The Quality Growth Investor - 2024 Edition: The Ultimate Playbook For Quality Growth Investing Paperback – November 11, 2023

I run my investment advisor firm and I have read perhaps 50-100 investing-related books. I would rank this as top 10 among all I have read. This is a very concise and high-quality book, in particular, if you are applying the quality investing style. Fundamentally, the author emphasizes the use of Free Cash Flow to measure a company, including ROI, Growth, Consistency, etc. He suggested several frameworks that I think are very relevant and applicable. Recommended.

I’ve been an investor for decades and I am pleased to say how very much I appreciate the book “The Quality Growth Investor 2024 Edition”. This is an absolute gem in many ways. The organization and writing skills are excellent, and I have learned and benefited from the insights and practical examples. In a way, this book reminds me of “Quantitative Value” by Wes Gray and Toby Carlisle in that it cites some academic studies on “what works”. Also, it is most helpful in explaining how to think about the most important issues when studying a company and its industry. This book is really the best of both worlds, and it is clear, crisp, and concise. I have ordered copies for my son and grandson whose investment horizon is longer than mine. They will benefit greatly if they learn and apply the methodologies.While you can read the book in an hour, most likely you will study it carefully and make notes as I did. Also, I have set up spreadsheet models to make the calculations referenced in the book, and my eyes have been opened to better ways of looking for high quality companies that can potentially compound value over long periods of time. My portfolio is about to get an overhaul for the better.

Was a little annoyed that no Kindle version was offered and bought the physical copy begrudgingly. Really glad that I did. The book is filled with clear, actionable insights focusing on Free Cash Flow. I've been able to take the author's idea on linearity and used it as lens to study the predictability of companies. Clear, small volume, and gets to the point. Excellent.

I thought this was a very interesting book. For those looking to read about growth investing, I would highly recommend it. The book offers an interesting approach to describing and trying to identify the highest-quality growth companies. While it’s a quick read it’s packed with a lot of valuable insights and real-world examples. The book also shares a global list of potential growth companies to research.

Received the book yesterday. Great book! Exactly what I needed. Learnt several very useful concepts. Will read again to digest. I wish I had read this book long time ago. Never too late. I am now looking for a good free site which provides values of FCF and ROC for companies using the exact same equations.

Well written and explains complex issues in a simple way.

This is one of my favorite finance books this year. Having worked on the sell side, I find it interesting that Wall Street glosses over capital allocation and the ability to reinvest at high rates of return—they only focus on past NTM growth rates and multiples. I love Long Equity's emphasis on FCF and framework for evaluating business quality (especially regarding barriers to entry).

Awesome book! Very easy to read. The author does a great job of going into plenty of detail on each topic without unnecessary fluff. I would definitely recommend this book.
