Great Book
As someone who is trying to break into the research industry, I have read many other finance books but this one is hands down the best one. Jim Kelleher does a great job of explaining a wide range of valuation methods and how to model them in Excel, all in a level of detail that makes it easy to follow along. He also shares many of his past experiences (covering stocks like GE, Motorola, etc.) and includes his real life financial models which to an amateur like myself, was very valuable to see. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking to learn the ways of research and also read some interesting insider tid bits along the way.

Excellent Book
This is a fantastic book – Kelleher gives you the tools you need to value equties and also walks you through the steps on how to integrate those tools into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. If any of you have tried for hours on end to get Excel to do what you want, this is a huge time saver. Perfect book for someone that really wants to value stocks like the pros. This book was just what I was looking for.
