Is there anything more frustrating than losing money in a stock? You spend countless hours working for hard-earned money, you spend weeks trying to find the right company, but in the end, you still lose money.
Enter The Little Guide To Investing.
The Little Guide To Investing says there are four steps for consistently picking winning stocks: find the right company…at the right price…and maximize upside potential…while managing risk.
“The first step of investing is to find the right company,” Danial Jiwani, the author of The Little Guide To Investing said. “The key here is to find a company that’s so good that no one else can compete against it.”
“The second step is to find a company at a cheap price. The easiest way to do that is to focus on investing in companies that earn a high free cash flow yield.”
“The third and fourth steps are to find a company with lots of upside and little downside. Here, you need to find a company with a long runway for growth without taking risks where you aren’t willing to bear the conceqeunces of.”
The book The Little Guide To Investing went viral as it ranks as a #1 best-seller, according to Amazon.com rankings.
The Little Guide To Investing is not without critics. People have argued that Danial Jiwani is too young to be writing books on investing. As a recent graduate of The University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, Jiwani can be seen as being too young to write books on investing.
Some people think that Jiwani’s claim that The Little Guide To Investing is the best book on investing since The Intelligent Investor is an over statement of the book’s quality.
Jiwani, an author and social media influencer, is not an investment professional. But expects agree that Jiwani’s The Little Guide To Investing system makes sense. One former JPMorgan analyst said that “The strategy outlined in The Little Guide To Investing will work for everyone. There is no better book on investing than it.”
Readers of The Little Guide To Investing have found the book to be transformative to their investment portfolio. One Amazon customer wrote, “I have been curious about investing for a while, but I didn’t know where to start. This book was just what I needed! It explained how to choose the right stocks in a way that was easy to understand. The steps were clear, and the examples helped me feel more confident about trying investing myself.”
Another investor bought over a dozen different investment books from the library. All of them went “over the same strategies or [were] filled…with empty words just to make the book longer.” The only exception was The Little Guide To Investing. Jiwani’s book was the only book that wasn’t filled with fluff and empty words. “Not this book. Not this author,” the investor said.
