The Intelligent Investor: The Definitive Book On Value part 41. The purpose of this book is to supply, in a form suitable for laymen, guidance in the adoption and execution of an investment policy. Comparatively little will be said here about the technique of analyzing securities; attention will be paid chiefly to investment principles and investors’ attitudes. We shall, however, provide a number of condensed comparisons of specific securities - chiefly in pairs appearing side by side in the New York Stock Exchange list in order to bring home in concrete fashion the important elements involved in specific choices of common stocks | 386 The Intelligent Investor 2.

If our winnowing approach had been applied to all 4 500 companies in the Stock Guide and if the ratio for the first tenth had held good throughout we would end up with about 150 companies meeting all six of our criteria of selection.
