happen to be an Institutional Investor or Professional Money Manager. Then, the Little Book of Investing Like the Pros would be relevant. But for most so-called "Retail Investors," this book is going to be an extremely tough read. It took me over nine months to read and I had to force myself to finish it.

Now, just to be clear, I'm not saying it's a bad book. The investment approach presented by Mr. Pearl is certainly legit. But as mentioned above, it's geared for investment pros, not the small-time investor. And it's not that the subject is beyond the understanding of retail investors. Mr. Pearl does a fine job of explaining things. But I don't think very many, if any, retail investors would have the time, discipline, patience, or desire to follow the extremely time-consuming, complicated, and tedious process. There's a phrase that became popular a few years back called, "getting into the weeds." That's what this book does. If you thought Fundamental Analysis was tedious enough just looking at Financial Statements and Financial Metrics, wait till you read this book.
