The Defensive Value Investor: A Complete Step-By-Step Guide to Building a High-Yield, Low-Risk Share Portfolio (Kingham John)(Paperback)

601 Kč

* Uváděná cena platí pro 20.05.2024

The Defensive Value Investor is a complete step-by-step guide to building a high-yield, low-risk share portfolio. Defensive investing focuses on strong, steady companies that produce decent rates of income and capital growth, but with risk often coming from a lofty share price. Value investing on the other hand is focused on buying companies on the cheap, but cheap companies often deserve to be cheap because they are high risk and unlikely to grow. Defensive Value combines the two and involves buying relatively defensive companies at value for money prices. John Kingham explains how to screen for shares with the best combination of quality, value, income and growth, how to conduct a thorough qualitative analysis, when to buy, when to sell, and how to combine your investments into an easy to manage portfolio which reduces risk and increases returns. He also illustrates the method

The Consuming Fire: The Complete Priestly Source, from Creation to the Promised Land (Feldman Liane)(Paperback)

492 Kč

* Uváděná cena platí pro 20.05.2024

Uncovering an ancient foundation myth, and literary tour de force, obscured within the modern Bible. Embedded within the Bible lies a largely unknown story of the founding of ancient Israel and its religion, interwoven with other ancient tales nearly two thousand years ago in the process of creating the Torah. Generations of scholars have painstakingly worked to recreate the "Priestly Source," also known as "P." The complete text has not appeared until now on its own in either Hebrew or English. Beginning with the creation of the world and ending at the edge of the promised land, the Priestly Source offers a distinctive account of the origins of the people of Israel and a unique perspective on their relationship with their god, Yahweh--one in stark contrast to what is found when we read the Bible now. With a translation by Liane Feldman, an authority on the text,
