It’s about winning in a flat market — the sort of knowledge that can make you a lot of money. In his book, Katsenelson reminds us that investing returns come in three ways: more earnings, more dividends, or a higher price-to-earnings ratio. I’m a dividend guy, so Katsenelson had me when he declared that ‘the importance of dividends quadruples in sideways markets, where they historically represent more than 90% of total return.’ Amen, brother! There are a lot of ‘little books’ out there, but \u003ci\u003eThe Little Book of Sideways Markets\u003c\/i\u003e offers excellent advice, reads easily, and will help you sidestep a potentially frustrating market.”(\u003cb\u003eMotley Fool)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e“Offers guidance on the discipline of selecting stocks, as well as wisdom on the challenges of knowing when to sell.

Katsenelson takes his reader step by step into the mind of the value investor by relating, in a fictional addendum to \u003ci\u003eFiddler on the Roof,\u003c\/i\u003e the story of Tevye’s purchase of Golde, the cow. He also describes his own big-time gambling evening (he was willing to lose a maximum of $40) and that of a half-drunken, rowdy fellow blackjack player to stress the importance of process. He then moves on to the fundamental principles of active value investing.  What differentiates this book from so many others on value investing is that it describes, sometimes through the use of case studies, the thinking of a value investor. Not just his models or his metrics but his assessments. Katsenelson is an empiricist who weighs facts, looks for contraindications, and makes decisions. He makes value investing come alive.  This may be a little book, but it’s packed with insights for both novices and experienced investors. And it is a delight to read.” \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003e(S\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eeeking Alpha)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xxii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction xxiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter One Fasten Your Seat Belt 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Two A Sideways View of the World 9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Three Don’t Shoot the Messenger 23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Four Tevye Was a Rich Man 41\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Five What We Can Learn from Gamblers 59\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Six Brought to You by the Letter “Q” (for Quality) 65\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Seven Brought to You by the Letter “G” (for Growth) 87\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Eight Brought to You by the Letter “V”(for Valuation) 105\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Nine Add It Up 117\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Ten Nip\/Tuck 133\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Eleven The Born-Again Value Investor 143\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Twelve Applying Darwinism to the Sales Process 161\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Thirteen You Are Not As Dumb—or Smart—As You Think 175\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Fourteen On a Scavenger Hunt for Stocks 181\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Fifteen Farewell, Blissful Ignorance 189\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Sixteen Think Different 211\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter Seventeen I Could Be Wrong, but I Doubt It 223\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Wiley \u0026 Sons Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49402461061463,"sku":"9780470932933","price":17.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780470932933.jpg?v=1730480477","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-little-book-of-sideways-markets-9780470932933","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
