{"product_id":"9781804090572","title":"Buffett's Early Investments : A new investigation into the decades when Warren Buffett earned his best returns by Brett Gardner","description":"Buffett's Early Investments investigates ten investments that legendary investor Warren Buffett made in the 1950s and 1960s - earning him his first millions - and uncovers unique insights in the process.   Using the same documents Buffett used when he made these investments, the author reveals the fascinating inside stories of:- How Philadelphia and Reading, Buffett's largest investment in 1954, transformed from a declining coal company to a diversified conglomerate whose stock went up twentyfold due to the intervention of Buffett's mentor, Ben Graham.   - How Buffett and Charlie Munger made their first formal investment together in Hochschild-Kohn.   - How corporate governance issues actually presented serious risk to Buffett's 1966 investment in Walt Disney.   Other investments analyzed include American Express, British Columbia Power, Cleveland Worsted Mills, Greif Bros, Marshall-Wells, Studebaker, and Union Street Railway. Not all of these investments worked out-this book shows why.   Buffett's Early Investments helps readers understand how history's greatest ever investor really made his returns in the years where he produced his best numbers.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56307405554037,"sku":"9781804090572","price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781804090572.jpg?v=1762803769","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781804090572","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
