Annotation: Praise for "Active Value Investing"

"This book reads like a conversation with Vitaliy: deep, insightful, inquisitive, and civilized."
--Nassim Nicholas Taleb, author of "The Black Swan"

"Vitaliy Katsenelson walks you through his thought processes in constructing an active value portfolio. There is not enough discussion in value investing circles about when to sell stocks, and this book advances that subject. A good balance between theoretical discussion, real anecdotes, and commonsense observations."
--David Einhorn

""Active Value Investing" clearly highlights that the stock market is not a smooth trend; rather, it has periods of surge and stall. Katsenelson explains range-bound markets and emphasizes that 'valuation matters'--the valuation paid for stocks impacts the ultimate return. Range-bound markets especially require an unconstrained process of analysis to identify undervalued securities, and Katsenelson delivers a much-needed framework to achieve superior returns."
--Ed Easterling, President, Crestmont Research, author of "Unexpected Returns: Understanding Secular Stock Market Cycles"

"A delightfully documented and detailed deconstruction of buy-and-hold dogma. A must-read for any open-minded, thinking investor--professional or individual."
--Donald Cassidy, President, Retirement Investing Institute, and author of "It's When You Sell That Counts"

""Active Value Investing" offers a rare combination of focus on value of underlying companies with appreciation for the effect of market dynamics on portfolio performance. Investors who understand both have the flexibility to succeed in a variety of markets. Katsenelson has the gift of packaging expertfinancial insight in an entertaining and educational package."
--Aaron Brown, Executive Director in Risk Methodology at Morgan Stanley author of "The Poker Face of Wall Street"

"Vitaliy has crafted a valuable assimilation of the primary market metrics that will benefit the active trader and long-term investor alike."
--Todd Harrison, founder and CEO, Minyanville Publishing & Multimedia, LLC

""Active Value Investing" has the hallmarks of all great investing books--easy to read, humorous at times, and, most of all, it demonstrates Vitaliy's investing process in terms accessible to the novice and expert alike. Despite its title, this is a book for bull, bear, or range-bound markets and will be highly recommended to our newsletter subscribers."
--Philip Durell, advisor, "The Motley Fool Inside Value"
