Beyond the Sound Bite: An Interview with James J. Valentine, CFA

Ivory tower meets real world.

Once in a great while, a book comes along that blends the theoretical with the practical in such a way that readers are treated to insights of great value. Such is the case with Best Practices for Equity Research Analysts: Essentials for Buy-Side and Sell-Side Analysts, the topic of this week's interview.

The former multi year II ranked analyst and former director of global training and development with Morgan Stanley describes in five parts how to excel as an equity analyst. Anyone interested in, involved in, or considering a career as an equity analyst (buy or sell side) will have their knowledge and almost certainly their career enhanced. I cannot overstate the usefulness provided.
