Value Averaging - (Wiley Investment Classics) by Michael E Edleson (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

With the reintroduction of Value Averaging, you now have access to a strategy that can help you accumulate wealth, increase your investment returns, and achieve your financial goals.

--From the Foreword by William J. Bernstein

PRAISE FOR VALUE AVERAGING

"Dollar cost averaging is making a comeback, and Mike Edleson's value averaging approach is dollar cost averaging on steroids. A must-read for serious investors willing to adhere to the principles found in these pages."
--William G. Christie, Frances Hampton Currey Professor of Finance and Professor of Law, Owen Graduate School of Management, Vanderbilt University

"Dr. Edleson's book is truly a classic that needs to be perpetuated. I have spent a significant chunk of my career trying to debunk value averaging, but with no success. I'm a believer!"
--Paul S. Marshall, PhD, Professor of Finance, Widener University
