It is just so interesting to read how Darvas started in stock market investing. First, he was clueless about the stock market so he was asking others for hot tips. Since they were all amateurs, these tips did not bring him much success. So he moved on to asking professionals for hot tips. To his surprise, they did not work either. Reading his story makes me laugh because people still keep doing this even though there is so much information available now on the stock market. All it takes is a trip to the bookstore. When Darvas was playing the stock market, he had to learn the hard way because of the lack of information.

After failing, he needed to learn how to think for himself. He developed a techno-fundamentalist theory where he decided to take a 20-year view. This did not mean he wanted to hold the stock for 20 years. It meant that the stocks had a bright future. This is just a fabulous story of a person who started with zero knowledge and built himself up to a successful operator. I recommend this book to any investor.
