Construct a portfolio that is sure to outperform market averages
Warren Buffett had it right all along. Now it's your turn to learn how to construct a portfolio that is sure to outperform the market averages, as well as almost every professional money manager in the world. Warren Buffett's method of predictability can determine a future target price, which in turn determines his all-important purchase price. However, Buffett doesn't draw conclusions of his predictability method relative to the future total returns of portfolios. That's where Buffett and Beyond comes in, taking Buffett's method one giant step beyond, proving that if you select a portfolio of stocks using the predictability method in this book, you will outperform 96% of professional money managers over the long term.

This book even takes Buffett's strategy one step further to take the guesswork out of portfolio building. Knowing when an investment will yield predictable long-term returns--and when it won't--is within the reach of any individual investor using the Clean Surplus Accounting method. This method expands on what Buffett has taught us and provides a solid framework for ensuring investment stability and income far into the future.
