## Description

Why Stocks Go Up and Down is an in depth introduction to stocks and bonds. It explains the basics of of financial statement analysis, cash flow generation, stock price valuation, and more. Commonly misunderstood terms such as "capitalize", "equity," and "diluted earnings" are explained clearly. Stock valuation methods including price/earnings ratio, price/cash flow ratio, and Enterprise Value / EBITDA are covered. The book is about fundamentals; it is not an investment system or "how to make a million dollars in the market". The subtitle, "The Book You Need To Understand Other Investment Books" says it best. That subtitle is the result of comments received from readers over many years.

Review: A must-read book for any aspiring security analyst - This book educates its readers on fundamental analysis of stocks. It’s a great book for any non-professional analyst who wants to pick his/her own stocks. The book broadly has three sections: 1. It uses the example of a small business to explain how financial statements are constructed and how capital flows in and out of the business. 2. It dives deeper into various types of funding available to businesses and explains the various types of securities that an analyst might encounter on the balance sheet. 3. It uses the example of an actual company and shows how the concepts taught in the previous sections tie together to create an investment case for the company. Overall, I would say this book deserves a place on the same shelf as other investment classics such as Security Analysis, The Intelligent Investor, Common Stocks Uncommon Profits, and One Up On Wall Street. Highly recommend it!
Review: Not a total beginner book but it's worth to read - You’ll have better clarity on the book’s content with prior knowledge of value investing. It can be quite dry for beginners. I first read it in 2016 and found it easy to fall asleep while reading. Now, after five years of equity investing, I appreciate the content much more.

*by A***R on January 25, 2016*

This is a great book for anyone who wants to learn not only why stock prices fluctuate but how businesses are structured. My only criticism has nothing to do with the material itself, but that there are quite a few grammatical errors throughout the book.
