Graham And Doddsville

(Update)

On April 23, 2010 Bloomberg TV convened a panel of top value investors at Columbia Business School to discuss the future of value investing.  Members of the panel, led by Bloomberg anchor Betty Liu, included Professor Bruce Greenwald (Columbia Business School Professor and Director of Research at First Eagle Funds), Robert Olstein (Chairman of Olstein Capital Management LP), Thomas Russo, (Partner at Gardner Russo & Gardner), and David Winters (CEO of Wintergreen Advisers LLC).

The 21 minute program is a must watch and is filled with gems of value investing wisdom.   You can watch the entire program here.

Columbia Business School’s blog post on the panel can be viewed here.

David Winters, founder of The Wintergreen Fund, was recently interviewed on Fox Business. I was fortunate to hear Mr. Winters speak several times at Columbia.  David Winters is the protege of legendary value investor Michael Price.  Winters spoke about buying excellent businesses at cheap valuations due to the current environment of indiscriminate selling.
