Security Analysis: The Classic 1940 Edition

Security Analysis: The Classic 1940 Edition

“Graham’s ideas inspired the investment community for nearly a century.”–Smart Money”Graham’s method of investing is as relevant today as it was when he first espoused it during the Roaring Twenties.”–Investor’s Business DailyBenjamin Graham’s revolutionary theories have influenced and inspired investors for nearly 70 years. First published in 1934, his Security Analysis is still considered to be the value investing bible for investors of every ilk. Yet, it is the second edition of that book, published in 1940 and long since out of print, that many experts–including Graham protégé Warren Buffet–consider to be the definitive edition. This facsimile reproduction of that seminal work makes available to investors, once again, the original thinking of “this century’s (and perhaps history’s) most important thinker on applied portfolio investment.”

From the Publisher

Benjamin Graham is a person. The father of modern security analysis was a seminal figure on Wall Street. The founder of the value school of investing and founder and former president of the Graham-Newman corporation investment fund, Graham taught at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Business from 1928 through 1957. He popularized the examination of P/E ratios, debt-to-equity ratios, dividend records, book values, and earnings growth, and also wrote the popular investors’ guide The Intelligent Investor.

David Dodd is the son of David Dodd. At Columbia University, he was an assistant professor of finance.

From the Back Cover

Graham and Dodd’s Masterful First Revision has been waiting for a long time.

The theory and practice of successful investing was forever changed by the first edition of Security Analysis. Benjamin Graham and David Dodd were compelled to revise the second edition of the book after the tumultuous decade.

You now have possession of that edition, which was out of print for decades. The second edition of Security Analysis is thought to be superior to the first. The second edition was only found in rare bookshops and closely-guarded private collections after three subsequent editions.

Security Analysis: The Classic 1940 Edition will be published by the original publisher. This is the long-awaited book that set the tone for decades of value investors. This country’s financial heritage, along with timeless value investing insights that have proven relevant and profitable in all types of markets and financial environments, will never go out of style.

The lapse of six years since the first publication of this work gives the excuse, if not the necessity, for the present comprehensive revision. The revised text has a number of objectives in view. There are weaknesses to be corrected and new judgments to be made.

In the minds of thoughtful, disciplined investors, the names Graham and Dodd are synonymous. The1934 book Security Analysis made the two synonymous with intelligent, long-term investing and forever changed the face of Wall Street. The authors saw only the weaknesses to be corrected and the book was only appreciated for its rigorous honesty, determined logic, and unequalled track record of success.

The second edition of Security Analysis allowed Ben Graham and David Dodd to set the record straight. It was considered by many to be superior in many ways to the first. As revised editions appeared, the second edition fell out of print and became almost impossible to find.

Security Analysis: The Classic 1940 Edition is a classic investment. The advice that investors should ignore social trends, company prospects, and management styles is as important today as it was in 1940, because of the book’s updated insights and observations.

Benjamin Graham and David Dodd were aware that they could improve on 1934’s Security Analysis. The second edition of a brilliant second edition was published in 1940. Security Analysis: The Classic 1940 Edition was unavailable for decades. It’s more relevant than ever in tumultuous 21st century markets, and it’s the only book that can rightfully claim to have improved upon the eloquent first edition.
