The finance world is complicated and can be very intimidating

stock. It provides general market knowledge and after looking at successful
strategies of the greatest investors it proposes a strategy for investing in
the stock market.

The purpose of this paper is to see what worked for the best,
and what worked historically, combine the data and come up with a strategy that
may not work 100% of the time, but overall provides a positive return.
|
Methodology
|
This paper is based on internal and external secondary
sources. We have used the inductive approach and most our data is
qualitative.
|
Theories

Our theories are based on security analysis and mostly on
Fundamental analysis.
|
Empirical Data
|
Our empirical data consists of strategies used by successful
investors: Benjamin Graham, Philip Fisher and Warren Buffett. As well as
internal reports from S&P and Reuters.

Conclusion

Our proposed strategy advocates investing in undervalued growth
stocks with strong fundamentals for the long run.
