Benjamin Graham·1949

The individual investor should act consistently as an investor and not as a speculator.

Benjamin Graham·1949

All the real money in investment will have to be made—as most of it has been in the past— not out of buying and selling but out of owning and holding securities, receiving interests and dividends therein, and benefiting from their long-term increases in value. Hence stockholder's major energies and wisdom as investors should be directed toward assuring themselves of the best operating results from their corporations. This in turn means assuring themselves of fully honest and competent managements.

Benjamin Graham·1973

Investment is most intelligent when it is most businesslike.
