ExpectedValue Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Martin Fridson's Financial Statements Analysis: A Practitioner's Guide is a pretty good way of sharpening your analyst skills. I like how the book is written, it leans a bit more towards finding accounting errors, but it is great. I am doing a post series where I summarize some of his ideas and then use current examples: http://streetcapitalist.com/2010/10/11/adversarial-accounting-juking-the-stats/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
