Review & Description
Peter Lynch, possibly the greatest fund manager of all time, wrote, “It seemed to me that most of what I learned at Wharton, which was supposed to help you succeed in the investment business, could only help you fail.” Success in the stock market comes from within you and your analysis of your experiences. Success doesn’t come from blindly following formulas and conventional strategies taught in business schools. If business school could really teach you how to invest, you would see a lot more Peter Lynches, wouldn’t you? The key to personal analysis rests in your ability to relate the material to something that you are familiar with. Investing for the Fair-Weather Fan is written to relate the qualities of fundamentally sound college basketball teams to those of fundamentally sound companies, helping sports enthusiasts “relate to the material,” creating a base from which to develop their own strategies.
