Another crucial point: future profits determine the value of the stock; historical earnings are only a guide. The real issue is whether the company can maintain & grow their historical "average" earning power. I think the Buffett letters to shareholders are another great resource.

It was supposed to be released in January I think. Then it got delayed, and now its "currently unavailable" at all bookstore sites, with no known date of when its going to be released? Have you heard anything different? Hey Alex,
