More About This Book

Overview

Legendary value investor Sir John Templeton knew the secret of earning consistent profits: In times of maximum pessimism, recognize what your long-term opportunities are-and be ready to pounce. This book shows you where today's long-term opportunities are, so you can earn outsized profits when the "herd" is running away in terror.

Lauren Templeton Capital Management's Scott Phillips identifies six powerful value investing themes for the 2010s: areas of long-term growth that become even more compelling in volatile or bear markets. This is value investing for the 2010s: a set of emerging opportunities you can profit from, while other investors are selling in fear!
