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
"Thoroughly enjoyable . . for the thoughtful and often entertaining way in which it is delivered. . . Katsenelson takes his reader step by step into the mind of the value investor by relating, in a fictional addendum to Fiddler on the Roof, 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."

Reviews for The Little Book of Sideways Markets
1 rating1 review
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The author suggests that sideways markets will be a main feature of the coming decade. At first it appears that he bases his opinion on the historic record, since from 1900 onwards markets have almost always gone sideways for a number of years after periods of fast growth and resulting high valuations. However, from chapter 15 onwards he provides a useful macroeconomic section that bolsters his argument with a reflection on the world's 2nd and 3rd largest ecomomies (China and Japan) with regard to growth and debt. Basically he is saying that debt levels are very high everywhere (particularly Japanese government debt) and that we have now reached a global limit in new debt issuance. For here onwards debt is either reduced (deflation) or paid back in devalued currency (inflation) but whichever route is taken he foresees a bumpy ride, hence the sideways market.The book covers at some length the techniques of value investing to provide protection in most economic environments and in this respect is similar to Anthony Bolton's book "Investing Against the Tide" although he doesn't attach much importance to interviewing management but does agree with strong balance sheets and a defensible competitive advantage.Overall an excellent new book portraying the risks of extrapolating data.
